The Avett Brothers - True Sadness lyrics

Artist: The Avett Brothers

album: True Sadness


You were a friend to me
When my wheels were off the track
And though you say there is no need
But I intend to pay you back
When my mind was turning loose
And all my thoughts were turning black
You shined a light on me
And I intend to pay you back
But I still wake up
Shaken by dreams
And I hate to say it
But the way it seems
Is that no one is fine
Take the time to peel a few layers
And you will find
True sadness
♪
When I was a child
I depended on a bottle
Full-grown I've been known
To lean on a bottle
But you're the real deal
In a world of imposters
And I've seen the program
Make men out of monsters
'Cause I still wake up
Shaken by dreams
And I hate to say it
But the way it seems
Is that no one is fine
Take the time
To peel a few layers
And you will find
True sadness
♪
Angela became a target
As soon as her beauty was seen
By young men who try to reduce her down
To a scene on an X-rated screen
Is she not more than the curve of her hips?
Is she not more than the shine on her lips?
Does she not dream to sing
And to live
And to dance down her own path
Without being torn apart?
Does she not have a heart?
I cannot go on
With this evil inside me
I step out my front door
And I feel it surround me
Just know the kingdom of God is within you
Even though the battle
Is bound to continue
'Cause I still wake up
Shaken by dreams
And I hate to say it
But the way it seems
Is that no one is fine
Take the time
To peel a few layers
And you will find
True sadness
True sadness
True true sadness
