What You Want to Hear by The Messenger Birds Lyrics
Can't hold a conversation for more than half a second, all together I stop listening
My friends are all depressed and losing interest in living
You're chasing after something, but nothing is enough
When you don't know what it is that you need
The more you advertise it, the less I want to buy what you're selling me
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
I need some medication or maybe a vacation, some island getaway
I'm not doing so well, and I ain't getting the help here anyway
You hold tight to your scripture like it's got all the answers, your thoughts and prayers are useless to me
I'm living check to check and barely pay my rent, the true American dream
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
My friends are all depressed and losing interest in living
You're chasing after something, but nothing is enough
When you don't know what it is that you need
The more you advertise it, the less I want to buy what you're selling me
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
I need some medication or maybe a vacation, some island getaway
I'm not doing so well, and I ain't getting the help here anyway
You hold tight to your scripture like it's got all the answers, your thoughts and prayers are useless to me
I'm living check to check and barely pay my rent, the true American dream
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
The more you think, the less you'll know
Can't tell you what you want to hear anymore
