i sense a hit in what you did   you don't do to me   so i'll let you go   to your new beau   yeah what's his story   there's nothing left   on this sinking ship   but i see something   so i'll let you go   run to him now   i'll get to working      (prechorus)   i paved the avenue   between losing and wanting you   i burned my life out on a whim   that i still can't see through   picked lights out from the sky   now looking back it's all i could do   i paved the avenue   between losing and wanting      (chorus)   just because i'm wrong   it doesn't matter much to me   there's nothing left to say i'm sorry   i want it all you know i drag you out   and shoot you down to worry         you made the jump   covered us up   made it look easy   that doesn't say   much for him today   with whom you're lying   this sinking ship   is what you've missed   i'll make you want it   i'll be reborn   a return to form   let's get this started      (prechorus)   i walk the avenue   between losing and wanting you   there's something to be said   for tearing down    all that you knew   we're terrified to hear   there's nothing where   we spent our youth   i walk the avenue   between losing and wanting      (chorus)      (bridge)   hey miss motivation   you keep me floating   in your empty ocean   and you're so well adjusted   you're too adjusted   for the likes of me   and i walked off just wishing    yeah i'm begging   hoping you'll miss something   but all you do is miss him   long as he fills in   oh the irony      (chorus)
