lyrics

TravisT

I'm nothing special, might as well let you know now/
so don't get your hopes up, cause I will let you down/
I'm not sure how you see me, but I'm not as I appear/
I just try and tell you what I think you want to hear/
who fuck the fuck am I? I'm just another guy/
who's got nothing to lose but your trust and my pride/
plus my mind, and possibly my time/
they say time is money, every breath is a dime/
so don't hold yours and I won't hold mine/
and then we won't be mad when the sun don't shine/
I have nothing to offer the world, I'm sorry goodbye/
turn around, walk away, don't worry you'll be fine/
I know it can be tough to go alone but still I try/
it doesn't matter, I'm just killing time until I die/
and after that I'll be easily replaced/
after all I've just been temporarily filling in the blanks/
see I am who I am so either take me or leave me/
or leave me alone, you're not making it easy/
I truly wish it was for the both of us, believe me/
but the suns got it's rain and the days got it's evening/
you might know the half, but sure but you don't know the whole of it/
I have an amazing way of pissing people off without knowing it/
I know this though, I'm no better than the next man/
I'm hard to read like a letter written with my left hand/
a closed book to most, and for those that try and open it/
eventually give up when they realize it's hopeless/
I wallow in my solitude, it's all that I got/
so please don't take it personal, believe it's not/
I'm far from flawless, and full of contradiction/
no apologies, I've given you an honest self description/
don't get your hopes up, cause I will let you down/
I'm nothing special, might as well let you know now/
The longest hello and the shortest goodbye/
and I can't for the life of me understand why/
one hell of a road and one hell of a ride/
but if it's all the same I think next time I'll fly/
I pick up the pieces and I pick up the glue/
and I put them together, but it still isn't you/
so I find someone new, and I try to do/
whatever it was that you wanted me to/
then I stumble for answers, and trip over words/
misunderstood and just wish I was heard/
screams sound like whispers, the picture is blurred/
I guess I'm just getting the mess I deserve/
Love is universal, but the reversal is love'll curse you /
love'll burn you, love'll harm you, love'll hurt you/
REST/
love'll turn to pain, but pain is also universal/
it was heaven when it started, now hell is where the heart is/
merely just memory gone, dearly departed/
the grass is always greener... except for when it's browner/
here I go again, I always had to be a downer/
the air that you breathe, I guess I'll take when you leave/
cause you've effected me more than you would ever believe/
naive's a great color on you, it matches your eyes/
and does such a fantastic job of... masking the lies/
it flips my mind like if 6 was 9/
so much so that it seems to make me sick sometimes/
Mr calm, Mr rational, Mr sane/
Mr must have missed the memo where it all got explained/
I was drinking when I wrote this, so forgive me if it goes astray/
never been a prince so tell me what am I supposed to say?/
what am I supposed to think? how am I supposed to feel?
been here many times but it's never been this close to real/
for awhile we were really on a roll/
I thought we might be soulmates, but you ain't got a soul/
in the beginning it was innocent, now look at what it's come to/
fuck you I love you, fuck you I love you/
fuck you I love you, fuck you I love you/
fuck you I love you, fuck you I love you/
fuck you I love you, fuck you I love you/
