The Unbearable Burden of Always Being Right Lyrics by Drowningman

Still Loves You

2001

Take heart attacks without cracking a smile
We learned from the guys who always get it right
And if you lift us up you'll always let us down
When you're five feet away it should feel like fifty-five
We never gave them a moment's peace
Or the satisfaction of seeing us break down
The pen and the ink they stab start through the heart
Draws on lies and the feelings will start at the back of your knees
And we'll watch through the holes
Strategically cut in your bathroom walls while you choke
Perfectly timed and it's taken us years
And the sickness still lives like cement in your veins
With your eyes glued back to these spots on your walls
Perfectly timed and its taken us years
To find in ourselves the strength to concede
To admit that we're wrong
To admit to the things that we've done
This is my life I will not be ashamed
Close to me, close enough
Reach inside and take what you want
Who's the one who picks up the pieces on your own bathroom floor?
Found fault in almost anyone
Ruined almost everything
Found fault in almost anyone
Ruined almost everything
Found fault in almost anyone
Ruined almost everything
Found fault in almost anyone
Ruined almost everything
Reach inside
Sticks like the ords on the tip of my tongue
Looks for a way to come out all wrong
Sticks like the ords on the tip of my tongue
Paper answers everything
We just like the way these words look on the page
Paper answers everything
I can't find a thing at all in here
Paper answers everything
At least it did
Paper answers almost everything
