HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAREN!!!! my big sister turns 21 today. pee your pants.
i love konstantine.
i love Something Corporate.
I can't imagine all the people that you know and the places that you go when the lights are turned down low. and I don't understand all the things you've seen, but I'm slipping in between you and your big dreams…It's always you, in my big dreams. And you tell me that it's over, but I can't stand here in a patch of four leaf clovers and your restless, and I'm naked. You've got to get out, you can't stand to see me shaking…No, could you let me go?…
And you don't want to be here in the future so you say the presents’ just a pleasant interruption to the past. And you don't want to look much closer cause you're afraid to find out all this hope you had sent into the sky by now had crashed…and it did because of me…
And then you bring me home, afraid to find out that you’re alone. And I'm sleeping in your living room, but we don't have much room to live.
And I had dreams that I would learn to play guitar, maybe cross the country…become a rock star. And there was hope in me that I could take you there, but damnit you're so young…Well I don't think I care
And if I hurt you then I'm sorry…It's just this guilt has got the best of me…
And then you bring me home cause we both know what it's like to be alone. And I'm dreaming in your living room, but we don't have much room to live.
And Konstantine is coming down the stairs…doesn't she look good, standing in her underwear? and I've been thinking, what I've been thinking, but she's been drinking, and it doesn't get me anywhere…
And Konstantine came walking down the stairs and all that I could do was touch her long, blonde hair…and I've been thinking…what I was thinking you know, that we've been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere…
This is because I can spell confusion with a 'K', it's hard to like it…it's to dying in another's arms and why I had to try it. It’s to Jimmy Eat World and those nights in my car, but this time I'm alone and I don't see those stars…I'm not your star…Isn't that what you said what you thought this song meant?…You thought this song meant…
And if this is what it takes to lie with my mistakes and live with what I did to you and all the things I put you through…I always catch the clock, It's 11:11, and now you want to talk?…It's not hard to dream, you'll always be my Konstantine…
They'll never hurt you like I do…No, they'll never hurt you like I do…No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
This is to a girl who got into my head with all these pretty things she did…hey, baby, you know you keep me up in bed…
It's to a girl who got into my head with all these fucked up things I did
Hey, maybe, baby you could keep me up in bed…
My Konstanine…you spin around me like a dream we played out on this movie screen. And I said
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
Did you know I miss you?
God, I miss you.
And then you bring me home and we go to sleep, but this time not alone and you kiss me in your living room and you see what I've been missing in my living room cause it's all you…this is what I've missed, what I miss…
We don't have much room…I said does anybody really need that room?…Because we all need a little bit of room to live…
My Konstantine.
