[Verse 1]
 It’s hard enough to find the time to sleep
 It’s easier to find the time to dream
 Another night spent too far from the stars
 Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
 It’s hard enough to find my place at home
 It’s easier out here on my own
 father’s love is no such thing I know
 Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

 [bad word] 
 Oh Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
 Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
 To be and I just hope your memory’s proud of me
 I might cry myself to sleep
 And imagine that you’re here with me

[Verse 2]
 It’s hard enough to find someone to [bad word] 
 It’s easier to live life scared to love
 mother’s touch is going way too soon
 Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

 [bad word] 
 No Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
 Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
 To be and I just hope your memory’s proud of me
 I might cry myself to sleep
 And imagine that you’re here with me

[Verse 3]
 You’re not really that much different
 From me
 Oh I’ve got everything it seems but what I need
 Oh won’t you tell me what you see when you look at me
 When you look at me

 [bad word] 
 No Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
 Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
 To be and I just hope your memory’s proud of me
 I might cry myself to sleep
 And imagine that you’re here with me
