She didn't mean to deceive you,    Believe me    But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving    The good intentions that you had    Now only came to this    And although she saw the mark,    The arrow missed       It isn't exciting reciting the stories    Of kind words turned hurting    When routine gets boring    Both getting tired of punk rock clubs    And both playing in punk rock bands    The start was something good    But some good things must end       And she said it could never survive    With such differing lives    One home one out on tour again    We may never come back    The strike of the match    The candle burning at both ends       And now she knows too much and I'm too fucked up    It's awkward trying to make my move    I'll pretend that I'm fine    Show up right on time    But I know I'll never be that cool       I never wanted to hold you back    I just wanted to hold on    But my chance is gone    I know just where I stand    A boy trapped in the body of a man and    I'll take what you're willing to give    And I'll teach myself to live    With a walk-on part of a background shot    from a movie I'm not in       She's so important    And I'm so retarded    And now I realize    I should have kissed you in LA    But I drove home all alone    As if I had a choice anyway    Where are you coming from?    What are you running from?    Is it so hard to see?    And if you're feeling scared    Remember the time we shared    You know it meant everything... everything    You know that it meant everything to me    You know that it meant everything to me
