Sweet Words For The Sour

I don't care what we talk about
I won't listen to someone else
I don't need you to hold my hand
I don't care what we're doing
I don't say this to bring you down
I just need you to stick around
I'm just happy to kick around
I don't care what we're doing
Sweet words are supposed to sing
Sweet words don't mean a thing
To the sour they sound the same
Sweet words are the sour and wasted
It doesn't matter which words you say
I'm never listening anyway
It only matters that you see this through
It only matters you're near me
Once you've been to certain places then you know
It's never enough
Yeah, if you're in this situation then you trust
Nothing on earth
You watch the words come out of faces and you hear
Nothing of worth
And if that's true you might as well just make a stand
And take what little pleasure that you can
If we watch while the world burns out
And we don't make a single sound
Then I'll know that you understand
I don't care what we're doing
I don't say this to bring you down
I just need you to stick around
Are you sad when you understand
I don't care what we're doing
Sweet words are supposed to sing
Sweet words don't mean a thing (you watch the words)
To the sour they sound the same
Sweet words are the sour and wasted (you watch the words)
It doesn't matter which words you say
I'm never listening anyway (watch the words)
It only matters that you see this through
It only matters you're near me
Once you've been to certain places then you know
It's never enough
Yeah, if you're in this situation then you trust
Nothing on earth
You watch the words come out of faces and you hear
Nothing of worth
You watch the words come out of faces and you hear
Nothing of worth
And if you've been to certain places then you know
It's never enough
Yeah, if you're in this situation then you trust
Nothing on earth
You watch the words come out of faces and you hear
Nothing of worth
You watch the words come out of faces and you hear
Nothing of worth
(You may as well just take what little pleasures that you can)
