David Bottrill - Tall Tales Taste Like Sour Grapes lyrics

[Verse 1] Too much patience No resistance Within shouting distance You can hear a blind man's bluff Dragging names through the mud Instead of biting his tongue The devil's in the air and I'm spitting out prayers While the rubbernecks all get their fill [Chorus] Tell me, tell me a story Tell me not to worry or pick up the phone So I'm turning, turning a deaf ear So that I don't hear them throwing stones [Verse 2] Too much hogwash Not enough hearsay Always made the front page You could use a fine-tooth comb To get a word from the wise Would be a welcome surprise Keep an ear to the ground so to drown out the sound Cause the dead air is what makes me whole [Chorus] [Bridge] These walls don't talk Even when somebody knocks These walls don't stand For anyone else but themselves These walls won't fall Even when gravity's failing us all [Chorus] [Outro] Hey Hey Hey
