So here I am once again, feel no good I must be out of excuses, I knew I would Feels like it came out of nowhere this time Wish I had someone else to blame I tell myself I'm only human I know I, I said never again Temptation feels like it never ends I'm sliding, powerless as I descend Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again Thought I would never go back but just this once A little present for holding out so long I could not bear the thought of it two days ago Don't think I would forgive myself I tell myself I'm only human I know I, I said never again Temptation feels like it never ends I'm sliding, only noticing now and then Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again I know what's comin', ain't so shockin' Always fuckin' up to something Ego strummin', should be stoppin' Here goes nothing I know what's coming, ain't so shockin' Always fuckin' up to something Story swappin', downhill sloping Barely coping I know it's always déjà vu I know what's coming, ain't so shockin', always fuckin' up to something Ego strummin', should be stoppin', here goes nothing I know it don't seem hard to do I know what's coming, ain't so shockin', always fuckin' up to something Story swappin', downhill sloping, barely coping I know it's always déjà vu I know what's coming, ain't so shockin', always fuckin' up to something Ego strummin', should be stoppin', here goes nothing I know it don't seem hard to do I know what's coming, ain't so shockin', always fuckin' up to something Story swappin', downhill sloping, barely coping Back into my old ways again I know I, I said never again Temptation feels like it never ends I'm sliding, powerless as I descend Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again Back into my old ways again
I apologise for the no reply Wish I could describe what goes on inside Get these butterflies Man, they make me tired I was so uptight and preoccupied That I did not ask you about your life And the things you like How you spend your nights And your 9 to 5 Are you that surprised? Oh, no Oh, no Was I impolite? Was that joke alright? I just want to seem like a normal guy You know how it's like Try to see my side You're a cinephile, I watch Family Guy On a Friday night, off a rogue website When I should be out with some friends of mine Runnin' reckless wild in the streets at night Singin' "Life, oh life," with our arms out wide Oh, no Oh, no 'Cause you know One in a million ain't my luck I know my stories don't line up If you're still making your mind up There is still hope, you know I'll try To do it right Every time You and I Well, you know Well, you know
The morning light is turning blue, the feeling is bizarre The night is almost over, I still don't know where you are The shadows, yeah, they keep me pretty like a movie star Daylight makes me feel like Dracula In the end I hope it's you and me In the darkness I would never leave You won't ever see me in the light of day It's far too late The time has come I'm on the verge of caving in, I run back to the dark Now I'm Mr. Charisma, fucking Pablo Escobar My friends are saying "Shut up, Kevin, just get in the car" I just wanna be right where you are Oh, my love In the end I hope it's you and me In the darkness I would never leave We both saw this moment coming from afar Now here we are Run from the sunlight, Dracula Run from the sunlight, Dracula Run from the sunlight, Dracula Isn't the view spectacular? But please Do you think about what it might mean? 'Cause I dream about you in my sleep Would you ever love someone like me? Like me? In the end I hope it's you and me In the darkness I would never leave We both saw this moment coming from afar Now here we are So run from the sunlight, Dracula Run from the sunlight, Dracula Run from the sunlight, Dracula Isn't the view spectacular? Run from the sunlight, Dracula Run from the sunlight, Dracula Isn't the view spectacular? Run from the sunlight, Dracula Run from the sunlight, Dracula Isn't the view spectacular?
