Mayday Parade - If You Wanted A Song Written About You, All You Had To Do Was Ask lyrics

rate me

I'm throwing away pictures<br />

that i never should have taken in the first place<br />

and it's cold in my apartment<br />

as i'm changing all the colors<br />

from the brightest reds to grays<br />

<br />

well it's 3 o'clock on monday morning<br />

i'm just hoping you're not seeing his face<br />

i've been getting calls in these hotel rooms<br />

long enough to know that it was him<br />

that took my place<br />

<br />

and i hope this makes you happy now<br />

that the flame we had is burning out<br />

and i hope you like your pictures facing down<br />

as even broken hearts may have their doubts<br />

<br />

and i'm burning all the letters<br />

hoping that i might forget her and her bad taste<br />

that she left when she was leaving me<br />

a life of barely breathing as she walked<br />

out of this place<br />

<br />

and you dropped the note and we changed key<br />

you changed yourself and i changed me<br />

i really didn't see us singing through this<br />

then you screamed the bridge<br />

and i cried the verse<br />

and our chorus came out unrehearsed<br />

and you smiled the whole way through it<br />

i guess maybe that's what's worse<br />

<br />

and i hope this makes you happy now<br />

that the flame we had is burning out<br />

and i hope you like your pictures facing down<br />

as even broken hearts may have their doubts<br />

<br />

and i'm taking all your memories off the shelf<br />

and i don't need you or anybody else<br />

so take a look at me<br />

see what you want to see<br />

when you get home<br />

<br />

take me home<br />

i'd rather die than be with you<br />

take me home<br />

you have a problem with the truth<br />

take me home<br />

because this happens every time<br />

i knew it would...<br />

i knew it would...<br />

<br />

take me home<br />

i'd rather die than be with you<br />

take me home<br />

you have a problem with the truth<br />

take me home<br />

because this happens every time<br />

and i knew it would...<br />

i knew it would...<br />

<br />

and i hope this makes you happy now<br />

that the flame we had is burning out<br />

and i hope you like your pictures facing down<br />

as even broken hearts may have their doubts<br />

<br />

and i'm taking all your memories off the shelf<br />

and i don't need you or anybody else<br />

so take a look at me<br />

see what you want to see<br />

when you get home
