Not what it seems

A long day
If ever these questions were yours what would you say?
I don't know
But I'm writing the answers on cheap paper napkins
And now he's turning off
And now she's shutting down

It's not what it seems
Nothing's the same when you give it away
No, it's not what it seems
It's just what you think it is

And these fights
They climb through my veins like it's mercury rising
And these nights
I seem to remember a home that was better
And now he's turning off
And now she's shutting down

It's not what it seems
Nothing's the same when you give it away
No, it's not what it seems
It's just what you think it is

Now he's turning off
The family is breaking down

It's not what it seems
Nothing's the same when you give it away
No, it's not what it seems
It's just what you think it is

It's just what you think it is
