The Max Levine Ensemble - Small Talk (Blah, Blah, Blah) lyrics

My how things get stranger These inherited behaviors I couldn't say where we got 'em And i am as much a product as the remainder Of all the advice of the strangers That i never wanted As concerned as we were when we learned How things could turn around I think we preferred the words we heard about To the ones we're exposed to Though i have heard some things about a million times I still find not a lot to respond to... So we don't talk Though it seems to be The one true cure for the disease That tears relationships apart Though you'll say something like "how's it going" Watch me cringe I never want to hear those words again And when i said "shut up," I just couldn't stand To talk through the white noise again When you had no idea how much It burns me to hear you say "hey how are you" What's that mean? Oh sad silent human beings Your immortal trait Your most tragic flaw
