Elliot Smith Everybody Cares Everybody Understands Lyrics

Everybody Cares Everybody Understands Lyrics

everybody cares, everybody understands

yes, everybody cares about you

yeah and whether or not you want them to



it's a chemical
embrace that kicks you in the head

to a pure synthetic sympathy that
infuriates you totally

and a quiet lie that makes you wanna scream and
shout



so here I lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun

raining its guiding light upon everyone



for a moment's rest you
can lean against the banister

after running upstairs again and againfrom
wherever they came to fix you inbut always fear the city's finest follow right
behind



you got a pretty vision in your head

a pencil full of
poison lead

and a sickened smile illegal in every town



so
here I lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun

raining its guiding
light upon everyone

here I lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun

raining its guiding light upon everyone



you say you mean
well

you don't know what you mean

fucking out to stay the hell
awayfrom things you know nothing about
