Lyrics The Censor - Cursive

The Censor

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?
