You Don't Have to Be Songtext
von Jennifer Castle
You Don't Have to Be Songtext
You don′t have to be a singer sweet like me
Hanging on by a thread to a heart that's heavy
You don′t have to see all the kinds of freedom
To understand the kind you're never gonna be
To feel all alone like a lone gravestone
With your name carved out of your chest
And your dates hanging off of your neck
After all this time, you still don't fit in
Everyone wants your smile and everyone wants you to win
And when it′s my body they′re after, lord, send me laughter
And honey, don't be long with my drink
You don′t have to be where all the world can see
You hanging off the bottom of a dream
You don't have to know all the ways to go
When all the ways you go ain′t never what they seem
After all this time, you still don't fit in
Everyone wants your smile and everyone wants you to win
And when it′s my body they're after, lord, send me laughter
And honey, don't be long with my drink
Honey, don′t be long with my drink
Hanging on by a thread to a heart that's heavy
You don′t have to see all the kinds of freedom
To understand the kind you're never gonna be
To feel all alone like a lone gravestone
With your name carved out of your chest
And your dates hanging off of your neck
After all this time, you still don't fit in
Everyone wants your smile and everyone wants you to win
And when it′s my body they′re after, lord, send me laughter
And honey, don't be long with my drink
You don′t have to be where all the world can see
You hanging off the bottom of a dream
You don't have to know all the ways to go
When all the ways you go ain′t never what they seem
After all this time, you still don't fit in
Everyone wants your smile and everyone wants you to win
And when it′s my body they're after, lord, send me laughter
And honey, don't be long with my drink
Honey, don′t be long with my drink
