The Substance

Verse 1:

I fell in love with expression,

Always learning lessons,

Writing in the past tense,

 

You fell in love with a substance,

Living for the moment,

Walking like you own it,

 

Pre-Chorus:

I got a good thing,

And I wish you could come,

But there’s a gold chain,

And it’s linked to a gun,

You’re popping champagne,

Living like nothings wrong,

But you don’t know babe,

Oh you don’t know,

 

Chorus:

2002,

Love your Levi blues,

Got cigarettes and news,

The talk of the town, I told ya-

Things only god knows,

Now I’m the talk of the town,

I told you things only god knows,

I thought you would stick around,

You love the,

You love the,

You love the,

Substance,

 

Verse 2:

Giving it more juice,

What’s the use,

Always light another fuse,

Guess you got nothing to lose,

I pray to god every night,

And I hope you’re alright,

You brought my faith back,

 

Pre-Chorus:

I got a good thing,

And I wish you could come,

But there’s a soul stain,

And it’s linked to our love,

You’re popping champagne,

Living life for the rush,

But still you know pain,

And still I know,

 

Chorus:

2002,

Love your Levi blues,

Got cigarettes and news,

The talk of the town, I told ya-

Things only god knows,

Now I’m the talk of the town,

I told you things only god knows,

I thought you would stick around,

You love the,

You love the,

You love the-

 

Outro:

2002,

Love your Levi blues,

Got cigarettes and news,

The talk of the town, I told ya-

Things only god knows,

Now I’m the talk of the town,

I told you things only god knows,

I thought you would stick around,

You love the,

You love the,

You love the,

Substance.
