I'm having a hard time changing my desktop background from that picture of us
Getting rid of those mix CDs that you burned for me with Yellowcard and Elvis
Deleting those sweet texts you sent to me, why don't you feel that way anymore?
And I really don't wanna bring back your thing, cause I know I'll just break down at your door
That's what I get for chasing high school girls and thinking they're grown up
That's what I get for taking chances
Can someone tell these girls that they're the reason guys are ass holes
The girl's not always the bad guy, but sometimes that's just so hard to believe
And I broke down outside your hotel room, blasting The Upsides in my car
Jasmine's not sober enough to answer her phone and getting hold of Bjorn's so hard
I know it sounds selfish but I wish that my friends didn't move away for college
Melissa and Bryant already left, and Nolan's leaving pretty soon
That's what I get for chasing high school girls and thinking they're grown up
That's what I get for taking chances
Can someone tell these girls that they're the reason guys are ass holes
The girl's not always the bad guy, but sometimes that's just so hard to believe
That's what I get for chasing high school girls and thinking they're grown up
That's what I get for taking chances
Can someone tell these girls that they're the reason guys are ass holes
The girl's not always the bad guy, but sometimes that's just so hard to believe

I gave up today, packed all my shit away
I called my mom and said I'm coming home
And I called my girlfriend and said this has to end
I'm sorry but don't talk to me again
And she said
I woke up today, felt perfectly ok
Not realizing the damage I had done
So, I gave her my keys, I won't be needing these
I'm sorry but get out of my life, please
And she said
Bitties they come and go but, boy you'll never know when
You might just get one to stick around
Time is on our side but you just have to swallow your pride
And realize the girl's not always
The bad guy
I picked up this chick, acted like such a dick
And she ate it out of the palm of my hand
And my ex sat and stared, she knew that I was scared
She walked up to me, I could tell that she still cared
And she said
Bitties they come and go but, boy you'll never know when
You might just get one to stick around
Time is on our side but you just have to swallow your pride
And realize the girl's not always
The bad guy
She said
Bitties they come and go but, boy you'll never know when
You might just get one to stick around
Time is on our side but you just have to swallow your pride
And realize the girl's not always
The bad guy
Bitties they come and go but, boy you'll never know when
You might just get one to stick around
Time is on our side but you just have to swallow your pride
And realize the girl's not always
The bad guy
Whoaaaaa

Cross My Eyes

It's been one shitty year since the yesterdays
Because I've seen the world today
Starting new without a finish line
And now we end this shit tonight
I'll cross my eyes and dot my t's, I'll let you beat me to my knees
You never said you wanted this, But you wanted this
I'll run to you and walk away, there's not much that you can say
You took my pain as your own, so thank you
I've been such a weak boy lately
I've been trying to save the world
But really the only power that I've got
Is to fall flat down on my ass
I'll cross my eyes and dot my t's, I'll let you beat me to my knees
You never said you wanted this, But you wanted this
I'll run to you and walk away, there's not much that you can say
You took my pain as your own, so thank you
I'll cross my eyes and dot my t's, I'll let you beat me to my knees
You never said you wanted this, But you wanted this
I'll run to you and walk away, there's not much that you can say
You took my pain as your own, so thank you

A young girl screams at her mother's lifeless body
"YOU LIED! YOU LIED! You said you'd never leave!"
The uniformed men, they take my children away
And all I can do is run away in shame
This town's in flames, you can hear people shout
And I hide and pray, that's what a coward's about
It's gonna hit this city to weed us out
The screams, the cries, they stung my ears
Until the sun goes down, and calms my fears

