The Way You Found Me

Ben Harper · Both Sides of the Gun [2006]

The more I smoke the more I drink

The more talk the less I think

The less I think the more I feel

Folks don't change they just reveal



So take me as I am

Or leave me where you found me



My mind is broke my last nerve shot

What you want from me I ain't got

Two plus two will never be twenty-two

So please don't tell me twice when I need to do



You got to take me as I am

Or leave me the way you found me



Now there's no rules to lust

Only passion--and it can't be so unjust

If we don't speak we'll get along just fine

Don't ask me how I'm doing because you know I don't feel like lying



So take me as I am

Or just leave me the way you found me
