Semi-Automatic Lyrics

Well you are a full-functioning semi automatic weapon
temper, temper,
I am the temper, temper

your family's crest
your familys nest
no it didn't fall far from the tree
oh yeah you came up on it honestly

see, I was never any good for you
I was never any good for you

I whisper softly
and looking back darling
painfully honest
I broke that promise
but misery loves company
loves history
and has a tendancy to play like a broken record
play like a broken record

you slut me into this decision
I was sound ?
willing, willing
I was limp for the taking

considering
my family's crest
my family's nest
no it didn't fall far from the tree
oh I came about it honesty

I was never any good for you
I was never any good for you

I whisper softly
and looking back darling
I'm painfully honest
I broke that promise
but history loves company
loves history
and has a tendancy to play like a broken record
play like a broken record

I play like a broken record
(play like a broken record)

temper, temper
temper, temper
(you play like a broken record)
temper, temper
temper, temper
temper, temper
temper, temper
(you play like a broken record)
temper, temper
temper, temper
temper, temper
(you play like a broken record)
temper, temper
temper, temper
(you play like a broken record)
temper, temper

I whisper softly
and looking back darling
I'm painfully honest
I broke that promise
but history loves company
loves misery
and has a tendancy to play like a broken record
play like a broken record

I play like a broken record
I play like a broken record
I play like a broken record

Cover art for Semi-Automatic lyrics by Taking Back Sunday

Awesome song, definitely check out the old Louder Now demo, often titled 'Divine Intervention Demo.'

Lyrics sound mostly correct, the 2nd verse is off though. Only changes I would know is 'you -slut- me into this decision.' I'm not sure about the line that follows that, but then it's 'willing, willing.' instead of limping.

Maybe someday an incarnation of this song will actually make it on an album :)
