Umphrey's McGee > Songs > Similar Skin > Lyrics


You could be right or wrong I wouldn't know
It really shouldn't matter
Maybe I'd be better off to leave it up to you

And if I knew it all along, What could I say?
That would really make a difference
I doubt that you would listen to what you didn't want to hear

It's just a line I had to draw, ‘cause there comes a time
And maybe I'd believe it, when they say that don't need a thing
But all I need is you

It always seems to get better
Do all these things even matter?
We all begin with the similar skin
That will evaporate

It's not story that you tell it's the story that you sell
That really makes all the difference
So I put no significance on what you think I need to hear

If I could turn it all around what would you say?
What really would you think then?
As soon as I could blink again I know I wouldn't change a thing

So you could be right or wrong and I won't assume
But I'll know it by the feeling
So am I too revealing when I tell you all I need is you

It always seems to get better
Do all these things even matter?
We all begin with the similar skin
That will evaporate
