So True Lyrics

So True - The Pains of Being Pure At Heart

Written by:Kip Berman

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

Olga steals drinks from distracted men in bars

While she dreams of the soviets return

 

It's the price they should pay for thinking anyone her age

Should hear what they say

 

If you don't wake up looking like death in the grass

How do you know that you're not like the rest

 

And I know that you're not going to rest

 

And I know that you're really

 

So true

 

So true

 

Elva chains herself to a rig in the sea

And nearly dies in the week she's there

 

In a city sick with wealth and little else

 

It's good to feel nothing at all

 

If you don't lose some skin for the things you believe

How do you know that you really do

 

And I know that you really do

 

And I know that you're really

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

Now you're tied to each other

But by winter you'll wonder

If boredom was just an excuse

 

For locking your arms as the black passing cars

Cast silhouettes of your youth

 

If you don't lose your breath for the things you believe

How can you know that you really do

 

And I know that you really do

 

And I know that you're really

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

 

So true

But I could never be I could never be

So true

I could never be I could never be

So true

I could never be I could never be

 

So true
