The Be Good Tanyas - It's Not Happening Lyrics

The way your mind works
Drivin' so fast, carving your way
Through the city

Well, you can't tell me
You get what you want
You've figured it out
And you're just fine

'cause you're talking to yourself
You don't hear a thing
And all history unfolds before you

But you shut your eyes
But you shut your eyes
It's not happening

We all grew up and
We fend for ourselves
And we fend for each other
We fend for each other sometimes

But you keep on racin' and runnin'
Like something is chasing you
Like something's gonna get you
Well, something's gonna get you one day

You're talking to yourself
You don't hear a thing
And all history unfolds before you

But you shut your eyes
But you shut your eyes
It's not happening

And you're talking to yourself
Don't hear a thing
And all history unfolds before you

But you shut your eyes
But you shut your eyes
It's not happening

But you shut your eyes
But you shut your eyes
It's not happening, oh, no, no
