Album: Middle Brother
Sometimes I wish I were more mysterious
Hair in my face and short conversation
I gotta friend who speaks but doesn't talk
And I can play the part alright
But I didn't make it up.
I'm ready to lose my mind when it suits me
And if you found a fool-proof way
Just slide it under the table
Just sneak it into my pocket
Cause I want to sing with blood and guts
And I want them to sing with me too
I want to sing with blood and guts
Instead I'm singing to you
Sometimes I wish that I cared you were leaving
I guess if I did, then you probably wouldn't
You said you gotta problem with me acting tough
I don't know where you get this stuff
I heard you're frequenting with older guys from private schools
The ones that I openly thought would be bad for you
If you're breaking my heart
You won't get no help from me
But I kinda wish it would work
I think a broken heart is what I need
If I'm gonna sing with blood and guts
Then try to help me on my way
I wanna sing with blood and guts
Instead I push them away
You were so pretty with your hands on my throat
Or how you start crying when I ask for my coat
I don't miss the parts I've forgot
I said nothing, and nothing it's not
I just wanna get my fist through some glass
I just wanna get your arm in a cast
I just want you to know that I care
And I'm gonna sing with blood and guts
But I'm always doing it wrong
Oh, I want to sing with blood and guts
Instead I'm singing along
The older we get, the older we are
I woke up this morning driving my car
And that is not how it's supposed to be
Am I killing time or is it killing me?
And I wanna sing with blood and guts
So someone will know that I'm here
I wanna sing with blood and guts
I want to sing with blood and guts
I want them to sing with me too
Oh, I wanna sing with blood and guts
Instead I'm singing to you
Instead I'm singing to you
Instead I'm singing to you
