Текст Streetlight Manifesto — The Littlest Things

The first time that he came to me
I was a young boy little did I not believe
I had a hole in my heart and I was looking for a piece that fit
The next time I was privy to
The dirty secrets, all the little hidden clues
And when I added it up, I knew a little, but a little won’t do
Can anybody ever tell me something true?
Preferably something that no one can dispute
When everybody’s spilling lifelong secrets
I’m betting safely on the man who will keep his

Despite his weakness
He’ll take his secrets to the grave
I took the medicine
But the pills won’t work
The pills they don’t do anything
But rearrange all the littlest things
And I know a little bit

But that bit won’t do
The bit I know is irrelevant
So I guess the songs I sing are irrelevant too
Though I know it’ll never ever come to this
I have a secret
And the secret is there was a lie
That I told myself ’til it became the truth
Rest assured there is a plan «B» on my mind
If all the webs I weave should ever come and unwind
But I’ve got plenty of time
I took the medicine

But the pills won’t work
The pills they don’t do anything
But rearrange all the littlest things
And I know a little bit
But that bit won’t do
The bit I know is irrelevant
So I guess this song is irrelevant too
And we will leave this all behind
So get your fill while you’re alive
And I don’t know where the lies end and the truth begins
Don’t listen to anyone telling you anything is a truth—it’s all relative
I still believe
In mysteries
And all the lies
In reveries
And though they’ll lay my body in the ground
I plan to never settle down
