Lyrics

Key of A  –  April, 2008

 

Well the really good news is, though we have different views is,

Now that you’re my new muse, is my favorite thing.

The rhinestones in your glasses, like the ones on your ass is,

The ones I see in class, is the reason I sing.

 

Since your arrival, the Koran and the Bible,

Now in two different languages, say the same thing

You removed your disguise, has it opened your eyes

To a promise that one night could change everything

Convinced broken ice could have altered the tide

Turns out to only myself that I lied, cuz

 

———- I thought I could buy more time, wrote off the note using my last dime

No one to blame but myself, cuz I let you walk away.

 

Being one of those math nerds, drinking Evian backwards,

Knowing all of the passwords, you never laid claim.

I you’d reach for the skies, you could see through the lies,

That the boundaries of happiness can’t stay the same

Longing to conquer these feelings I hide

Harder I’ve fallen, the more that I tried, cuz

 

REFRAIN: —————————————————————————–

 

Add all the strife, there are worse things in life than me being your favorite mistake

Caution denied, err on the side, it’s a chance I’d rather take. All cuz,

 

REFRAIN:——————————————————————————
