lyrics

I’ll take the blame for the tragedy that sits in front of me
my laundered realities have stone cold apathy
excuse my iniquities I’ll push them down
and make a dying excuse for what’s already gone below

Maybe I should get a job working rocks and paper
sipping on faith on diamond ice
and work a sweat to my brow just to say I did
don’t take my word all insanity has graced my tongue
all of my words make excuses for already sheltered verve

I walk around like I'm a little kid
I'm so naive look at things I did
I'm pretty sure I've made a mess this time
I don't know him I'm gonna fly this line

Annoyed why am I coy got me running in directions that I never really wanted to explore

Concerned where is my girl shyly looking past her gaze because I don't want her to think that I'm a fool at engagement and I can't respond to simple words that won't augment or hurt if I let them work

I walk around like I'm a little kid
I'm so naive look at things I did
I'm pretty sure I've made a mess this time
I don't know him I'm gonna fly this line

I’m so naive
Realities

I walk around like I'm a little kid
I'm so naive look at things I did
I'm pretty sure I've made a mess this time
I don't know him I'm gonna fly this line
