"Not What It Seems" lyrics - SOMETHING CORPORATE

A long day
If ever these questions were yours, what would you say?
I don't know
But I'm writing the answers on cheap paper napkins
And now he's turning off
Now she's shutting down

No, it's not what it seems
Nothing's the same when you give it away
No, it's not what it seems
It's just what you think it is

And these fights
They climb through my veins like it's mercury rising
And these nights
I seem to remember a home that was better
And now he's turning off
Now she's shutting down

No, it's not what it seems
Nothing's the same when you give it away
No, it's not what it seems
It's just what you think it is

Now he's turning off
This family's breaking down

No, it's not what it seems
Nothing's the same when you give it away
No, it's not what it seems
It's just what you think it is
It's just what you think it is

No, it's not what it seems
Nothing's the same when you give it away
No, it's not what it seems
It's just what you think it is
It's just what you think it is
It's just what you think it is
What you think it is
