All the mistakes I made I made because
|
I didn't know myself very well
|
And by this stage I feel like
|
I really shouldn't know myself
|
I'm forced into a sponsored silence
|
Where I'm only paid
|
If I don't say
|
What I want to say
|
|
Open up your eyes and see
|
I can't throw it all away
|
Open up your eyes and see
|
I can't give it all away
|
I couldn't even care what you say
|
Change
|
You changed everything
|
And blame it on your obvious ways
|
|
I gamble my praises
|
And threw the jukebox from my favorite phrases
|
As we cling to the nightclub walls
|
We whisper the words, we whisper them wrong
|
|
So we screamed out the wrong words
|
Into our own song
|
And with a kiss that tasted like drugs
|
Which taste like we'll never ever make it home
|
|
Open up your eyes and see
|
I can't throw it all away
|
Open up your eyes and see
|
I can't give it all away
|
I couldn't even care what you say
|
Change
|
You changed everything
|
And blame it on your obvious ways
|
|
Throw me around
|
First you've got to count me down
|
Don't you think you should count me down
|
Before you throw me around
|
|
You throw me into another move I can't remake
|
It changes everything
|
Open up your arms and say
|
Give it all away
|
I couldn't even care what you say
|
Change
|
You changed everything
|
And blame it on your obvious ways
|
