I start kicking a rock down the sidewalk
It helps, avoiding your eye contact
I'm afraid of what I'll do
If I'm alone with you
You won't admit the way that you're talking
With a lit cigarette, it's making you sick
But it feels nice to laugh
For a moment, see my breath as a mist
Lead me down your path
A strange mystery hanging over me
I'm losing myself in it
But nothing is ever as it seems
I count the cracks in the pavement
To throw a wrench in it
Distracting my brain wave
Is it alright to joke, humor the thought that we're real?
But nothing is ever as it seems
Until you're there lying next to me
Lead me down your path
A strange mystery hanging over me
I'm losing myself in it
To dream of you lying next to me
But I know we'd be lying through our teeth
Cutting corners, making believe
If only anything was ever as it seemed
(If only anything was ever as it seemed)
(If only anything was ever as...)
