Have you heard the news
Scandalous noises all around
Everyone is talking
Just like we wrote the story down
I don’t think it’s true
And I know you feel betrayed
But you don’t know half the story

She told me things she won’t write down
Told me things she won’t write down
Things she won’t write down yeah
Told me things she won’t write down

We know you work so hard (you are)
But we never saw the start
Had only the vaguest notion (you are)
Of what was to fall apart
Believing explanations, noting patterns, and marking time
You think you’ve heard it all

It’s too much to think she won’t write down
Told me things she won’t write down
Things she don’t write down yeah
You know I’ll never spread that around

It’s blowing up in your face right now
You’re too numb, too numb to know
Reading the truths already known

Do what you think you know (you are)
And add in that vibe you try to feel
Once you know the story (you are)
You find out what she is is real
Believing explanations, noting patterns, and marking time (you are)
I think you heard it all (you)

She told me things she won’t write down
Told me things she won’t write down
Things she won’t write down yeah
Told me things she won’t write down
Things she won’t write down yeah
You know I’ll never spread that around

I don’t mind that thing you are
But you’re too much
You’re too much alone
(And you go) I don’t mind that thing you are
But you’re too much
You’re too much alone
(And you go) I don’t mind that thing you are
But you’re too much
You’re too much alone
(And you go) I don’t mind that thing you are
But you’re too much
You’re too much
You’re too much
You’re too much
You’re too much
You’re too much
You’re too much
