Matt Nathanson - Ernst

Church Clothes

Spent more than my share on temptation
Trying to cool my swollen tongue
I gorge myself on all that free goodwill
And left the others none

What I wear like church clothes
You wear just like jewelry
All the simple things you revel in
They just suffocate me
I don't know anymore
Wish someone would tell me who to be
'Cause I am ready, I am ready to try anything

I'm dazzled by glamour and camera angles
The drama and swagger of fools
Sacrifice beauty once to chase after their parade
Spent my morning after crawling back to you

What I wear like church clothes
You wear just like jewelry
All the simple things you revel in
They just suffocate me
I don't know anymore
Wish someone would tell me who to be
Cause I am ready, I am ready to try anything

I wanna be brand new
I wanna trade in these wings; mine don't work like yours do
What I wear like church clothes
You wear just like jewelry
All the simple things you revel in
They just suffocate me
And I don't know anymore
Wish someone would tell me who to be
Cause I am ready, I am ready to try anything
I am ready, I am ready to try anything
I am ready, I am ready to try anything

I wanna trade in these wings; they don't work like yours do
