Words I Might Have Ate Lyrics by Green Day
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Now it seems I can't keep my mind off, of you
My brain drifts back to better days we've been through
Like sitting on blacktop of the school grounds
The love I bitched about I finally found

But now it's gone and I take the blame
But there's nothing I can do but take the pain
Why?

Now I dwell on what you remind me of
A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love
As for me I am blind without a cause
And now I realized what I have lost

It was something real that I could have had
Now I play the fool whose stable soul's gone bad
Why?

Tell me all the words I might have said
It's pumping pressure deep inside my head
Was it bad enough to be too late?
Just tell me the words I might have ate
The words I might have ate
The words I might have ate

But now it's gone and I take the blame
But there's nothing I can do but take the pain
Why?

Why?
Why?
Why?

Now it seems I can't keep my mind off, of you   My brain drifts back to better days we've been through   Like sitting on blacktop of the school grounds   The love I bitched about I finally found      But now it's gone and I take the blame   But there's nothing I can do but take the pain   Why?      Now I dwell on what you remind me of   A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love   As for me I am blind without a cause   And now I realized what I have lost      It was something real that I could have had   Now I play the fool whose stable soul's gone bad   Why?      Tell me all the words I might have said   It's pumping pressure deep inside my head   Was it bad enough to be too late?   Just tell me the words I might have ate   The words I might have ate   The words I might have ate      But now it's gone and I take the blame   But there's nothing I can do but take the pain   Why?      Why?   Why?   Why?   ...
