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 [bad word] back 
The strike of a match 
The candle's buring at both ends." 

And now she knows too much 
And I'm too [bad word] 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 L.A. 
But I drove home all alone 
As if I had a choice, anyway 

Where are [bad word] from? 
What are [bad word] 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
