eighteen.

and i always thought you'd
be the one to tell me i belong
be the one you fall in love
with.

and i always thought you'd
tell me i was home
and that i was the one
for you.

seventeen.

[old]

it's 2:17
and i'm stalking the streets
and i'm waiting for trouble to find me
it's been a while
but you're still on my mind
and i think tonight's the night

cuz what have i got to lose
what have i got but the truth
where do i have to be
if you can't love me

it's 2:34
i push open your door
just to see you laying there
with your arm around her
and somehow i still care
it's been a while
but you're still on my mind
and i think tonight's the night

cuz what have i got to lose
what have i got but the truth
where do i have to be
if you can't love me
you said you can't love me
you said you can't love me
you said you can't love me
you said you said

it's 2:45
and you wish she were still alive
in a fleeting thought
just before you caught
a sight
of the look in my eyes

and in an instant you knew what you should have done
in an instant all your fears have become
a reality
now it's you and me
our turn

cuz what have we got to lose
what have we got but the truth
where do we have to be
when you can't love me
you said...

now it's 2:53
and i'm stalking the streets
i hear the siren scream
and i'm waiting for trouble to find me
i've got blood on my hands

sixteen.

such a mess


you tell me you're leaving
town for a while
i know you'll be back
so i nod and smile

you tell me you love me
with all of your heart
but how come we're always
so far apart

we're a mess
where to begin
i'm addicted to you
it must be a sin
that you keep pushing me back
then drawing me in
it's such a mess
where to begin
where to begin

you tell me you miss me
where are you today?
skipping through cities
instead of with me

you tell me you love me
with all of your heart
but i can't handle
when we're apart

we're a mess
where to begin
i'm addicted to you
it must be a sin
that you keep pushing me back
and drawing me in
it's such a mess
where to begin
where to begin

you tell me you're sorry
every second day
for something that's hurt me
but it's always the same

you tell me you love me
with all of your heart
but i can't even trust you
when we're apart

we're a mess
where to begin
i'm addicted to you
it should be a sin
that you keep pushing me back
then drawing me in
it's such a mess
where to begin
where to begin
where to begin
where to begin

you tell me you need me
and plead for me to stay
but i'm not the one who's
leaving today

you tell me you love me
with all of your heart
but maybe we're meant to
stay apart

we're a mess
where to begin
i'm addicted to you
it must be a sin
that you keep pushing me back
and drawing me in
it's such a mess
where to begin
where to begin
 
you tell me you miss me
where are you today?
skipping through cities
instead of with me...
