Intro
------------------
Verse 1
I stood by somebody else
and then I stood by you
I couldn't move my legs
I didn't know what to do
I fail to find the words
I try hard to be cool
I die to hear your voice it's
smoothly ringing in the room
Verse 2
I see you're a surgeon in the looks
what could you possibly see in me
I lost the job I had who picked
me up when I'm in mom and dad's
You know I'll let you cut me up
I know you hate to see me bleed
Is it the color of my blood
or me in the complete?
Chorus 1
18 They had it out for us and
We were always set for a fall
You saved 197--9 to me it was
the end of the world
Yeah right, we're
safe we're cool
I know you always wanted more
Pick me we're so
clean we'll wake
up when the worst is over
Interlude
----------------
Verse 3
Did I tell you I was premature?
I'm not fit to follow rules
I always fuck things up I guess
that makes life more interesting
You think that I'm absurd
well certainly with you
I am absolutely assured
I am ill conceived
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Interlude
Bridge
There is always something wrong
but I need to see it through
I don't mean to be obsessed
I don't need to be amused
I can't stand to be a stain
that needs to be removed
If I sacrificed myself then
(hold)
I'd know I never knew you
Chorus 2
18 They had it out for us
We were always set for a fall
You saved 197--9 to me it was
the end of the world
Yeah right, we're
safe we're cool
I know you always
set for fall
always set for fall
Chorus 3
18 They had it out for us
18 They had it out for us
I know you always wanting more
Pick me we're so clean we'll
wake up when the worst is over
Take me steering wheel to the
cliff now we're going over
Kiss me kiss and bleed we'll
wake up now the worst is over
