Everything Is Illuminated
Lyrics
Hey Bella
I can't change the weather
Darling if it
Rains, it pours
It's always been the same
Send a line I can tether
Can I make this better?
Would I choose to
Compromise my place in this old game
And so it's true what they say
It's easier to look the other way
But equally as damaging to say
"I'm so woke!" "I'm so woke!"
And we convince ourselves today
Is different from our yesterday
Then get straight back in line
Have we gone back in time?
Have we gone back in time?
And we're not better
Keeping lies in the cellar
Underneath the
Bricks and boxes 'til they go astray
Do you think of me lesser?
Watch me laying
Down my pride in vain cuz
When you pull the reins
I'll run away
And so it's true what they say
It's easier to run the other way
But equally as damaging to pray
For some love
For some love
And we convince ourselves today
Is different from our yesterday
Then get straight back in line
Have we gone back in time?
Yeah! yeah!
Have we gone back in time?
Have we gone back in time?
Have we gone back in time?
Ooh oh
And so we convince ourselves
But it's never any help
Cuz I am tired of being so denied
And so it's true what they say
It's easier to run the other way
But equally as damaging to pray
For some love
For some love
And we convince ourselves today
Is different from our yesterday
Then get straight back in line
Have we gone back in time?
Yeah! yeah!
Have we gone back in time?
Hey Bella
I can't change the weather
Darling if it
Rains, it pours
It's always been the same
Send a line I can tether
Can I make this better?
Would I choose to
Compromise my place in this old game
And so it's true what they say
It's easier to look the other way
But equally as damaging to say
"I'm so woke!" "I'm so woke!"
And we convince ourselves today
Is different from our yesterday
Then get straight back in line
Have we gone back in time?
Have we gone back in time?
And we're not better
Keeping lies in the cellar
Underneath the
Bricks and boxes 'til they go astray
Do you think of me lesser?
Watch me laying
Down my pride in vain cuz
When you pull the reins
I'll run away
And so it's true what they say
It's easier to run the other way
But equally as damaging to pray
For some love
For some love
And we convince ourselves today
Is different from our yesterday
Then get straight back in line
Have we gone back in time?
Yeah! yeah!
Have we gone back in time?
Have we gone back in time?
Have we gone back in time?
Ooh oh
And so we convince ourselves
But it's never any help
Cuz I am tired of being so denied
And so it's true what they say
It's easier to run the other way
But equally as damaging to pray
For some love
For some love
And we convince ourselves today
Is different from our yesterday
Then get straight back in line
Have we gone back in time?
Yeah! yeah!
Have we gone back in time?
