Glitch Lyrics by Marlinspike

Old Scores & New Horizons

2008

[Verse 1]
When things are going well, if everything is fine
That's when I know it's only a matter of time
Until I prove again what the past has always shown
That I just can't leave well enough alone
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Do something dumb just for something to do
Never a thought about how it affects you
Lost in my own little space and time
Where the only feelings that matter are mine
[Chorus 1]
There's gotta be something wrong with me
Why did it take so long to see?
Yet somehow I've always known
I guess that's why I'll always end up alone
[Verse 2]
With еvery coming day brings a feeling that I dread
Pain from the battlе inside my head
Fight for power to decide which side is gonna win
(But) So far the dark side rackin' up the sins
When that conscience whispers I strain to listen
[Refrain]
There's gotta be something wrong with me
Why did it take so long to see?
Yet somehow I've always known
I guess that's why I'll always end up alone
[Chorus 2]
Something about me just ain't right
Nothing upstairs but a burnt out light
They're ringing the bell but there's nobody home
I guess that's why I always end up alone
[Bridge]
Trying to be the good guy in the movie of my life
Someone, who everyone can trust and depend
But I can't resist another plot twist
And the script gets another rewrite
And somehow it always turns out
I'm the bad guy in the end
When they say "just be yourself"
Does it matter how you are?
Never satisfied until I take it too far
[Verse 3]
Well I tried it for a while, but I can't do it anymore
Nobody wants the boat rocked so I'll jump out and swim to shore
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Looking around to find someone to blame
Doesn't matter who, it always ends up the same
Never understood, maybe never really tried
Until I looked in the mirror and realized
[Chorus 1]
There's gotta be something wrong with me
Why did it take so long to see?
Yet somehow I've always known
I guess that's why I'll always end up alone
[Chorus 2]
Something about me just ain't right
Nothing upstairs but a burnt out light
They're ringing the bell but there's nobody home
I guess that's why I always end up alone
