Album: After the Flood: A Compilation to Benefit Upstate New York Victims of Hurricane Irene

(Verse One)

Everybody's trying to mend a broken heart
Buy a little bit of love and try to start
Sew your secrets up with cotton and string
Teach yourself little recipes and things to say

(Chorus)

I'm not like that, It's not like that
I don't hurt like they do
But oh you like that Yes you like that
Yes you need somebody too

(Verse Two)

We put on Navy suits and march and keep in line
And laugh at all the silly people out of time
We count the minutes till we heal it with our wine
We climb in bed with pretty strangers and we cry oh oh oh

(Shortened Chorus)

I'm not like that, I'm not like that
I don't wanna hurt like they do

(Bridge)
They find it hard to be alone
Like every one else that we know
And when our heads hurt in the dark,
We look for beautiful remarks
We find it hard to be alone
Like every one else that we know
We get our heads hurt in the dark
We need some beautiful remarks
(Yes we do)

(Verse Three)

We hang up photographs of people that we love
And when we glance at them we think, "Well that's enough"
But when our mothers call we're busy doing stuff
We'll get back to them when things start clearing up oh oh oh

(Chorus)
I'm not like that, It's not like that
I don't hurt like they do
It's not like that, yes it's like that
Yes you need somebody too
You're just like that
Yeah it's like that
Yeah you need somebody too
Oh you like that, yes you like that
Yes you need somebody too
