Too Bad to Be True

Too Bad To Be True
TJ McFarland

Babe, they don't know you so well
It's okay I can tell
Save it for your time of need
I hear your whisper in a crowd
It's so deafening loud
My ears they bleed

And I hear what they say about me
They speak with such condescending surity
I cannot believe that I don't still exist to you
It's too bad to be true

They have no hope for your life
They cut your bracelet with a knife
What gives them the right, I tied it myself
From your bed you can't see the sun
Barely wide enough for one
I'll be damned if they'll put you on a shelf

I'm just not convinced this could be the end
This logic's too bleak for me to comprehend
It cannot be so that I cannot still grow close to you
It's too bad to be true

There's no look I have to see
There's no word you have to say
I still believe
This'll all pass someday
And everything will be okay, yah

Oh I hear what they say about me
They speak with such condescending surity
I cannot believe that I don't still exist to you
It's too bad to be true

It's just too bad
