Titus Andronicus, Jenn Wasner - To Old Friends and New lyrics

You have got a lot of nerve to
Behave the way that you do
Making me listen to all of your carrying on
You are not the only one who
Thinks that life is so cruel
Me, I have got problems of my own

But, if you talk and nobody's listening
Then it's almost like being alone
So, it's alright the way you piss and moan
It's alright, the way you piss and moan

Like the time traveler who
Killed his grandfather
These cycles are bringing me down
We could build a nice life together if
We don't kill each other first
Are you just too fucked up to understand me
Or is it the other way around?
Maybe it's both
And I just don't know which is worse

So you better thank your lucky stars
You don't know half what I know is true
But, it's alright if you think that you do
It's alright, if you think that you do

Was it the devil, or was it the lord
Who gave you those words
The ones I never heard?
It's alright to kill and
It's alright to steal
If you're willing to hold up
Your part of the deal
There are plenty of things that
Are worth dying for
But, you'll never know until
You open that door
And reasons for living are seldom and few
And if you see one you better stick
To it like glue, yes it's true, it is true

If I were there to keep satisfied
All of your carnal desires
Then it might be my place to
Say what is or isn't forbid
So how can I hold it against you if
You answer the call of the wild?
No matter how brilliant a woman
You're only a kid

But, if you know that nobody is ever going
To suffer for you like I did
Well it's alright the way that you live
It's alright the way that you live

It's alright now
