September never stays this cold
Where I come from
And you know
I'm not one for complaining,
But I love the way you'd roll
Excuses off the tip of your tongue
As I slowly fall apart (slowly, quietly, slowly)
Fall apart
This won't mean a thing come tomorrow
And that's exactly how I'll make it seem
Cause I'm still not sleeping,
Thinking I've crawled home from worse than this
So please, please (please)
I'm running out of sympathy (I'm running out of sympathy!)
And I never said I'd take this
I never said I'd take this lying down
She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with [Repeat x2]
(I never said I'd take this lying down, let's just get this over with,
And I've crawled home from worse than this)
She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with
She says
"Come on, come on"
You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything [Repeat x3]
You always come so close
I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know
You always come close but this never comes easy [Repeat x2]
You always come, you come in close
I never said I'd take this lying down [Repeat x3]
But I've crawled home from worse than this
If it's not keeping you up nights
Then what's the point [Repeat x4]
I'm in your room
Now is this turning you on
Am I turning you on?
I'm in your room
Are you turned on?
I'm on the corner of your bed,
I'm practically naked,
Are you turned on,
Are you turned on?
Where I come from
And you know
I'm not one for complaining,
But I love the way you'd roll
Excuses off the tip of your tongue
As I slowly fall apart (slowly, quietly, slowly)
Fall apart
This won't mean a thing come tomorrow
And that's exactly how I'll make it seem
Cause I'm still not sleeping,
Thinking I've crawled home from worse than this
So please, please (please)
I'm running out of sympathy (I'm running out of sympathy!)
And I never said I'd take this
I never said I'd take this lying down
She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with [Repeat x2]
(I never said I'd take this lying down, let's just get this over with,
And I've crawled home from worse than this)
She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with
She says
"Come on, come on"
You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything [Repeat x3]
You always come so close
I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know
You always come close but this never comes easy [Repeat x2]
You always come, you come in close
I never said I'd take this lying down [Repeat x3]
But I've crawled home from worse than this
If it's not keeping you up nights
Then what's the point [Repeat x4]
I'm in your room
Now is this turning you on
Am I turning you on?
I'm in your room
Are you turned on?
I'm on the corner of your bed,
I'm practically naked,
Are you turned on,
Are you turned on?

September never stays this cold
where I come from, and you know
I’m not one (I'm not one) for complainin' (for complainin'),
But I love the way you roll
excuses off the tip of your tongue
as I'd slowly (slowly, quietly, slowly) fall apart (fall apart)
I really just think that the guy is just being annoyed by the girl and is just taking it out on other things, like the way we all do. the last line is amazing in that the girl is just making excuses about why she isnt being a good gf i guess, or just excuses about anything thats not going right, and he's falling apart.
I said, "this won’t mean a thing come tomorrow",
and that’s exactly how I’ll make it seem
'Cause I'm still not sleeping,
thinking I’ve crawled home from worse than this
to him, this fight that theyre having hurt him so much that hes gonna make it seem like it didnt phase him at all because it happens so many times, plus, she almost gets off at hurting him and fighting with him. like she likes it or something. to him, he's gone through worse fights with her.-- "ive crawled home from worse than this"
So please, please (please)
I’m runnin' out of sympathy (I'm runnin' out of sympathy!)
and I never said I’d take this
I never said I'd take this lying down
He's finally had it. hes been taking all her stupid excuses and now hes standing up fo himself.
She says
"come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”
She says
"come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”
(I never said I’d take this lying down, well I've crawled home from worse than this, worse than this)
She says
"come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”
She says
"come on, come on..."
Theyre literally fighting in this verse.. she's saying come on lets just get this over with and break up already..and he's still standing up for himself "i never said id take this lying down" and yelling at her
You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything
You always come close but you never come easy,
I still know everything
This always come close but you never come easy,
I still know everything
Always come so close...
I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know...
he knows all the shit she's done behind his back. "you always come close" as in, youre always THIS close from me catching you, "but this never comes easy" means breaking up is still hard, even if i did catch you.
If it's not keepin' you up nights
then what’s the point,
then what’s the point,
then what’s the point,
then what’s the point?
im not really sure what this means...
I'm in your room,
is this turning you on,
am I turning you on?
I'm in your room,
are you turned on?
I'm on the corner of your bed,
I'm thinkin' maybe,
are you turned on,
are you turned on?
after all their fighting, this takes a quick turn and makes it seem like she's a sex freak that likes it when she gets a rise out of him. theyre just standing in his room and asking if shes turned on by him standing up for himself.
"If it's not keepin' you up nights
then what�s the point,
then what�s the point,
then what�s the point,
then what�s the point?"
means that hes the one up all night upset and shes soundly sleeping it off. like he can fake it prestending he can just forgive her and that it doesnt phase him when shes the one ACTUALLy acting like it.
and the turned on part maybe he loves her so much he gives in to sex to make her like him more.
a beautiful girl can make you dizzy
like you've been drinking jack and coke all morning
she can make you feel high
full of the single greatest commodity known to man --
promise.
promise of a better day.
promise of a greater hope.
promise of a new tomorrow.
this particular aura...
can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl.
in her smile
in her soul
the way she makes every rotten little thing about life
seem like it's gonna to be okay.
thats the intro :-) i love this song!
