| Sometimes you lose your head
|
| Think of all the stupid things you’ve said
|
| Pouring out of your mouth
|
| Like rain through a broken windowpane
|
| Nobody made you do it
|
| There’s a hoop and you jump through it
|
| You made this mess all by yourself
|
| What did you say?
|
| I thought I said everything there was for me to say
|
| How could you know?
|
| I looked into her eyes, I thought they were telling me so
|
| Now I don’t want to be your cause for sympathy
|
| I took my chances, eyes wide open
|
| Stayed too long and the spell was broken
|
| Nobody wants to see
|
| The mess you become so easily
|
| Crawling around and singing your sad songs
|
| Late into the night
|
| Must be the words you’re choosing
|
| The unconvincing smile you’re using
|
| Try and try again, you can’t get it right
|
| What did you do?
|
| I poured my heart out 'til my words filled the room
|
| How did it go?
|
| She smiled and took my hand, said it’s all just a little too soon
|
| Now I don’t want to be your cause for sympathy
|
| Save your tears, I never earned them
|
| Lessons are there, but I never learn them at all
|
| Every night, it’s he same old game
|
| Fumbling around for some stranger’s name
|
| Or going out of your mind
|
| Just waiting for the phone to finally ring
|
| I know life can be so messy
|
| But you can’t spend all your time confessing
|
| Try saving something for yourself
|
| What did you say?
|
| I thought I said everything there was for me to say
|
| How could you know?
|
| I looked into her crying eyes, they were telling me so
|
| Now I don’t want to be your cause for sympathy
|
| Save your breath, I never listen
|
| You think I don’t know something’s missing
|
| But now I’ll wait and see
|
| How it all turns out for me
|
| It’s not as painful as they tell you
|
| Some success in every failure
|
| Now I know I can handle the pain
|
| I’ll stand here waiting, hope it all happens again |
