The More You Get, The Less You Are - Anthony Green

There’s a bridge over the other side of town

That I’d cross over if I need to see my friends

But you burnt it down

So I never saw any one of them again

And in their place I filled with things that I know I

I could hold on to

I was only just a child, I didn’t know

What to do with what I had, so I

So I threw it away

I know that

The more you get

The more

The more you get

The less you are

I know

The more you get

The more

The older you get

The less you are

There are fifteen different sides for me, she said

There isn’t anything you learn from being angry

So don’t

I knew a couple people in the program

I knew a couple people who stayed in

They’ll never leave

There is anything I know you can be sure of

Said everything, you spent your life forget

Will all just go away, someday

You know

The more you get

The more

The more you get

The less you are

I’m guessing that

The more you get

The more

The more you get

The less, the less

The less you are
