it s not like you

The Paper Kites

It s not like you
To not be around
Cars drivin by, they
Don t sound the same

Still stay up late
And don t get much sleep
Watch late night movies
I know what you say

It s not like you
It s not like us
It s not like you
But I ll keep trying

Might go downtown
With Charlotte next week
She says that we ll just
Try take it slow

Alive like a fool
And I drink like a man
Meet like a shy boy
She understands

It s not like us
It s not like us
It s not like you
And I ll keep trying

But how we lived
How we lived
Really lived
And I ll keep trying
