Our Own Pretty Ways

Let's not spill the truth

It's easier being low

You're a shadow of the old

And I want something new

You quit dreaming again

I can see it now clear

But I wake up every morning

With a big black and the blue



Let's take this for what it is

You tell me you have changed

Well we all change in our own ways

In our own pretty ways



It all comes down to this

I'm an ocean you're the rain

The ice is melting fast

But you're not pulling down the breaks

You'll start drinking again

I can see it now clear

You'll wake up every morning

With a new burn in your cage



Even the most peaceful town

Once was a battleground

Well we all change in our own ways

In our own pretty ways



Even in our polished state

Someone dares to demonstrate

Well we all fad in our own ways

But nothing ever changed
