"Hey, How can you think that of me?
If you were in my shoes you’d see.
When you’re not on top, it’s hard to breath”
“Hey, I tried to see the bottom,
but your hands covered my eyes”
Remember when this didn’t hurt?
Lies and conversations.
One candle lit for two.
Tears shed for Patience,
making the red wine blue.
“Hey, I’ve still got those habits you hate,
and all of those promises made.
he ones that were said right to my face”
“Hey, I know I made a promise,
but crossed fingers didn’t show”
Remember when you told me
none of this would ever hurt.
Lies and conversations.
One candle lit for two.
Tears shed for Patience,
making the red wine blue.
They’re looking for something more,
but nothings around the corner.
Don’t they know they story
is never as pretty as the cover?
Lies and conversations.
One candle lit for two.
Tears shed for Patience,
making the red wine blue.

How’s New York this year?
Is your apartment perfect?
Does everyone still kill for you?
Or do they hear you cry for people that you hated,
cuz they’re the ones that made you mine.
Don’t say to me
all the things that you wanted to.
Just hold your breath and turn blue,
and keep in the “I love you’s”
Don’t say to me
that you want me to hold you again,
remember our first kiss and then,
forget the knife in my back.
Last I saw your name
in flashing lights on Broadway,
you thought that you have everything.
Cuz you’ve moved on and I
didn’t need to change much
cuz I was always used to nothing.
Don’t say to me
all the things that you wanted to.
Just hold your breath and turn blue,
and keep in the “I love you’s”
Don’t say to me
that you want me to hold you again,
remember our first kiss and then,
forget the knife in my back.
She fell back in the Atlantic
and drowned herself in
everything she knows, but she doesn't show
She fell back in the Atlantic
and drowned herself in
everything she knows, but she doesn't show
Don’t say to me
all the things that you wanted to.
Just hold your breath and turn blue,
and keep in the “I love you’s”
Don’t say to me
that you want me to hold you again,
remember our first kiss and then,
forget the knife in my back.

I’ll bide my time
make a career my life
and live for my wife
and five o’clock on Friday night.
I'll say goodbye
to summers meant for something
bleed my pockets dry
for poker nights on weekends.
The only way to make it out alive
is to close your eyes and hope you die.
I’ll be watching home movies
with a gun to my eye,
but only if things don’t change.
I’ll be six feet away.
I’ll pay my dues
and pay my debts in favors
and things I use
to fall asleep on Friday nights
I’ll wake to find
my pockets filled with nothing
so say goodbye
to poker nights on weekends
The only way to make it out alive
is to close your eyes and hope you die.
I’ll be watching home movies
with a gun to my eye,
but only if things don’t change.
I’ll be six feet away.

Keith won’t stop telling stories about Nebraska.
She said she’s sick of boys,
so she trades in her smile,
if only, for a shirt at Bridgepointe,
and that’s not right.
Keith can’t stop writing letters back to Nebraska.
He said she’s all alone,
but she’s collateral damage in loving having life to live for,
and that’s not right.
If only she could be happy again,
maybe this time she won’t pretend.
She’s sick of halos that came and went.
She’s staying up past midnight.
LIVE FROM YOUR ROOM IT’S SATURDAY NIGHT!!
Keith won’t stop choking on his words.
The same words she said he never meant,
and now she’s waiting for a heartbreak or a happy ending,
and that’s not right.
Keith can’t stop sleeping by the phone
because Nebraska knows that he’s all alone,
but all he wants is a good night and a pleasant tomorrow,
and that’s alright!
LIVE FROM YOUR ROOM IT’S SATURDAY NIGHT!
His bags are packed and he’s ready to go home to her.
A one way ticket,
and it won’t take too long to fall asleep in your arms
or just one more night.
one more night.
LIVE FROM YOUR ROOM IT’S SATURDAY NIGHT!
