Atomic lyrics

I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
I'm thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Cuz you'll be back with me then

I'm carryin the weight
The weight of the world
That doesn't wanna wait for me
It spins me all around
And then it spits me out
Recycled like a Christmas tree

You picked me up when no one would

I'm in over my head
They wanna try and build me up
So they can tear me down
I wish that I could be back there
But I'm writing here right now

They've taken everything that I've had to give and
They say it's over but man I'm still here livin
I don't know what to do, I think that maybe

I'm in over my head
Stuck in the red
Somethin they said
Makes me think that I'm in over my head
Over my head

I've been fallin' apart at the seams
But it's not as it seems
Broken pieces around at my feet
That I dance on
In my darkest day
In my darkest day I can find you
We've come all this way
And I'm still runnin' after it
Yeah

[CHORUS:]
I, I, live for this
I, I, I'd trade it for nothin'

I've been waiting for someone like you
To be waiting for me

Common sense
Goes out the window like a cigarette
I take a hit again
When all her friends
They talk about me in a past tense
I take the hit again

[BRIDGE:]
She walks in in the middle of the night
Like we're good to go
All screwed up but it just feels right
And I don't wanna know where you go
Or how we went wrong
And when I think I can't go on

[CHORUS:]
She comes

I shoulda called but it was late and you were sleeping, my dear
I would hate for you to hear what I was putting you through
I'm tryin' hard to be the man I know that you think I am
I'm really glad you weren't there but now I wish you were here

[BRIDGE:]
Cuz we're so wonderful
And so untouchable
And just when I thought it was under control
Everything just starts to...

Well I'm dreaming 'bout a Cadillac
And a girl that I used to have
But I know that I could never go back
To the day we took a photograph
That I'm holdin' in my hand
I can't believe I messed it up so bad
If I get another chance
I'd never waste it yeah
I swear I'll be a better man

[CHORUS:]
And I'll tell you right now
We'll make it up next time around
Yeah!

I've got a hundred thousand watts, hundred thousand dollar stereo
Surrounded by speakers but I'm mono as hell
Got a hundred sad songs about the day that you walked out
And I'm feeling so down
It's just a bad situation

I wish that I could say that...

[CHORUS:]
I don't care about the sunny weather
Don't care about the sex when we're together

Got a tattoo
Got it colored in with blue
Cuz it's a picture of your cold, sad face
And now it's true
We're probably better off apart
And we knew it from the start
That you never wanna stop
Wanting me wanting you no

Get up I think it's time for you to go
I don't know why you stay or what you're waiting for

[CHORUS:]
I'll get by
As long as you want me
I'll be fine

It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime

I've gotta make up for losin' time
Cuz I've been spinnin' my wheels all night
And I can't wait
Can't hardly wait to see you
Things seem better off now
I think I'm better off now

[CHORUS:]
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I

You kiss me on the way up
Kick me when I fall down
Under the radar
Stick me in the lost and found
Lipstick and bruises
Up and down

[CHORUS:]
This is what you always wanted
It's what you asked for
This is what you always wanted
And now you want more

Now these are all your new friends
Baby, you're a rock star now
Runnin' with the devil
Kiss me when the lights go down
Lipstick and bruises

She calls me up
Says she's comin' over
So I run home
(oooh-ooh)
Just to wait around
She calls me names
Then we play some mind games
And I don't know
(oooh-ooh)
But I think I like it

Now she's the only one
Who blocks my number
And she's the only one call

[CHORUS:]
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see
(Yeah, oh yeah)

I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
Sick and tired of all the promises that I make to you
And I break to you
And I know you think you've heard it all before
Something tells me that you think I'm stupid when I say to you
That what I say is true
Too much lyin', too little tryin'

[CHORUS:]
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again

They say something I don't wanna hear
Ringin' like a shotgun in my ear
But they don't know what I'm really aimin' for
Gonna leave a mark on society

[BRIDGE:]
Faster and faster my whole situation
Fallin' apart, crossin' my heart
And I hope to live
But something has to give

[CHORUS:]
'Cuz I just wanna be something
I just wanna be someone
Someone who stands out in the crowd
Mother would be proud

I remember you
do you remember me too
but on the 14th of July
the smell of roses made her cry
though your going far from home
rest assured your not alone

Cause I would give everything that I own
I'd give you my heart and this skin and these bones
the sun the moon the Earth the sky
I've never even stopped to wonder why
I would do anything
and I would give everything
