Fairground Saints - Gossip Land lyrics

[Verse 1:] I play the wicked power to know these stories And people think they got me pinned Someone is always talking out there for me Cause everybody knows my name now But nobody knows me yet It's such a blow to hear all the perceptions Specially from my friend People pay a little more attention Maybe they could get to know me But nobody knows me at [Chorus:] Cause when you look in my face Do you only see the messes I make Oh yeah, cause yesterday baby That I was such a different place Living my life out in gossip land Trying to be a better man Washing all this dirt off my hand Out here in gossip land [Verse 2:] Running down the road in miles a movie Rattling off my sins, it's always where I been and what I'm doing Cause everybody knows my name now But nobody knows me at [Chorus] [Bridge:] Tongues will lash and lips can bruise People only see the things that make them feel, less secure [Chorus] [Outro:] Later we could pardon all these stories Cause everybody knows my name now But nobody knows me yet
