The Censor - Cursive

It’s not a song about old friends

Backstabbers, leeches, or cretins

It’s not about you, and it isn’t true

It’s not a song about family

How the lack thereof can be crippling

It’s not about, and it isn’t true

These songs are getting smothered

By the consideration of others

It’s not a song about another girl

An old flame I’d like to rekindle

It’s not about you, and it isn’t true

It’s not about our conversations

(don't worry, I’m not taping)

It’s not about you, and it isn’t true

Some stories can get so dull

So you get a little personal…

Lately, I’ve been afraid

Maybe I say too much

Maybe the ones involved are feeling the rub

-- while I play dumb

I’m sure this sentiment

Could come off as arrogant;

To assume you’re all hung up

On such triflin' melody

It’s not you -- it’s me with whom I’m concerned…

What have I done?
