Capital M-E Lyrics by Taking Back Sunday

New Again

2009

[Verse 1]
The nicest man I ever met
Was more malicious than malcontent
Yeah, he taught me how to hold my tongue
And wait to strike 'til their backs were turned
[Pre-Chorus]
And you slither away like the snake that you are
Yeah, you slither away like the snake that you are
[Chorus]
All I ever did was look up to you
And if all I ever did was let, let you down
Ain't nothing stopping me now
[Verse 2]
Divinity spelt correctly beneath
The receding pride of his twenties
Was capital m-e (I couldn't subscribe)
Was capital m-e (but you can't say I didn't try)
You say what you want (Maybe I didn't get my way)
So you say what you want (Maybe I didn't get my way)
But I got, I got away
[Chorus]
All I ever did was look up to you
And if all I ever did was let, let you down
Ain't nothing stopping me now
[Bridge]
Was it everything you hoped for?
Was it all of that and more?
Too much too soon?
Or too good to be true?
Was it everything you hoped for?
Was it all of that and more?
[Chorus]
All I ever did was look up to you
And if all I ever did was let, let you down
Ain't nothing stopping me now
But all I ever did was look up to you
And if all I ever did was let, let you down
Ain't nothing stopping me now
