Matt Diaguila Shiny Things Lyrics

SHINY THINGS
MATT DIAGUILA

YOU BETTER HOPE YOU LAND IN THE WATER
BECAUSE WE BOTH KNOW THAT YOU’RE GONNA FALL
YOU COULD LOOK INSIDE BUT YOU DON’T BOTHER
HANG THOSE SHINY DREAMS ON YOUR WALL

AND HOW I WISH IT ALL AWAY
AND HOW I WISH IT WAS MINE

LOOKS LIKE I’M ON MY FEET AGAIN
MAYBE BACK IN MY MIND
AND HOW I WISH YOU WERE BLIND

THERE’S A THOUSAND WAYS TO KILL A MOMENT
GIRL, YOU NEVER SEEM TO LET ME DOWN
THIS IS HOW I FEEL AND YOU CAN’T OWN IT
JUST WALK AWAY WITH YOUR TONGUE ON THE GROUND AND HOW I WISH IT ALL AWAY
AND HOW I WISH IT WAS MINE

LOOKS LIKE I’M ON MY FEET AGAIN
MAYBE BACK IN MY MIND
AND HOW I WISH WE WERE BLIND

WHATS THE USE IN FINDING ANOTHER
YOU GET SO WRAPED UP IN SHINY THINGS
LIKE A PATTERN SEWN ON A FILTHY COVER
YOU CAN’T WASH AWAY THESE SHINY THINGS

AND HOW I WISH IT ALL AWAY
AND HOW I WISH IT WAS MINE

LOOKS LIKE I’M ON MY FEET AGAIN
MAYBE BACK IN MY MIND
AND HOW I WISH YOU WERE BLIND
