Lyrics

0:02When you jumped into the lake
0:06I thought I'd made a mistake
0:10In letting you go
0:14But the hope is if the ocean could drown you
0:20And a thousand men could tame you
0:25And a thousand milligrams of morphine
0:31Would kill you
0:34You'd have wished you never left your room
0:38Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
0:41For a game of kiss and tell
0:51You'd have wished you never left your room
0:54Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
0:58For a game of kiss and tell
1:08And when you chopped off your fun
1:12I had to reply your gumption
1:16But I could not bring myself to reply
1:25The time you poisoned my
1:29With a dash of this and a dash of that
1:34His head went purple and that was that
1:40My feet are sore I hear I'm just a bore
1:43There are things we better ignore
1:46And things to die for
1:49My feet are sore I hear I'm just a bore
1:52There are things we better ignore
1:55And things to die for
2:05You'd have wished you never left your room
2:09Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
2:12For a game of kiss and tell
2:21You'd have wished you never left your room
2:25Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
2:29For a game of kiss and tell
When you jumped into the lake
I thought I'd made a mistake
In letting you go
But the hope is if the ocean could drown you
And a thousand men could tame you
And a thousand milligrams of morphine
Would kill you
You'd have wished you never left your room
Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
For a game of kiss and tell
You'd have wished you never left your room
Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
For a game of kiss and tell
And when you chopped off your fun
I had to reply your gumption
But I could not bring myself to reply
The time you poisoned my
With a dash of this and a dash of that
His head went purple and that was that
My feet are sore I hear I'm just a bore
There are things we better ignore
And things to die for
My feet are sore I hear I'm just a bore
There are things we better ignore
And things to die for
You'd have wished you never left your room
Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
For a game of kiss and tell
You'd have wished you never left your room
Knowing d**n well you fall so soon
For a game of kiss and tell