I had to tell ya, it's now or never So much for closure, I lost composure I get the message, I learned my lesson Tried to correct it, I think I wrecked it Man, it's a crisis, I'm never like this That's how my life is, you couldn't write this I'm a loser, babe Do you wanna tear my heart out? I'm a tragedy Tryin' to figure this whole mess out I'm out of favor, my worst behavior I get the message, I learned my lesson Desperate times call for desperate measures I fell into ya, I fell into ya Tried to correct it, well shit, I wrecked it I'm a loser, babe Do you wanna tear my heart out? I'm a tragedy Tryin' to figure my whole life out I leave alone and Dark streets I roam in Night air, I breathe in The stars I believe in I don't know why I didn't fight it I probably tried and magnified it I cannot lie, I feel defeated Take it as a sign, you're badly needed You're badly needed Badly wanted Fuck
It won't stay the same In a normal life, I want to It won't stay the same In a normal life, I want to You're so far away, endlessly I tried to reach you 'Cause if I make it through, my love, in the morning light, I'm with you It won't stay the same, in a normal life, I want to If it cannot be with you, then I'm glad I told you But if there was chance in hell I would I would I would I would When I saw your face, I was hypnotized, baby I could see my future, never yearned for love so deeply Will it be okay? Will you feel the life we live on? If I don't get to you, my love, then I choose oblivion (Then I choose oblivion) I would I would I would (If I never get to you) I would (I'm going to oblivion) I'm going to oblivion If I never get to you That's what I wanna do (Wanna do) That's what I wanna do That's what I wanna do It won't stay the same In a normal life, I want to It won't stay the same In a normal life, I want to I would I would I would (If I never get to you) I would (I'm going to oblivion) I would (Oblivion) I would (Oblivion) I would (If I never get to you) I would (I'm going to oblivion) I would (Oblivion) I would (If I never get to you) I would (I'm going to oblivion)
Walking down the street I'm floating Always go the long way Give the day some meaning From my window It looks perfect from a distance Oh, I want to be there Need to get away as soon as I am Oh, I can't stand Oh, I can't stand Day after day Waking just in time to catch the last hours of sunlight People going home, they walk by Must be nice Must be nice Makes me realise It's not my world It's not my world It's not my world It's not my world
This room is a shambles But I think it's fine To you it's untidy, maybe To me it's divine Now I'm in your bedroom It's a small piece of heaven I find myself in Forever and ever Or never again Don't know if I'll be here, baby I guess that depends 'Cause I'm in your bedroom It's a small piece of heaven All around me Now there is a whole world Going on out there Whatever I'm missing out on In here I don't care 'Cause I'm in your bedroom Now I'm your possession No, I don't believe my eyes (I'm in your bedroom) No, I don't believe my eyes (A small piece of heaven) No, I don't believe my eyes (I'm in your bedroom) Don't believe my eyes (A small piece of heaven) No, I don't believe my eyes Forever and ever (I'm in your bedroom) No, I don't believe my eyes (A small piece of heaven) It won't make a difference You can lie all your life It won't make a difference You can try all your life It won't make a difference You can lie all your life It won't make a difference You can try all your life It won't make a difference You can lie all your life It won't make a difference
Talk is cheap, but the words cut deep Promises get old, they get hard to keep Tell me, please, 'cause I'm losing sleep Do you want my love? Is it obsolete? Always was so easy hanging out But it sure doesn't feel like that now I know that you have been feeling rough Or are you falling out of love? Talk is cheap, but the words cut deep Promises get old, they get hard to keep Tell it to me straight, don't tell me lies Believe when I say I'll be alright 'Cause I'm already talking like it's done Saying things like, "At least we had some fun" And things like, "I guess we met too young" But the words cut deep Promises get old, they get hard to keep Tell me, please, 'cause I'm losing sleep Do you want my love? Is it obsolete? Jealousy lurking underneath It's a warning sign that you never see Tell me, please, tell me honestly Do you want my love? Is it obsolete? Just tell me what is up Tell me what is up I've almost had enough You're playing with my love Just tell me what is up Yes, really, what the fuck? I may not be your man But I would understand I would understand I may not be your man But I would understand Just tell it like it is to me, baby Just say I'm right, I'll do the rest, baby
