Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Can't you see I'm trying?
I don't even like it
I just lied to get to your apartment
Now, I'm staying there just for a while
I can't think 'cause I'm just way too tired
Is this it?
Is this it?
Is this it?
Said they'd give you anything you ever wanted
When they lied, I knew it was just stable
Children trying hard not to realize
I was sitting right behind you
Dear, can't you see?
It's them, it's not me
We're not enemies, we just disagree
If I was like him, all pissed in this bar
He changes his mind, says I went too far
We all disagree, I think we should disagree, yeah
Is this it?
Is this it?
Is this it?
Can't you see I'm trying?
I don't even like it
I just lied to get to your apartment
Now. I'm staying there just for a while
I can't think 'cause I'm just way too tired
