My friends become my foes
|
And my foes become my friends
|
I tend to fall in love with the girls
|
My boyfriend ends
|
|
I don't work 9 to 5
|
But I'll always work the weekends
|
And each time I'll get the world
|
In my fingers something happens
|
|
I'm working backwards, forwards
|
And left to right
|
And I'm pretty darn hard headed
|
But I can't make up my mind
|
|
I'll take a tragedy over a fairytale
|
But only when the sun is shining
|
I'll be the voice of hope in your darkest hour
|
I'm an expert in the silver lining
|
|
I'll be there when you need me
|
For all the big things
|
But I'm really pathetic at perfect timing
|
And that's the way it seems to go for me
|
|
I go to bed at 8 and wake up at 4.30
|
Most day I drink like a fish and tend to be too flirty
|
I am a perfectionist but only when things get dirty
|
I cannot stand small talk but I'm great at being wordy
|
|
And I'd rather leave you first
|
But then I'll be begging you to come back
|
And when I get real quiet
|
You know I'm about to attack
|
|
I'll take a walk in the rain or a drive in the dark
|
But only when everyone's celebrating
|
I'll dig in to your pain and tear it apart
|
But only to help the heart that's breaking
|
|
I like to figure things out and make everything right
|
But I'm secretly thrilled when everything's changing
|
And that's the way it seems to go for me
|
|
If you fall for the part that's brooding and dark
|
You will never discover the rest of my heart
|
And I want you to see that there's so much to see
|
Just before I declare you never knew me
|
|
He's with the small stuff like the world around was over
|
I calm him down and we make breakfast for each other
|
Our friends all thought we fit so perfectly together
|
He likes what he can't have and I sure like bad weather
|
|
I may have left him first
|
But I think he'd been leaving for sometime
|
I feel like begging him to come back
|
But I can't make up my mind
|
|
I'll take a boxing match over the quiet night
|
But only to make for better dreams
|
I'll back the underdog in any fight
|
But only to fight for something worth keeping
|
|
I'm in it to win it, most of the time
|
And if it goes down I'll be kicking and screaming
|
And that's the way it seems to go for me
|
Yeah, and that's the way it seems to go for me
|
Whoa, and that's the way it seems to go for me
|
