Tomberlin – tap Lyrics

 

tap Lyrics by Tomberlin

 

tap the heart
until i hate myself
hit the square
and rearrange myself
i don’t like it what it does to me
never makes me want to laugh
or sing

do you think
about the trees
in the breeze
how they swing
and scream and talk
and breathe
i wish i was so tall
and green
swing my branches
only sing for me

talk to strangers
like we already met
even though it hasn’t happened yet
will i be found
if i’m never met
did the chicken
come before the egg

i love the people
playing songs in the park
guitar for babies
instead of people in the bars
do you think they know
how good they are
i think they do they got kids
singing like larks
they go

stopped watching movies
that make me feel
and you said trash tv
is the best meal
and i reply well none of it’s real
you said i know and i think that’s ideal
but sometimes don’t you wanna
hit to the heart
he said he only wondered
who would play his part

always wondering about my health
always wondering if i’ll go to hell
should take some vitamins
i don’t know what to take
and i should sleep more
but i’m always wide awake

i’m not a tree
i’m in a forest of buildings
i’m not a singer
i’m just someone
who’s guilty
remind me that i don’t have to be anything
remind me that i don’t have to be anything

i look for signs on the faces of the buildings
i look for signs on your face of us ending
