well i can wake up every day and feel the same old/manic mess
and i can make you all feel better bout the lives you left
like i tried to be a better man than everyone
yeah i tried to be a better man cos it looks good
and they say i'm just a little far from presentness
and they say i'm just a step away from ignorance
and i'm half the world away from ever making sense
and i stay until the welcome's ripped out from my chest
(chorus)
and i'm wrong
i wrote you a song but just forgot your name
and i stopped you at the door but hell i'm glad you came
and i babble tattle ramble on bout hollywood
and i swear i'm gonna kick or buy this neighborhood
(bridge)
i was the same before i met you
that's for your sake in case they blame you
but it's not on you
no it's not on you
