MATT NATHANSON LYRICS - Answering Machine

"Answering Machine"



I met a new one and she looks just like you

She gives me everything that you didn't want to

And maybe I don't need saving after all

She sticks in my ribs almost better than you did

And maybe I'm tired or maybe she glows



I wonder if you're still defending

I wonder if you're still defending



Met someone with your eyes and skin

I can convince her of everything

And baby, it's so delicious you should

Come here and see for yourself

"I'm gone", you said, "if this is all there is:

You'll never shine alone



And I wonder if you're still defending

I wonder if you're still defending



You've been so wrong

For so long now



(I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away)



I've kissed others lips

And they promised me healing

It's easy if you try