Don't believe in magic All the harder that I try But you and I have something That I never can describe Take a ride Say goodbye I don't say it too often Isn't usually my style I'm here whatever happens Don't you know that I'll stand by? By your side Until the end of time Don't believe in magic All the harder that I try But you and I have something That I never can describe Take a ride Say goodbye Take a ride Say goodbye Ride Say goodbye
And it happens at every turn I'm at Somewhat steady, but please don't call me that And it happens at every turn I'm at Something beckoning me and I turn back Turn back Yes, I do turn back And it happens at every turn I'm at Am I in love again, man, just like that? She said "I'm the one you want And you can turn me on But life ain't too much fun When there's no telling where you're heading" She said "I'm the one you want And you can turn me on (Turn me on) But life ain't too much fun When there's no telling where you'll end up" No, no You're lost You're lost You're lost You're lost And it happens at every turn I'm at Somewhat steady, but please don't call me that And it happens at every turn I'm at (I'm the one you want, and you can turn me on) Something beckoning me and I turn back (But life ain't too much fun, when there's no telling where you'll end up) See you on Monday (I'm the one you want, and you can turn me on) Don't know what I'll say (But life ain't too much fun, when there's no telling where you'll end up) See you on Monday (I'm the one you want, and you can turn me on) Don't know what I'll say (But life ain't too much fun, when there's no telling where you'll end up) See you on Monday (I'm the one you want, and you can turn me on) Don't know what I'll say (But life ain't too much fun, when there's no telling where you'll end up) You're lost You're lost You're lost You're lost
I might be crazy Senses betray me Are you parading all your lovers to bait me? You only call me To drive you to safety But you never stay, must be so easy to play me I can be emotional If you need me to Tell me, what do I say to turn this around? Ninety-nine days, you'd think I'd know how I can be emotional If you need me to Tell me, what do I say to turn this around? I beg you, don't make me say it out loud No matter what I do I'm an afterthought to you I'm not complaining But I've noticed lately When we're alone, it's like I'm keeping you waiting My hopes are fading 'Cause nothing is changing I'm still so far away from calling you baby Over at Josephine's She's inbetween the sheets No time for pleasantries No time for pleasant dreams Not an angel, not by any means But got something, everyone agrees Tell me, what do I say to turn this around? Ninety-nine days, you'd think I'd know how I can get emotional Like your lovers do Tell me, what do I say to turn this around? I beg you, don't make me say it out loud No matter what I do I'm an afterthought to you I'm an afterthought to you I'm an afterthought to you Tell me, what do I say to turn this around? Ninety-nine days, you'd think it by now I can be emotional If you need me to Tell me, what do I say to turn this around? I beg you, don't make me say it out loud No matter what I do I'm an afterthought to you I said, no matter what I do I'm an afterthought to you Just an afterthought to you I'm an afterthought to you
Everybody knows how I feel about you So you can act surprised if you need to And I am still your friend if you think it's worth it It just means that I'll see you when I see you Oh, oh Oh, oh I could not deny it was overwhelming Living out our lives for just one thing And right now I would love to put my arms around you Even if I know it would mean nothing Nothing I know I can seem uncaring In moments like these I just hope it's enough to say My words don't come with ease And I'm sure that you won't believe But you'll be on my mind I waited 'till the end of summer And I ran out of time Do it on my own Goin' through it on my own It's a feelin' in my bones Can we do it tomorrow? I'ma do it on my own Goin' through it on my own It's a feelin' in my bones Can we do it tomorrow? And I know I can seem uncaring In moments like these Just 'cause I don't regret it Doesn't mean I won't think about it Love doesn't cast a shadow Fun doesn't make you shallow Just wanna make it brighter Just wanna lay beside ya Do it on my own Goin' through it on my own It's a feelin' in my bones Can we do it tomorrow? I'ma do it on my own Goin' through it on my own It's a feelin' in my bones Can we do it tomorrow? And Do it on my own (Everybody knows) Goin' through it on my own It's a feelin' in my bones (How I feel about you) Can we do it tomorrow? I'ma do it on my own (So you can act surprised) Goin' through it on my own It's a feelin' in my bones (If you need to) Can we do it tomorrow? And (Oh-oh)
