She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me |
|
But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving |
|
The good intentions that you had now only came to this |
|
And although she saw the mark, the arrow missed |
|
It isn't exciting reciting the stories |
|
Of kind words turned hurting when routine gets boring |
|
Both getting tired of punk rock clubs and both playing in punk rock bands |
|
The start was something good but some good things must end |
|
And she said, "It could never survive with such differing lives |
|
One home, one out on tour again we may never come back |
|
The strike of a match, the candle's burning at both ends" |
|
And now she knows too much and I'm too fucked up |
|
It's awkward trying to make my move, I'll pretend that I'm fine |
|
Show up right on time but I know I'll never be that cool |
|
I never wanted to hold you back |
|
I just wanted to hold on |
|
But my chance is gone |
|
I know, just where, I stand, a boy trapped in the body of a man and |
|
I'll take what you're willing to give and I'll teach myself to live |
|
With a walk-on part of a background shot from a movie I'm not in |
|
She's so important and I'm so retarded |
|
And now I realize I should have kissed you in L.A. |
|
But I drove home all alone as if I had a choice, anyway |
|
Where are you coming from? What are you running from? |
|
Is it so hard to see? |
|
And if you're feeling scared remember the time we shared |
|
You know it meant everything, you know that it meant everything to me |
|
You know that it meant everything to me |
