This song is about the difference between what the world sees and what is the truth of a persons life. Nothing is as it seems, and if you envy after another persons life, you’ll soon find that earning the perfect life you want is only possible if you give away your hopes at a fairy tale one.
We move in circles, we move in straight lines
We play across the beat, we play in strict time
I've got a synthesizer, we've got binoculars
I'll put an eye on him, okay I'll make like I am her
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
You gotta give it away, so you can get it for free
I keep trying not to talk about you
But you keep coming up, coming up, coming up
I got a stopwatch, I got a shotgun
They want that real love, they want the fake one
I call it poetry, it's called a pop hook
I'll turn my face away, oh no, I'm gonna make you look
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
You gotta give it away, so you can get it for free
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
You gotta give it away, so you can get it for free
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
When you got it, it's not the way you want it to be
You gotta give it away, so you can get it for free
I keep trying not to talk about you
But you keep coming up, coming up, coming up
I keep trying not to talk about you
But you keep coming up, coming up, coming up, yeah
I keep trying not to talk about you
But you keep coming up, coming up, coming up
I keep trying not to talk about you
But you keep coming up, coming up, coming up, yeah
I keep trying not to talk about you
But you keep coming up, coming up, coming up
I keep trying not to talk about you
But you keep coming up, coming up, coming up
