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:——————————————————————————
FIN
