lyrics
Because you can’t never tell x3
Hardly is what you may think
oh we all have our churches totems and scrolls
bibles bottles and pills
we tote the chains of promises and silly pains
we buy into the lil things just to feel that dream
swirl right on down the drain
then we do it all again
Because you can’t never tell
Hardly is what you may think
Seemed like a good idea at that time
There are moments when I am totally blind
and I don’t have a mind
just a feelin
and the tree is branchin open
like the limbs from my my body
and the cracks in the concrete are spreadin wide
The door keeps a knockin and I leave it open but it’s the same ol ghost
you can’t never tell
Hardly is what you may think
you can’t never tell
Hardly is what you may think
Hardly is what you may think
oh we all have our churches totems and scrolls
bibles bottles and pills
we tote the chains of promises and silly pains
we buy into the lil things just to feel that dream
swirl right on down the drain
then we do it all again
Because you can’t never tell
Hardly is what you may think
Seemed like a good idea at that time
There are moments when I am totally blind
and I don’t have a mind
just a feelin
and the tree is branchin open
like the limbs from my my body
and the cracks in the concrete are spreadin wide
The door keeps a knockin and I leave it open but it’s the same ol ghost
you can’t never tell
Hardly is what you may think
you can’t never tell
Hardly is what you may think
