Ben Folds Five Learn To Live With What You Are Lyrics

Learn To Live With What You Are Lyrics

I know that you're in there

I can see you

You're saying you're okay

I don't believe you



And now that the gig is up

The spell is broken

The fat lady's sung

The president has spoken

These days that you were

Waiting for will come and go

Like any day



Just another day



There's never gonna be 

A moment of truth for you

While the world is watching

All you need is 

The thing you've forgotten

And that's to learn to live

With what you are



So freak out if you wanna

And I'll still be here

Don't call me for years

And when you do, yeah,

I'll still be here



I'm not saying the effort

Is a waste of time

But I just love you for

The things you couldn't change

Though you have tried

These hours of confusion

They will soon expire

Like everything does



There's never gonna be 

A moment of truth for you

While the world is watching

All you need is 

The thing you've forgotten

And that's to learn to live

With what you are



Sometimes everything you've ever wanted

Floats above sticking out its tongue 

And laughing while

Everything that anyone could ever need 

Is down below waiting for you



Know this



There's never gonna be 

A moment of truth for you

While the world is watching

'Cause all you need is 

The thing you've forgotten

And that's to learn to live

With what you are



You've got to learn to live

With what you are



You've got to learn to live

With what you are
