It Doesn't Make It True

歌詞

We can wait for the perfect moment But I say we're in it And I'll take all the punches I'm thrown If it's what I should do, do, do I want to be good But saying I do doesn't make it true As if repeating my questions And shrugging off suggestions Ever got me far Boys to the back and men to the front of the room And if you think that you've got something missing You probably do I know that acceptance comes first And if I want to change then I've got to work Just 'cause I say I do, doesn't make it true Courage is an acquired trait So we've got to admit that We appreciate gained strengths But now we're not nice to look at I've always though that I do But saying I do, doesn't make it true As if excusing my actions And well-timed nervous laughing Ever got me far Boys to the back and men to the front of the room And if you think that you've got something missing You probably do I know that acceptance comes first And if I want to change then I've got to work Just 'cause I say I do, doesn't make it true My problem: sinned enough for a lifetime Take him to the lake it'll drown him Like I never found him So I can't apologize Especially not when I know that it's alright I can trust myself To be playin' 'em carefully Why do I think I'm always right? As if excusing my actions And well-timed nervous laughing Ever got me far No it never got me far Boys to the back and men to the front of the room And if you think that you've got something missing You probably do I know that acceptance comes first And if I want to change then I've got to work Just 'cause I say I do, doesn't make it true
