I'm singing this song / but it's about you //
Whoever else is listening / it's only about you //

See there's just one story / and everyone's the star /
and it goes like this //

No one will ever love you / for everything you are //

And so you build up layers of deception /
and you leave out things to alter the perceptions /
of the ones you love / who would never love you back /
if they knew all about you / every solitary fact //

And the sadness of your life / is built upon this lie /
of really knowing anyone / or having them know you //

It's the sadness of the world //
There's nothing left to do //

And so just go to sleep /
Just let the hours pass /
Sleep it all away /
None of it will last //

Soon it's all over //
You're under clover /
and none of it matters anymore //

Jon Brion - Song for Caden
