Out on the town
I set all my regrets on fireCause I know I'll never take the timeTo unpack my missteps and call all of our friendsI figure they would take your side
I make the bed, just not that wellYour name comes up a lotWhen I talk to my momOh, I think she can tell
I was out on the townSo I came to your window last nightI tried not to throw stonesBut I wanted to come insideNow I'm causing a scene,thinking you need a reason to smileOh no, what have I done?There's no one to keep me warm
So maybe I should put up a fightI'll call them back and borrow a box knifeSo I can learn to live with all the stupid shitI've been doing since '99
And I know I could be more cleverAnd I know I could be more strongBut I'm waiting for the day you come back and say"Hey, maybe I should change my mind"
I drink a lotI'm not sure if that's newBut these days when I wake up from a night I forgotI just wish that it never came true
I was out on the townSo I came to your window last nightI tried not to throw stonesBut I wanted to come insideNow I'm causing a scene,thinking you need a reason to smileOh no, what have I done?There's no one to keep me warm
And I know I could be more cleverAnd I know I could be more strongAnd I know I could be more cleverAnd I know I could be more clever
I knew there would come a day when all was said and done(And I know I could be more clever)Everything I was is everything but gone(And I know I could be more strong)All my big mistakes are bouncing off your wall(And I know I could be more clever)The bottles never break, the sorrow never comes(And I know I could be more clever)So come on let me in, I will be the sun(And I know I could be more clever)I will wake you up, I am who I was(And I know I could be more strong)Just open up your heart, open up your heart, open up your heart(And I know I could be more cleverAnd I know I could be more)
I was out on the townSo I came to your window last nightI tried not to throw stonesBut I wanted to come insideNow I'm causing a scene, but you need a reason to smileOh no, what have I done?There's no one to keep me warm
