Line And Sinker lyrics
by Billy Talent



Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker

Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)

Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

[x2]



Today I don't feel pretty

And i'm tired of trying to fit right in

Don't think that you're so great

Cause being great must suck



We don't always see the bright side

We all need ego suicide

You hung my id today

But I have licked my wounds and carried on



Everybody needs some sympathy

Santa seemed to miss my chimney

Reality is truly scaring me

So stand up straight and firmly say



What you see is what you get (don't you know)

Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker

Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)

Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

[x2]



My heart is in the right place

So wipe that smirk right off your face

Don't make me feel like that

Cause that's just plain not nice



We don't always see the bright side

And I lied when I said I was fine

You slapped my face today

But I have licked my wounds and carried on



Everybody needs some sympathy

Santa seemed to miss my chimney

Reality is truly scaring me

So stand up straight and firmly say



What you see is what you get (don't you know)

Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker

Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)

Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

[x2]



Everybody needs some sympathy

Santa seemed to miss my chimney

You stole my luck from me

And now my fortune cookie's empty

Cause you came and you stole it all from me

So stand up straight and firmly say



What you see is what you get (don't you know)

Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker

Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)

Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

[x2]
