We Were Something Lyrics by Jeremy McComb

My Side of Town

0

In my own defense, I never meant for it to get as serious as quick as it did
If I could rewind I'd go back and I'd hold the hands of time with a white knuckle grip
Before we were asking too much of love
Before we were prisoners of us it was just
Wild flowers hanging dry that were growing on the other side of That barbed wire fence I tried to climb got 5 stitches and that first kiss goodnight
We were something, when we were still nothing
Before the complications and the blame gaming and the words that never came that never got in the way with
We were at war with silent swords, silence wasn't silence anymore
Yea we sold cheap, the love that we once owned, oh
Left standing with my innocence stripped to the bone
Where'd we go
We were sad old monsters of the 13th row of that b minus movie where I almost choked
To death on some pop corn but you shed your coke that was the first night u didn't go home
We were something, when we were still nothing but notes on a window
And laughing at jokes that weren't funny on the phone going on about nothing
Till 3 in the morning
We were something, we were something, we were still
