My Apology Lyrics
You'll be accepting my apology
for taking things too seriously.
Sometimes I'm old enough to keep routines,
sometimes I'm child enough to scream for everything.
I broke in two.
You're barely missing me,
I'm missing you and everything you do.
I really do.
My once photographic memory,
for recollection's sake is failing me.
I can't remember for the life of me.
Sometimes I can think to recite
words that I read and rewrite.
My pens paint people that I've proven wrong,
but we move on.
Get a job where I tell all of my accounts
of someone else.
I'm quick enough to judge that they were wrong
and that we knew it all along.
Sing a long long-winded song.
I would be content to hum along.
If I state that my fingers know where to show
what everyone should have know,
I'll let it go.
Hopefully you'll forget the word that I put in print.
My luck,
you'll change and have strength enough to walk away.
for taking things too seriously.
Sometimes I'm old enough to keep routines,

essa música é muito boa, eu esperava um pouco mais da letra que na minha opinião é um tanto viajada mas muito boa também!
I really like this song, my favorite on "Something to Write Home About"..."Sing a long long-winded song. I would be content to hum along." I like that line...it doesn't mean anything to me, I just find it "lyrically clever"
I think that the songwriter is regretting lyrics he has written in the past that perhaps have painted people in not the brightest tones... Same dilemma that every artist has, their own opinion of their work almost always gets more negative as time progresses and they change.. (ie Rivers Cuomo) More specifically, I think the line "sing a long.....hum along" means that the lyrics aren't really necessary when the music can tell the story.
i can definately relate to the first five lines of this song... i make my friends (and teachers, parents, everyone) so mad at me all the time... and when my friends get all uptight about stuff, i get all "serious" and stuff. hehe.
Silence is a virtue, But forgiveness is forever....
I really like this song.
great song... a must listen to any emo fan
I like this song because it is easy to listen to. The beat and style of it isn't much like their style and maybe that is why I like to so damn much.
this song is great. thats me, exactly. i take everything seriously. it got so bad in the end. sux a lot. amazing song, these guys rock.
This song is just...me. "Sometimes I'm old enough to keep routines, sometimes I'm child enough to scream" This is one of my favorite songs ever, I feel like they wrote it about me, I wish they did. I love these guys.
