The Censor Songtext
von Cursive

It′s not a song about old friends
Backstabbers, leeches, or credence
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 you
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 long 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 be so dull
So they 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 a trifling melody
It's not you, it′s me
Of whom I'm concerned
What have I done?
