Matt Nathanson - Church Clothes lyrics

Spent more than my share on temptation
Trying to cool my swollen tongue
I gorge myself on all that free goodwill
And left the others none

What I wear like church clothes
You wear just like jewellery
All the simple things you revel in
They just suffocate me i don't know anymore
Wish someone would tell me who to be
Cause, I am ready, I am ready to try anything

I'm dazzled by glamour and camera angles
The drama and swagger of fools
Sacrifice beauty once
To chase after their parade
Spent my morning after crawling back to you

What I wear like church clothes
You wear just like jewellery
All the simple things you revel in


They just suffocate me i don't know anymore
Wish someone would tell me who to be
Cause, I am ready, I am ready to try anything

I wanna be brand new
I wanna trade in these wings
They don't work like yours do

What I wear like church clothes
You wear just like jewellery
All the simple things you revel in
They just suffocate me i don't know anymore
Wish someone would tell me who to be
Cause, I am ready, I am ready to try anything
I am ready, I am ready to try anything
I am ready, I am ready to try anything

I wanna trade in these wings
They don't work like yours do
