I've Got Ten Friends And A Crowbar That Says You Ain't Gonna Do Jack

(album: They're Only Chasing Safety - 2004)

Carried out the sound
Past our eyes horizon
I'm standing still, I'm standing still
Waiting for this all to change
Now my hands are up
I'm walking out, I'm walking out
What did you expect of me?

Did you think that this was all an excuse for hospitality
I know you think it's all because of me
At first glance I'll breathe in
Leaving myself no room to move at all
My mind is so flooded and I'm drunk with regret
Swimming in a sea of hope tonight
I'll find your hand and trace it with mine
As we push away with everything we have
With everything we have left, yeah

Oh, you're acting on my words
You're acting on my words
We can start the fire that will light up the night
No, I wouldn't be too sure, sure of you at all

We'll watch it burn together on respective sides, yeah
We look so good
We look so good as we fall
As we fall
As we fall

I'll go ahead and re-elect perfection
It's never looked as good as it does on you right now
I'll go ahead and make an incision
Doubt you'll feel anything at all
A fake, a fraud, forked tongue and I am nervous
At least I can say I made it out this time
I am just fine where you have left me
As for you, be sure to cover up, to cover up your mouth

Oh, you're acting on my words
You're acting on my words
We can start the fire that will light up the night
No, I wouldn't be too sure, sure of you at all
Oh, you're acting on my words
You're acting on my words
No, I wouldn't be too sure, sure of you at all

I don't know how to say this
My thoughts have just run out
Have just run out
Have just run out, yeah
