| «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 |
