Nothing's As It Seems

Misery in the morning papers

I've gotta get on out

Because this town is getting under my skin

Twelve rounds with my own reflection

Speakers on loud

I'm crying out but falling on deaf ears

So I take myself out to the after dark

And bury my head in an empty glass

Wake up and waste half the day in bed

And laugh when they say, you'll never pay the rent

Clinging onto fading hopes and dreams

I sing myself to sleep

'Cause nothing's really ever as it seems

I sing myself to sleep

'Cause nothing's really ever as it seems to me

Misery in the morning papers

I’ve gotta get on out

Because this town is getting under my skin

So is it time that I go down under?

To figure myself out

Because I’m tired of falling on deaf ears

So I take myself out to the after dark

And bury my head in an empty glass

Wake up and waste half the day in bed

And laugh when they say, you'll never pay the rent

Clinging onto fading hopes and dreams

I sing myself to sleep

'Cause nothing's really ever as it seems

I sing myself to sleep

'Cause nothing's really ever as it seems to me

Don’t waste your time wishing that you were somewhere

'Cause nothing matters when you're six foot under

Don’t waste your time wishing that you were somewhere

'Cause nothing matters when you're six foot under

Don’t waste your time wishing that you were somewhere

'Cause nothing matters when you're six foot under

Don’t waste your time wishing that you were somewhere

'Cause nothing matters when you're six foot under

Don’t waste your time wishing that you were somewhere

'Cause nothing matters when you're six foot under

So cling on to those fading hopes and dreams

I sing myself to sleep

'Cause nothing's really ever as it seems

I sing myself to sleep

'Cause nothing's really ever as it seems to me

I sing myself to sleep

Because it’s never as it seems

To me, maybe?
