Ipso Facto by Eye Said So Lyrics
(Chorus)
Life is overrated
When you have overstated energy
Inside of me
I would be so elated
If I could just relate with inner peace
Inside of me
(v1)
I did what the text book said
When I read how I was supposed to be
It was told to me
It was close to me
In order to form a new life
Had to cut the old one like a pipe dream
When I was nineteen
(Chorus)
(v2)
Some things will never change
That's sounding so cliche
Embarrassing
Redundancies
Taking my time this time
I realize I might rely on planting seeds
That I will reap
For you to see
I'll keep my mind and eyes on
A better time when I loved being me
So hard to see
(Chorus)
I've beginning to feel like I'm winning
Every time I see that look on your face
The gates were open
And I was hoping
That maybe you would see it my way
Instead what we read was the thread
Of another mans test
He failed it anyway
And I can't find no reason or no rhyme
Why you took the other away
You took away
(Chorus)
Life is overrated
When you have overstated energy
Inside of me
I would be so elated
If I could just relate with inner peace
Inside of me

When I read how I was supposed to be
It was told to me
It was close to me
In order to form a new life
Had to cut the old one like a pipe dream
When I was nineteen
(Chorus)

Some things will never change
That's sounding so cliche
Embarrassing
Redundancies

That I will reap

Every time I see that look on your face
The gates were open
And I was hoping
That maybe you would see it my way

And I can't find no reason or no rhyme
Why you took the other away
You took away
