Grant Hart - It's Not Peculiar lyrics

Is it sensible, life is what it seems When you're living in a dream Could you care enough? While pausing on a thought Can you think of what you've got? (Only you know what matters in your life) When it's pouring out, you're pondering inside And all the times you shouted, everybody cried You've got to learn to compromise To live inside the others' lives It's not peculiar, there's nothing to devise at all On a stormy night, you're sitting on the floor Is it nothing anymore? Waking up to fix it, making up the fight Will it be one more tonight? (Some things we said will never wash away) Taking all of this into another day Recollections of the words we used to say The times you looked into my eyes Whispered vowing not to lie It's not peculiar, there's nothing to devise at all Near the telephone, it's raining in the fall And you hope I never call Sending messages that never get received But we're trying, I believe (Sometimes we wonder what our lives are for) Taking all of this is taking all of me Sometimes I wish I had the energy When it falls apart like fragments of our lives Give a little bit, and give a lot to die It's not peculiar, there's nothing to devise at all
