bitter truth

Iron & Wine

Our missing pieces walk between us
When we were moving through the door
You called em mine, I called em yours
You make me get so angry
And I d stay there on my own
We both make peace but all alone

Some call it talking blues (talking blues)
Some call it bitter truth
Some call it getting even in a song

I can t read it, didn t mean it
As you would rage how I was wrong
Life is too short, and you d stay too long
Let s be honest, we were strongest
till I let you drag me down
I was sorry then, I m not now

Some get a golden heart
Some get a riverside
Some get a house that lets the years go by

That life is ending, you seem contented
While the graveside flowers die
I call em yours, you call em mine
Nothing makes silence like experience
There s a message in my eyes
You d better love yourself, cause I tried

Some call it talking blues (talking blues)
Some call it bitter truth
Some call it getting even in a song
