My Crooked Teeth - Something Real Lyrics

I can earn just enough
To go on, take me back to work
And come home
And start it all again

You could be an architect
Or that guy, testing rocketships
In the night
While your love is down the road

I weren't born for life of
Bearing heavy loads
I can't ward off
Each and every heartache
'Till they're gone
Or get to sing songs
I bet you wish you wrote
But something real that I know
I'm better with you now

You took the part of me
That I was somehow proud of being
But life
Will get hard enough you know

I weren't born for life of
Bearing heavy loads
I can't ward off
Each and every heartache
'Till they're gone
Or get to sing songs
I bet you wish you wrote
But something real that I know
I'm better with you now

Something real that I know
I'm better with you now
Something real that I know
I'm better with you now
Oh with you know
