Album: Straylight Run
And all the awkward way
that you recoil when I get close
and all the awful grin
that greets me when Im now alone
so down on hands and knees
choking gasping dripping spit
I just can't make good
on any of these promises
Then he asked me
what does that mean
what's another word for desperate
repetition makes an impression
what's another word for desperate
I won't be around here for too very long
So tip the bottle back
Bubble foam and watch it break.
We can all be sure
something awful's coming this way
so take this medicine
in measured doses, take your time
'cause they'll tear into you.
They will, they will.
They will, they will.
Then he asked me
what does that mean
what's another word for desperate
repetition makes an impression
So what's another word for desperate
I won't be around here for too very long
I won't be around here for too very long
And they'll tear into you
They will, they will
They will, they will.
Take it apart, letting it all go
Holding it all back, it's all just so...
Why did I care how did it go,
wait for awhile and not guess that.
I won't be around here for too very long.
I won't be around here for too very long.
