Text: Matt Nathanson. Other. Church Clothes.

I spent more than my share on temptation
Trying to cool my swollen tongue
I gorged myself on all that free good will
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
And I don't know anymore
I 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
I sacrificed beauty once
To chase after the 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
And I don't know anymore
I wish someone would tell me who to be
Cause I am ready, I am ready to try anything

Want to be brand new
I want to 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
I 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
