Taking Back Sunday

All our secrets they are tailored trouble.
Draped loose now around your hips.
You're spotless instincts are valid.
We co-exist.
Got 26 days to work with. (Got 26 days.)
We got 26 days to work with.
(It moves, it moves, it moves.)
We'll see what all gets done.
I'm an addict for dramatics.
I confuse the two for love.
You can tell me that you don't beg.
Liar. (Liar.)
If we're keeping score,
We're all choir boys at best;
Intrusive and arrogant.
Liar. (Liar.)
If we're keeping score,
We're all choir boys at best;
Intrusive and arrogant.
Got 26 days to work with.
(Got 26 days.)
Then back on that island,
That you swear by.
Still barely can afford.
It's still a question of,
""How long will this hold? ""
Well is it any different?
(I said this is all done.)
Now that we are home, oh,
Don't you go there, not here.
Not now.
(It moves, it moves, it moves.)
Not here, not now.
I'm an addict for dramatics.
I confuse the two for love.
You can tell me that you don't beg.
Liar. (Liar.)
If we're keeping score,
We're all choir boys at best;
Intrusive and arrogant.
Liar. (Liar.)
If we're keeping score,
We're all choir boys at best;
Intrusive and arrogant.
We're all choir boys at best.

Intrusive and arrogant.
Liar. (Liar.)
If we're keeping score,
We're all choir boys at best;
Intrusive and arrogant.
Liar. (Liar.)
Liar. (Liar.)
It takes one to know one.

And all of this was all your fault
And all of this
(I stay jealous)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life
(she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame somebody else)

Jynx me something crazy
Thinking if it's three
then I'm as smooth as the skin
rolls across the small of your back
It's too bad it's not my style
If you need me
I'm out and on the parkway,
patient and waiting for headlights,
dressed in a fashion that's fitting to the
inconsistencys of my moods
It's times like these where silence means everything
And no one is to know about this
It's times like these, where silence means everything
And no one is to know about this
It's a campaign of distraction
and revisionist history, oh
It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
(it's a shame, I don't think that they'll notice)
It's a shame I doubt they even care
(it's a shame I doubt they even care)
No one is to know about this
It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
(it's a shame, I don't think that they'll notice)
It's a shame I doubt they even care
(it's a shame I doubt they even care)
Don't let me down
But whatever I have gettin myself into
maybe has been slicing inches from my waist
It's my fist vs. the bottle
(and thank god you weren't there...)
And that's how bad could this hurt
or against I won't feel a thing
(and thank god you weren't there...)
I tell you all about it
It's just not working out
(...to watch me hit the bottle)
not working out
It's a campaign of distraction
and revisionist history, oh
It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
(it's a shame, I don't think that they'll notice)
It's a shame I doubt they even care
(it's a shame I doubt they even care)
No one is to know about this
It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
(it's a shame, I don't think that they'll notice)
It's a shame I doubt they even care
(it's a shame I doubt they even care)
Don't let me down
This is why we were taught so much better than this
This is why we were taught so much better than this

She said, Don't...don't let it go to your head.
Boys like you are a dime a dozen,
Boys like you are a dime a dozen.
She said...You're a touch over-rated.
You're a lush, and I hate it.
But these grass stains on my knees,
They won't mean a thing

(Chorus)
And all I need to know is that I'm something you'll be missin'
Well, maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that far
Maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that..

I'd never lie to you
Unless I had to, I'll do what I got to
Unless I had to, I'll do what I got to
THE TRUTH IS,
YOU COULD SLIT MY THROAT,
AND WITH MY ONE LAST GASPING BREATH,
I'D APOLOGIZE FOR BLEEDING ON YOUR SHIRT.<3
(Chorus)

Cuz I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be the last chance you'll get to drop my name
Cuz I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be the last time you'll get to drop my name

If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
Maybe I should hate you for this
Maybe I should hate you for this

So sick, so sick of being tired.
And oh so tired of being sick.
We're both such magnifacent liars.
So crush me baby, I'm all ears.
So obviously desperate, so desperatly obvious.
I'll give in one more time and feed you stupid lines all about ""its basic...""
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
So sick, so sick of being tired.
And oh so tired of being sick.
Willing and ready to prove the worst of everything you said about.
So obviously desperate, so desperatly obvious.
So good at setting bad examples.
Listen, trick, I've had all I can handle.
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
Think of all the fun you had.
The finest line divides a night well spent from a waste of time.
Think of all the days you spent alone with just your T.V. set and......""I can barely smile""
Think of all the fun you had.
The finest line divides a night well spent from a waste of time.

Despondent, distracted,
You're vicious and romantic;
These are a few of my favorite things.
All of those flavors and,
This is what you choose:
Past the blues, past the blues,
And on to something new.

Something real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing less will be accepted.
So if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.

Yeah, we're stubborn and melodramatic,
A real class act.
You see, I know a few of your favorite things.
Five in the morning, it all comes out pouring,
Love, out the same way in.

Something real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing less will be accepted.
Now if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.

Something real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing else will be accepted.
I said "Real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing less will be accepted. "
Now if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.

Mm, mm, mm, mm.
Mm, mm, mmmm.

Well there's been an accident. (Calm down.)
There's been an accident, breathe.
In then out calm down. (In then out calm down.)
Breath in then out calm down. (In then out calm...)

