| «You have sixteen new messages | 
| First new message: | 
| Why do I even bother calling you | 
| It’s been like sixteen times today | 
| I know you’ve seen the line | 
| So stop ignoring me!» | 
| I made a critical mistake | 
| In a momentary lapse of judgement | 
| Now you’ve called me up again | 
| To remind me of the ways I’ve fucked up | 
| So then I’ll take all the blame | 
| It all just feels the same | 
| And we move on | 
| Then I screw it up again | 
| Are you noticing a trend | 
| Should I go on? | 
| So I said | 
| I could be everything you need | 
| If you could learn to be someone else | 
| I keep trying abridge the distance | 
| You keep thinking about yourself | 
| It’s the way you want the world to be | 
| It’s the way you want the world to be | 
| I’m the sinner you’re the saint | 
| You will always have your way | 
| Will you let go? | 
| But when a cynic and a snake | 
| Come together it could take a miracle | 
| But it only lasts so long | 
| I know it won’t be long 'till I screw up | 
| Can we start it all again | 
| And go back to when we were both wrong | 
| Cause we’re both wrong | 
| So I said | 
| I could be everything you need | 
| If you could learn to be someone else | 
| I keep trying abridge the distance | 
| You keep thinking about yourself | 
| It’s the way you want the world to be | 
| It’s the way you want the world to be | 
| And it always seemed too perfect to be true | 
| There’s nothing perfect about me and you | 
| And I tried to see the best | 
| But I saw right through you | 
| And I know I could be better | 
| But you won’t let me forget | 
| That it always seemed so perfect | 
| When I played it in my head | 
| You made a critical mistake | 
| In a momentary lapse of judgement | 
| Now I’m walking out that door | 
| Like all those times before | 
| Guess I fucked up | 
| So I said | 
| I could be everything you need | 
| If you could learn to be someone else | 
| I keep trying abridge the distance | 
| You’d be thinking about yourself | 
| It’s the way you want the world to be | 
| It’s the way you want the world to be | 
| I could be everything you need | 
| If you could learn to be someone else |
