Righting Wrongs
Listen to the girl, she makes a steady case
From living life in half-wake states you know you can’t be phased
But wearing veils from fairy tales will get you in a jam
The girl’s too good to fuck around she’s where I want to say I am.
So find
That piece of mind
The one that made you what you are
That was you once, it can’t be hard.
Don’t lie
To her eyes
From my knees I will repent
For you my love was never spent.
I won’t numb myself again, I’ve done it once before
If I learn from my mistakes, why am I such a whore?
But taking pills for little thrills and sleeping all around
I dig my grave and dive right in and you know I’m staying down.
You break
What’s at stake
A girl who broke your heart before
But fuck you pal, don’t settle scores.
Damn it, try
For her you died
You said you loved her and know she heard
Least to do is to keep your word.
Don’t you fucking pull that shit
I tried it once, should have known it
That was such a different game
With different rules and a different name
You said these words to win her heart
Went back on them right at the start
So make a choice you know the girls
But only one can make your world.
I’m wrong
Oh so long
With nothing to say right to your eyes
So all I did was apologize.
So scratched
We’ll need a patch
I screwed you over, owe me nothing
But forgiving me would be really something.
Night could turn to day and the slate could be erased
I’ll turn this to a fairy tale cause you’re well worth the chase
Holding hands through our favorite bands is what I’ve got to see
So start the song you know that moves me and make yourself with me.
