Kind of Thing by Elissa Mielke Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hear you calling far off in the distance
And your cries are sweet enough, crash
And all the drunk people cheering all hours
Five minutes I missed when I was fifteen
Trying to figure out the meaning of it all
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you say this is what I wanted
How can I mean it’s God in me
Well, I need something holier than this
[Chorus]
For crying out loud
I don’t need an answer
I just needed to say it out loud
And I won’t stay here
I don’t need your saving
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
[Verse 2]
Here I find myself thinking
What if you are exiled
For my presumably sinful way of living
When I really am the freest of thеm all
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you say this is what I wanted?
How could you say it’s the devil in mе?
Well, I need something holier than religion
[Chorus]
For crying out loud
I don’t need your answers
I just needed to say it out loud
And I won't break here
I don’t need your saving
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
[Outro]
How I can’t seem to get over or get out
And everything centres around your faith
But it doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
But it doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
But it doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
It doesn’t it won’t I’m great
It doesn’t it won’t I’m great
It doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
Hear you calling far off in the distance
And your cries are sweet enough, crash
And all the drunk people cheering all hours
Five minutes I missed when I was fifteen
Trying to figure out the meaning of it all
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you say this is what I wanted
How can I mean it’s God in me
Well, I need something holier than this
[Chorus]
For crying out loud
I don’t need an answer
I just needed to say it out loud
And I won’t stay here
I don’t need your saving
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
[Verse 2]
Here I find myself thinking
What if you are exiled
For my presumably sinful way of living
When I really am the freest of thеm all
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you say this is what I wanted?
How could you say it’s the devil in mе?
Well, I need something holier than religion
[Chorus]
For crying out loud
I don’t need your answers
I just needed to say it out loud
And I won't break here
I don’t need your saving
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
[Outro]
How I can’t seem to get over or get out
And everything centres around your faith
But it doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
But it doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
But it doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
It doesn’t it won’t I’m great
It doesn’t it won’t I’m great
It doesn’t and it won’t and I’m great
You’re the kind of thing I used to sing about
