Christ, the tabernacle's empty
I won't get my fill today
I gotta find another system

To get my sins out of the way
Cause here comes the weekend
It's the best time to repent
You feel bad for a while
And then you do it all again
Oh I take what I can and I give it back to them

Cause no one sings along to my songs
The way you do, the way you do
Oh you're getting all the lyrics wrong
Like you always do, how cute

You looked so sad in your American Football t-shirt
Let's skip the show
I'll walk you home
Why do we do this to ourselves?
Maybe we should go and get help
But where's the fun in that?
You act as if I've got a plan
But I bide my time

Cause no one sings along to my songs
The way you do, the way you do
Oh you're getting all the lyrics wrong
Like you always do, how cute

They'll build a home for us out of bathroom stalls
Dressing rooms in shopping malls
Let's pretend for once
Is it wrong to want someone so much it hurts?
The worst is when you say you've had enough
But I can't, oh my love
I'm willing to bet, there's hope for us yet

Cause no one sings along to my songs
The way you do, the way you do
Oh you're getting all the lyrics wrong
Like you always do, how cute

They'll build a home for us out of bathroom stalls
Dressing rooms in shopping malls
I, for one, would love
I, for one, would love
Oh I, for one, would love to love you soon
I'd love to love you
Could I hear you say it too?
