Cover art for The Calendar lyrics by Panic! at the Disco

They said if you don't let it out You're gonna let it eat you away I'd rather be a cannibal baby Animals like me don't talk anyway [People say you shouldn't let your feelings fester, he says he'd much rather do that because he's not the person to talk]

Feel like an ambulance Chaser of faith Pray I could replace her forget the way her tears taste, Oh the way her tears taste [He's chasing the faith that it could last, but he can't replace "her" (I still have an inkling that it's a Ryden song) or forget the sadness he caused her.]

Put another ex on the calendar Summer's on its deathbed There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends And I meant everything I said that night I will come back to life, But only for you Only for you [He can see the end of their close relationship, he had a confrontation with the person and said things the other person may have thought was just a ruse, but he meant it and he would only go back to his normal self for that person.]

The world may call it a second chance but when I think back it was more of a relapse Anticipations on the other line and obsession called while you were out Yeah it called when you were out [When the band broke up it was their second chance, but they went back to a similar style of their first album, hence 'relapse'. Fans are anticipating and obsessing over what's going on with the break-up, but the person just doesn't seem to be around]

Put another x on the calendar Summer's on its deathbed There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends And I meant everything I said that night I will come back to life, But only for you Only for you

Asleep in the hive I guess all the buzzing got to me But I'm still alive At night your body is a symphony and I'm conducting (conducting) [Everyone's comments finally got to him, whether it be fans or other people. He's saying he's still himself, and that they have something sexually musical between them]

Said if you don't let it out, you're gonna let it eat you away

Put another x on the calendar Summer's on its deathbed There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends And I meant everything I said that night I will come back to life, But only for you Only for you
