Apple Shampoo

She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving The good intentions that you had Now only came to this And although she saw the mark The arrow missed It isn't exciting reciting the stories Of kind words turned hurting When routine gets boring Both getting tired of punk rock clubs And both playing in punk rock bands The start was something good But some good things must end And she said, "It could never survive With such differing lives One home, one out on tour again We may never come back The strike of a match The candle burning at both ends" And now she knows too much And I'm too fucked up It's awkward trying to make my move I'll pretend that I'm fine Show up right on time But I know I'll never be that cool I never wanted to hold you back I just wanted to hold on But my chance is gone I know just where I stand A boy trapped in the body of a man and I'll take what you're willing to give And I'll teach myself to live With a walk-on part of a background shot From a movie I'm not in She's so important And I'm so retarded And now I realize I should have kissed you in LA But I drove home all alone As if I had a choice, anyway Where are you coming from? What are you running from? Is it so hard to see? And if you're feeling scared Remember the time we shared You know it meant everything (everything) You know that it meant everything to me You know that it meant everything to me --- Apple Shampoo - blink-182
