Only Real When Shared - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

You said you′re gonna let go

And I know what you want

And I came here to tell you

You're gonna get lonely

I know your minds made up

There′s no use in all this

You brought all your books about the wildlife and vegetation

Promise me you can tell now what might kill you

And what might sustain you

So where do I fit in

And how long is this plan

To be living like a runaway

Well you crossed the border

Hours after summer's spurt

Hitched a ride from a man

With more dogs than teeth in his mouth

He gifted you his buck knife

And I swear with tongue and cheek

But you're no stake born into the ground

And now you've got on your brown boots

That your grandfathеr gave you

Told you that he wore thеm in the war

And all I have is this letter

And the ashes of the money you burned

Before you walked up out the door

So tell what happens

When the babbling brook runs dry

And mother nature shrugs her shoulders

And tell me are you happy?

Or is it only real when shared?

Is it only real when shared?

See honey I miss you

And the world does to

Now there′s no saving you

And honey I loved you

And the world did too

Your pride just swallowed you

Pride just swallowed you whole
