I just said I love you to a girl I haven't seen since December, I remember, she was close enough to me.
Now I'm growing up and throwing 'round some words to reassure, that I'll always love her, because I loved her once before.
And I don't care cuz I'm backed into a corner, and lifen's not fair, so I'm breakin' all the rules. Day by day don't walk away.
"you've got a good thing going on,"
I tell myself it's like throw it all away or stick around.
Around away with it I don't wanna stay with it. Pass it on.
Be strong, hold on, not long ago and every day is the same thing, tomorrow is the same thing.
I hold my head in my hand.
[CHORUS]
Everything that I do, everything that I say, everything that I am, everything seems so wrong.
Am I dramatic or am I empathizing with myself? If it's selfish, I don't want it, but I know it too damn well to forget it.
Forget it.
I don't want it anymore, and I just said I love you to a girl I loved before.
[CHORUS]
Everything that I do, everything that I say, everything that I am, everything seems so wrong.
And I don't care cuz I'm backed into a corner, and lifen's not fair, so I'm breakin' all the rules. Day by day don't walk away.
"you've got a good thing going on,"
I tell myself it's like throw it all away or stick around.
Around away with it I don't wanna stay with it. Pass it on.
Be strong, hold on, not long ago and every day is the same thing, tomorrow is the same thing.
I hold my head in my hand.
[CHORUS]
Everything that I do, everything that I say, everything that I am, everything seems so wrong.
