Jon Brion - Say Anything lyrics

You see me as a judge Though I deny it And hold me like a grudge Then justify it But when you take such pains In searching for something that explains Please, take a good look at our remains Cause if you were everything you say Things would be different today And maybe there's room for compromise But signs that I get say otherwise Say anything, cause I've heard everything As hopeless as it seems I wouldn't worry You'll get your chance to tell Your side of the story While you're raising your right hand Whatever defenses you had planned Remember that when you take the stand If you were everything you say Things would be different today And though I'd be happy to believe I'd have to be much more naive Say anything, I've heard everything... Now I've heard everything... So why do I refuse The truth, when I clearly cannot use The comfort of one more lame excuse Cause if you were everything you say Things would be different today And if you were everything you swear We wouldn't be beyond repair If you were everything you say Things would be different today And if there has got to be an if Get it over with Say anything, 'cause I've heard everything... Now I've heard everything...
