Candles

this is how its been since new years
all new friends and old drugs
silence burst and i've got resolutions
number one, more friends who spell my name right
and i could show you what he's not
but we've got legends to keep up
so yr halfway to confidence
(get back in)
and he's dancing in the other room
you cry the same tears every week
so dry yr eyes and get back in
i think yr better than this
i think yr better than...
so we're dead in the water
and i wrote "i think i am falling"
all triangle tied and tight lipped tired eyes
with each others names on our jeans it must be true
and i could show you what he's not
but we've got legends to keep up
so yr halfway to confidence
(get back in)
and he's dancing in the other room
you cry the same tears every week
so dry yr eyes and get back in
i think yr better than this
i think yr better than...
and you think that someday yr gonna be lying awake in yr bed and he'll come floating up and underneath the covers
so take him home
and show yr friends
how his tongue
was two foot long
are your glasses for real?
what i just said
o are yr eyes defective
every step
with failing sight
and all our friends
are taking sides
i could hope. i could hope. i could hope at good hope.