It's 5 p.m. time to get out of bed, dig for some clean clothes and now my day begins
Bum some cash from my mom and give a call to my friends, where we'll be
Driving around, making a scene, coffee, smoothies, movies
Mini golf, go-carts, donuts in the parking lot
Skinny dipping, laser tag, tonight we're tearing shit apart
3, 2, 1, let's go!
Bottle rockets, fight a bear, school's on fire so's my hair
Pick up bitches, rob a bank, state patrol is on our flank
8 a.m. go to bed, tomorrow we'll do it all again
It's 6 p.m. time to wake up again, I'm dragging ass and now my head's in a spin
Grab the keys from my mom, and I head to my friend's, now we'll be
Playing poker, gettin' some, gaming all night, having fun
Scale a building, fast food, releasing monkeys from the zoo
Smashing pumpkins, chopping trees, build a robot, set him free
1, 2, 3, let's go!
Four wheeling, wasting gas, ???, shattered glass
Hopping fences, running fast, pissed off coppers on our ass
Crashing parties, throw some back, kill some hookers, get some cash

She's been sleeping for a while now
Found it hard to leave
Found a home with a different song
One that I can call my own
And I know the way you've been hurt and broken
And i will do everything to make you see that I won't leave as long as I breathe
We'll leave our marks and share our scars, we'll walk the edge of earth and Mars
I know it's hard to trust someone the way you trust me with your heart
But I'll prove you wrong with this little song
From me to you, just say yes, I want to be with you my love
So, be mine
Don't wait anymore, keep your eyes on me
I've got you to adore
Don't wait anymore, this is a panic to a love we can't afford, hopeless romantic and I
I hope you found me in a late night dream, meant for me
And I know the way you've been hurt and broken
And i will do everything to make you see that I won't leave as long as I breathe
We'll leave our marks and share our scars, we'll walk the edge of earth and Mars
I know it's hard to trust someone the way you trust me with your heart
But I'll prove you wrong with this little song
From me to you, just say yes, I want to be with you my love
So, be mine

I had a dream last night that nobody was trying
They turned their noses up to all the young men dying
With new technology to keep us occupied
To keep us distracted from big brother's lies
Why are you running away
You liar, you
Come save our souls
Stop avoiding the question
With your roundabout talk
We're waiting for your confession
To bleed or not to bleed, that seems to be the question
To speak your mind or live, the choice is our discretion
Blamed by society, the ones who think are different
Being outcast and banned that's what we get for this
Why are you running away
You liar, you
Come save our souls
Stop avoiding the question
With your roundabout talk
We're waiting for your confession
With your tail between your legs and your nose to the ground
What are you waiting for, you coward? Get the fuck out of this town

I've been lost for 19 long years
While I can't even figure out where I'm sleeping tonight
The last thing that I ever wanted was for us
To be falling together and for each other
I never said I was the nice guy, but we lost the line between coward and crook
And I've spent the last few months asking why
Why do you try? I'll just make your cry
I'll march along screaming and writhing inside
Well, my life has been on pause and stuck on standby
Your off with your new life instead of fixing ours
And it seems like I barely, know ya
And I hate it as much as I hate Arizona
And I never said I was the nice guy, but we lost the line between coward and crook
And I've spent the last few months asking why
Why do you try? I'll just make your cry
I'll march along screaming and writhing inside

I find myself spending time walking down this lonely road
Where the cheaters and the liars go to feel like they're alone
When this shady man walks up to me and he asks to use my phone
He runs off with it but I chase him down and I threaten to beat in his fucking skull
What does a crook say when he's been found out?
There's no spilt milk, man. What's there to cry about?
What does a crook say when he's been found out?
There's no spilt milk, man. What's there to cry about?

GO!
I believed in you, I trusted you, told you that I couldn't live without you
But still you see me standing here
You faked our life, you faked our love, made everything I know and love this game
But still you see me standing here
You said, (you said), you said to trust you like you trusted me
I'll leave you, (I'll leave you), I'll leave you like you left me here
I'd like to say I'm not sad anymore, but I'd hate to tell that lie to all my friends
It's hard but still I'm standing here
Is this abandonment or just punishment? It feels like I'm running on empty
It's hard but still I'm standing here
You said, (you said) you said to trust you like you trusted me
I'll leave you, (I'll leave you), I'll leave you like you left me here
You said, you said to trust you like you trusted me
I'll leave you, (leave you), I'll leave you like you left me here
