Forgive me, I didn't give you the benefit
|
You gave me no reason not to believe you, hmm
|
But I don't and I don't know why
|
Why I did what I did
|
Something in that room must've moved me
|
But I'll try real hard to figure it out
|
I'll try so hard
|
In the meantime, I'll wear myself out
|
But I won't let down my guard
|
|
Give me one reason why I shouldn't be riding the brakes
|
And I'll lift up, turn, try to take your pace
|
But don't go rocking on my ignition
|
If we got 9 lives, then 8 of my cards are gone
|
I got no time left to be righting my wrongs
|
So where's the ace? Cause I'm not listening
|
|
It's funny how my past seems to overcome
|
What could have been perfect
|
But I see it all through a, a muddy sky
|
I can't say there won't be regret
|
Huh, cause you never rehearse it
|
It just finds a way to tunnel on out
|
Some stranger way
|
Before you know it, you're dead in doubt
|
You've lost before you've played
|
|
Oh, give me one reason why I shouldn't be riding the brakes
|
And I'll lift up, turn, try to take your pace
|
But don't go rocking on my ignition
|
If we got 9 lives, then 8 of my cards are gone
|
I got no time left to be righting my wrongs
|
So where's the ace? Cause I'm not listening
|
I'm not listening
|
|
But if you see it fit to hold on out til later
|
It'd be cool if you'd lift me with one favor
|
|
And give me one reason why I shouldn't be riding the brakes
|
And I'll lift up, turn, try to take your pace
|
But don't go rocking on my ignition, come on
|
If we got 9 lives, then 8 of my cards are gone
|
I got no time left to be righting my wrongs
|
So where's the ace? Cause I'm not listening
|
I'm not listening, oh no
|
