Lyrics

You don’t read books and you don’t like flowers
You’ve been looking sad for hours
Maybe you’re down, maybe you’re just you
Pretty on the outside, empty when you look through

Nothing seems to engage you
No ambition beyond getting through the day
Then before I know it,
You’ll up and move away, I know

You love no one but yourself,
Other things just get in the way
Life gets in the way of romance
Things are misleading at first glance

You don’t have hobbies and very few friends
Your life is filled with odds and ends
I want to find the core, to find the real you
It’s almost impossible to do

You don’t read books and you don’t like flowers
You’ve been looking sad for hours
Maybe you’re down, just because you’re you
Pretty on the outside, vacuous when you look through
