lyrics

I've been sitting with my misery cause she makes for great company i think that a wink could mean shyness and greatness and thank us for banking this opportunity,
and i've been taking all these pictures here so i could prove to you that my fear wasn't just an illusion of mistrust and misguided miscommunications,
you've been talking on your phone at night, and i don't think that it's alright, cause i know that a show of good faith and companionship isn't in your best interest,
we've been having fun doing this dance, but i wouldn't give us half a chance, cause i know who we are,

i've been riding my bike at night, to clear my head in the white moonlight, in a day i'll be here to confront my biggest fear, and adhere to these strict regulations,
short dark hair and two pale blue eyes, even sharply dressed i was none the wiser to flee from this scene cause i know we'll never be what the people call "conventionally happy"
"let's roll the dice just one more time" you whispered in my ear as i sipped on my wine, i could feel something soft as we laid up in the loft of my 1100 dollar apartment,
for reasons i made you're out of my reach, it's a hard life lesson that nobody can teach cause i know who we are
