Southern State Lyrics

Southern State - Bright Eyes And Britt Daniel

Well the songs you sung spiraled

And hung 'round like echoes

Or ripples on a pond

 

So you circled the globe

Spent a year on the road

Without ever going home

 

More than a couple of days

Then you'd leave right away

Run to a girl you barely know

 

But you like how she sings

And you can't help but think

That there's something that

She knows and could teach you

While you're sleeping in that southern state

Where the bars are filled with people

You can't hate but try as you try

You still can't relate to them

And you drink that whiskey down

As they ask you are you who you say you are

 

Are you who you say that you are

 

Are you who you say that you are you

 

Are you who you say that you are

Are you who you say you are

 

The fact that you can't tell

Makes us like you even more

 

So now you're trying again

Or just visiting friends

One that just had his heart broke

 

For the first time in his life

He realized there are times

When you can't make it alone

But now you're giving advice

As if you had the right

To use a word like love

No no it's a negotiable term

What gets said's not what's heard

So it's different then for everyone

But you been hanging 'round

That college town

With your new life your new lover you've found

And you're keeping her up at night

Bringing her down

She'll watch you drink yourself to death

But won't ask you is this really what you want

 

Is this really what you want

 

Is this really what you is this what

 

Is this really what you want

 

Is this really what you want

 

Are you just sticking with it now

Because it's all you've got

 

Are you just sticking with it now

Because it's all you've got

 

Yeah that's it I think you're sticking with me now

Because I'm all you've got got

 

Because that's all you've got

 

Because that's all you've got

 

Because that's all you've got
