"You're So Good" lyrics

"You're So Good"

When you were hurt so subtly
You learn to pick up subtleties
So words that don't mean anything
Become so much so suddenly
But when you're in her company
And she looks at you all lovingly
The things that hurt mind-numbingly
Go back to being nothing

It's nothing
So you light her
And you listen

You're so good
You handle yourself
You don't complain
Like everyone else
You take what you get
And let it all slide
It's easier just being alright
Being alright

When no one looked at you for years
Then only did while drinking beer
You never learn what looking really means
You get an inch, and take a mile
'Til you stop reading into smiles
You never know what someone really sees
And when you tell this story now
You make it seem like someone else's problem
Or somebody's own disease
'Cause it was only high school then
And clearly, you're not over
Every time you got a paper cut
Or skinned your knees

Like it's something
It was nothing
It was nothing

You're so good
You handle yourself
You don't complain
Like everyone else
You take what you get
And let it all slide
It's easier just being alright
Being alright

Just sit and listen
Take what you're given
It's a paid position
Sit and listen

You're so good
You handle yourself
You don't complain
Like everyone else
You take what you get
And let it all slide
It's easier
She broke skin
She never cut deep
She looked so cool
Being so [?]
You took what you get
And you let it all slide
It's easier just being alright
Being alright

Was it nothing?
Was it nothing?
