From Under The Cork Tree (2005)
I confess, I messed up
Dropping "I'm sorry" like you're still around
And I know you dressed up
"Hey kid, you'll never live this down"
You're just the girl all the boys want to dance with
And I'm just the boy who took too many chances
I'm sleeping on your folks' porch again, dreaming
She said, she said, she said, "Why don't you just drop dead?"
I don't blame you for being you
But you can't blame me for hating it
So say, what are you waiting for?
Kiss her, kiss her
I set my clocks early cause I know I'm always late
Write me off, give up on me
'Cause darling what did you expect
I'm just off, a lost cause, a long shot, don't even take this bet
You can make all the moves, you can aim all the spotlights
Get all the sighs and the moans just right
I'm sleeping on your folks' porch again, dreaming
She said, she said, she said, "Why don't you just drop dead?"
I don't blame you for being you
But you can't blame me for hating it
So say, what are you waiting for?
Kiss her, kiss her
I set my clocks early cause I know I'm always late
I'm just always on
You said you'd keep me honest
(always on, always on)
But I won't call you on it
(always on, always on)
I don't blame you for being you
But you can't blame me for hating it
So say, what are you waiting for?
Kiss her, kiss her
I set my clocks early cause I know I'm always late
I set my clocks early cause I know I'm always late
Deep inside the black and winding mazes
I'm running from my ghouls,
My own thoughts are replaced by
the hidden faces deep from my soul.
Longing to see time rolling by
to case the thoughts of regret
My bad conscience tears me apart,
how will I ever forget
Dark recollections
gnaw my inside
I've tried to run
and I've tried to hide
Reaching the barrow
of my memories
to lay the final stone upon the grave
Searching inner kingdoms
for control
to put the lid of oblivion
upon the grave of guilt
As I look into the mirror
I do not see my face
Two lying hollow eyes is staring back
with the look of shame and disgrace
My past is darkening my futureas my present dies
Every morning is a step towardsy
the edge of my soul's demise
Yesterday's demonsis like a plague to my mind
that never seems to cure
Imprisoning me tow
hat I left behindletting my conscience
unchaine no more
Deep inside the black and winding mazes
I'm running from my ghouls,
My own thoughts are replaced by
the hidden faces deep from my soul.
Longing to see time rolling by
to case the thoughts of regret
My bad conscience tears me apart,
how will I ever forget
Dark recollections
gnaw my inside
I've tried to run
and I've tried to hide
Reaching the barrow
of my memories
to lay the final stone upon the grave
Searching inner kingdoms
for control
to put the lid of oblivion
upon the grave of guilt
As I look into the mirror
I do not see my face
Two lying hollow eyes is staring back
with the look of shame and disgrace
My past is darkening my future
as my present dies
Every morning is a step towards
the edge of my soul's demise
Yesterday's demons
is like a plague to my mind
that never seems to cure
Imprisoning me to
what I left behind
letting my conscience
unchaine no more