We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...

(Breath in then out calm down.)

But would you do it again, again?
And count backwards from ten.
(Look I don't make those mistakes no more.)
Sometimes I swear I can see straight through you.

Just concentrate, control.
But would you do it again?

We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...

We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back.
Can't go back.

Murder, oh, murder where have you been?
Murder, oh, murder where have you been?
Murder, oh, murder where have you been?
Murder, oh, murder where have you been?
Murder, oh, murder where have you been?
Murder, oh, murder where have you been?

We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back.
Can't go back.
Can't go back, we can't...
(Feels like anything anything, anything anything.)
We can't go back.

You've got this new head filled up with smoke.
I got my veins all tangled close,
To the jukebox bars you frequent.
The safest place to hide.
A long night spent with your most obvious weakness.
You start shaking at the thought.
You are everything I want.
'Cause you are everything I'm not.
And we lay, we lay together just not,
Too close, too close. (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not,
Too close, too close.
I just wanna break you down so badly.
Well I trip over everything you say.
I just wanna break you down so badly.
In the worst way.
My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit.
It talks, it says, ""You, oh, you are so cool.""
Scissor shaped across the bed, you are red, violent red.
You hollow out my hungry eyes.
You hollow out my hungry eyes.
And we lay, we lay together just not,
Too close, too close. (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not,
Too close, too close.
I just wanna break you down so badly.
Well I trip over everything you say.
Well I just wanna break you down so badly.
In the worst way.
I just wanna break you down so badly.
Well I trip over everything you say.
I just wanna break you down so badly.
In the worst way. (Worst way.)
I'm gonna make damn sure that you can't ever leave.
No, you won't ever get too far from me.
You won't ever get too far from me.
I'll make damn sure that you can't ever leave.
No, you won't ever get too far from me.
You won't ever get too far from me.
You won't ever get too far from me.
You won't ever get too far...
I just wanna break you down so badly.
Well I trip over everything you say.
Well I just wanna break you down so badly.
In the worst way. (Worst way.)
I'm gonna make damn sure.
I just wanna break you down so badly.
I just wanna break you down so badly. (D**n sure.)
In the worst way. (Worst way.)

That look was priceless, don't let me get carried away.
I've seen it before, and it still suits you the same.
You catch on quick! (You catch on quick!)
As the cynics stop before they give the same reviews.
(You catch on quick!) You catch on quick!

I heard that this is where, where the party is.
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reject assuming hands. (Arms reject assuming hands.)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reject assuming hands. (Arms reject assuming hands.)

The abortion that you had left you clinically dead,
And made it all that much easier to lie.
But it's nothing that I'm proud of. (No, it's nothing that I'm proud of.)
We're making an example out of you. (This is phase one.)
This is a preview. (This is phase one.)

I heard that this is where, where the party is.
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reject assuming hands. (Arms reject assuming hands.)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reject assuming hands. (Arms reject assuming hands.)

Don't act like you're the first one,
I treat it like disease.
Sure, it's rough around the edges,
It's the only thing you see.

Don't act like you can't see me, darling.
Coming...
Don't act like you can't see me, darling.
Coming in...
Don't act like you can't see me, darling.
Coming in...
Dont act like you can't see me, darling.

You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reject assuming hands. (Arms reject assuming hands.)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reject assuming hands. (Arms reject assuming hands.)

You had your chance!
(Spin 'sugar' spin)
You had your chance!
You had your chance!

Two sides twist and then collide;
You're calling off the guards. ( Am I coming? )
I'm coming through. ( Am I coming? )
Adulteress conditioned to a spin cycled submission.
You know, sometimes it just feels better to give in.
( Sometimes, it just feels better to give in. )
And it's all too familiar,
And it happens all the time.
All the cards begin to stack up,
Twisting heartache into fine,
Little pieces that avoid an awful crime,
But it's you I can't deny.
(You I can't deny. )
Dull heat rises from the sheets.
I'm both a patient boy,
Well, and a jealous man. ( Am I coming? )
But double standardized suspicion,
Is remedied, oh, my blue heaven,
Sometimes, it just feels better to give in.
( Sometimes, it just feels better to give in. )
And it's all too familiar,
And it happens all the time.
All the cards begin to stack up,
Twisting heartache into fine,
Little pieces that avoid an awful crime,
But it's you I can't deny.
( You I can't deny. )
We swing and we sway,
As this tiny voice in,
My head starts to sing,
""You're safe, child, you are safe.""
( ""You're safe, child, you are safe."" )
""You're safe, child, you are safe.""
We swing and we sway,
As this tiny voice in,
My head starts to sing,
""You're sick, child, you are safe. ""
""You're sick, child, you are ..""
Safe. ( Safe.) Safe. ( Safe. )
You are safe.
We swing and we sway,
As this tiny voice in,
My head starts to sing,
""You're sick, child, you are safe."" ( Am I coming? )
""You're sick, child, you are safe. ""( Am I -- )
Coming through?
Is this all too familiar?
Does it happen all the time?
I'm just asking you to hear me.
Could you please, just once, just hear me?
More than anything you wanted to be right.
Still it's you, you, it's you I can't deny.
( You I can't deny. )
It's you I can't deny.

I'll take with me every single luxury when I leave you
Count on me for that and nothing more

Close our eyes and let go of the wheel

It's not the quanity that bothers me
