Framing Hanley - It's Not What They Said Lyrics

Send "It's Not What They Said" ringtones to your cell

Like a foggy mirror
Where receptions blurred
And things could stand to be clearer
Sometimes it's hard to look you in the eye

If I could be the man on your shoulder
A God as you grow older
I'd sleep so much easier tonight

Close your eyes
They'll tell a story of happy endings
Close your eyes
Rewrite the story, a new beginning

It's not what they said
And it's not what we read
And all the promises they made us
Are left shattered on the ground

Your defense: 
You've done no wrong 
And lived life in innocence
So how could they have looked you in the eye?

If I could be the man on your shoulder
To watch you as you grow older
I'd sleep so much easier tonight

Close your eyes
They'll tell a story of happy endings
Close your eyes
Rewrite the story, a new beginning

{And it's not what they said
And it's not what we read
And all the promise they made us
Are left shattered on the ground}x2

It's on the ground
And when the cards are down
It's safe to say that all bets are off
It's on the ground
And when the cards are down
Well it's time to play, it's hard to say
So bet it all or call

{Well it's not what they said
And it's not what we read
And all the promises they made us
Are left shattered on the ground}x2

Shattered on the ground
And all the cards are down
And everything they told us has always been so wrong
So wrong, so wrong, so wrong...
