Amanda Lyrics by Bug Hunter

Surge of Confidence

2015

[Verse 1]
You made safe seem like a tourist trap
A pit stop not plotted on any map but I
Still found it far away from you
And that don't do much to unfrustrate me
You were more or less moralless, guaranteed
So I don't know why you're acting so confused

[Chorus]
'Cause I'd rather take a walk than take a punch
If I'd known it'd take so long I wouldn't have given up so much
We could twist and shout our words to pinpoints who the hell to blame
But I won't name any names... Amanda

[Verse 2]
I once knew a guy about five foot five
He picked fights each night with guys twice his size
He'd lose each try and act surprised as he
Took a dive toward a pair of black eyes
What a tough guy, what strong cry
I sat him down and asked him why
He sighed, gave no reply
I found out he died the very next night
But I'm twice as dumb as him for loving you

[Chorus]
'Cause I'd rather take a walk than take a punch
If I'd known it'd take so long I wouldn't have given up so much
We could twist and shout our words to pinpoints who the hell to blame
But I won't name any names... Amanda

[Bridge]
Before the door could seal your exit
But within the range of my final desperate cries of slights and warning signs;
My barrage of blame and petty lines
I sit here, tensing, pressed to think up
The subtlest ways I could point the finger
And it feels sooooo good

[Verse 3]
Tell your friends I'm just another creep, a brief
Time-killer while you found your feet
Just a space-filler wedged between
More suitable suitors more in your league
Or a remedy for boredom
We seemed great but in reality
I was one of three, or seventeen
I've never seen a lie to this degree
But now that I have a mic and people listening to me
I swear I'll keep the strictest code of anonymity
Amanda

[Chorus]
I'd rather take a walk than take a punch
If I'd known it'd take so long I wouldn't have given up so much
We could twist and shout our words to pinpoints who the hell to blame
But I won't name any names... Amanda
I won't name any names... Amanda
