Matt Nathanson - Lucky Boy (live at Ned's) lyrics

Took your words like you said I should And look at what good it's done me I've played support system, you played victim And look at what good it's done And you trip me up Leave me strangled with your awkward, untouchable lips It's a cruel world, I've found It's a cruel world, but I'm a lucky boy You're so glorious, a waste of time You're the safety in lying You are radiator heat, you're the winter blankets sleep You're the excuse that I use when I want to stop trying And start waiting for the sky to fall They tell me it's a cruel world that I've found It's a cruel world and I'm a lucky boy You're not gold to me I was wrong You're not gold and there'll be Centuries left when you're gone
