Big Distraction Lyrics
You're my concentration
Everything else is a bore
I've got myself snagged on you
No self-control
Now all that I want do
Sleep in the shadow of you
For the rest of my life
Now we can chisel
Chisel off built up walls
Of pain deposited
From past lovers
'Cause the memories they can sleep
And we can live comfortably
For the rest of our lives
Wrong or right
Shipwrecked into you
Situation is foolish
Put up a fight
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche
Indentured servant
A slave to a slave
Thank god for my hopeful heart
And for mutual feelings
Well look how it's balanced now
Maybe we'll just settle down
For the rest of our lives
Wrong or right
Shipwrecked into you
Situation is foolish
Put up a fight
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche
Look how it's balanced now
Maybe we'll just settle down
For the rest of our lives
Wrong or right
Shipwrecked into you
Situation is foolish
Put up a fight fight
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche
Everything else is a bore
I've got myself snagged on you
No self-control
Sleep in the shadow of you
For the rest of my life
Chisel off built up walls
Of pain deposited
From past lovers
And we can live comfortably
For the rest of our lives
Shipwrecked into you
Situation is foolish
Put up a fight
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche
A slave to a slave
Thank god for my hopeful heart
And for mutual feelings
Maybe we'll just settle down
For the rest of our lives
Shipwrecked into you
Situation is foolish
Put up a fight
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche
Maybe we'll just settle down
For the rest of our lives
Shipwrecked into you
Situation is foolish
Put up a fight fight
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche
You're my big distraction
Obvious companion
I'm falling fast
Like an avalanche

yet another b side off return of saturn. i think on some peoples cds this was actually an extra track, but i didn't get that on mine because i got my cd at walmart. bastards. but i still got the pretty piano version of 'too late' which is also lovely. but yeah this song's a good one
haha damn i missed this as an extra track too!! damn.. but it wasnt wal-mart. itd be funny if it was.... it was A&E cd store or something i dont know...... but i sure did get the 'too late' piano version!
An awesome crush song!
I think some of the words may be wrong. I THINK. I just always thought it was a little different and it sounds like it when you listen to it but I may be wrong.
"Or biggest companion" = "Obvious companion"
"But I will fight" = "Put up a fight"
Anyway.. this song is simply about having a crush on someone. And how when you have a crush it seems like they're the only person you want to see, talk to and be with. And sometimes it can be a "big distraction" to everything else in your life.
I can relate to neverdie2084s comment completely. when u r crazy about someone they are a BIG distraction.
The piano version of Too Late at the end of the track is amazing.
I think this song is finding comfort with a new companion and not worrying over past losses. How new things to think about burt the past in an avalanche
