(no subject)
I can't imagine all the people that you know
And the places that you go
When the lights are turned down low
And I don't understand all the things you've seen
But I'm slipping in between
You and your big dreams
It's always you in my big dreams
And you tell me that it's over
But I can stand here in a patch of four-leaf clover
And you're restless
And I'm naked
You gotta get out
You can't stand to see me shaking
No
Would you let me go?
And you don't wanna be here in the future
So you see the present as just a pleasant interruption to the past
And you don't wanna looko much closer
Because you're afraid to find out
That all the hope you had sent into the sky by now
Had crashed
And it did
Because of me
And then you bring me home
Afraid to find out that you're alone
And I'm dreaming in your living room
We don't have much room
To live
And I had dreams that I would learn to play guitar
Maybe cross the country
Become a rock star
And there was hope in me that I could take you there
Dammit you're so young
But I don't think I care
And if I hurt you
Then I'm sorry
Please don't think that this was easy
It's just this guilt has got the best of me
And then you bring me home
'Cause we both know what it's like to be alone
And I'm sleeping in your living room
We dont have much room
To live
And Konstantine is coming down the stairs
Doesn't she look good
Standing in her underwear?
And I was thinking
What I was thinking
That we've been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere
MyKonstantine came walking down the stairs
And all that I could do was touch her long, blond hair
And I been thinking
What I been thinking
She's been drinking and it doesn't get us anywhere
It's because I can spell confusion with a 'K'
It's hard to like it
It's to dying in another's arms
And why I had to try it
It's to Jimmy Eat World
And those nights in my car
But this time I'm alone
And I don't see those stars
I'm not your star
Isn't that what you said?
What you thought this song meant?
You thought the song meant...
If this is what it takes
To lie in my mistakes
And live with what I did to you
And all the hell I put you through
I always catch the clock
It's 11:11
And now you wanna talk
It's not hard to dream
You'll always be my Konstantine
They'll never hurt you like I do
No, they'll never hurt you like I do
No
No
No, no, no, no, no, no
This is to a girl
Who got into my head
With all the pretty things she said
Hey, baby, you know that you keep me up in bed?
This is to a girl who got into my head
With all these fucked up things I did
Hey baby, maybe you could keep me up in bed
My Konstantine
Spin around me like a dream
We played out on this movie screen
And I said
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
God I miss you
And then you bring me home
And we go to sleep
But this time not alone
No, never
And you kiss me in your living room
And I knew
That I've been missing in my living room
And it's all you
This is what I've missed, what I've missed
We don't have much room
I said 'Does anybody really need that room?'
Cause we all need a little bit of room
To live
My Konstantine
And the places that you go
When the lights are turned down low
And I don't understand all the things you've seen
But I'm slipping in between
You and your big dreams
It's always you in my big dreams
