Room on Fire lyrics

Talk to me now I'm older
Your friend told you 'cause I told her
Friday nights have been lonely
Change your plans and then phone me

We could go and get 4

So many fish there in the sea
I wanted you, you wanted me
That's just a phase, it's got to pass
I was a train moving too fast

Didn't understand what is to see
Yeah, then I got a different view
It's you now

Wait, I'm not gonna give it a break
I'm not your friend, I never was
I said, wait, I'm not gonna give it a break
I'm not your friend, I never was, no

So many fish there in the sea

watched her as she wiped her eyes
you dont make me sorry
now i know
uh that you never, listened, listen

thinkin bout that high school dance
worried bout the finals
yes i know
you feelin lonely, oh lonely so lonely

never needed anybody
i never needed anybody
i never needed anybody
i never needed nobody
dont worry bout it honey
i never needed anybody
i never needed anybody

it wont change

That was you up on the mountain
All alone and all surrounded
Walking on the ground you're breaking
Laughing at the life you're wasting
One, two tries won't do it
You do it all your life and you never get through it
Everything they had to say
Had been erased in just one day

Good try, we don't like it
Good try, we won't take that shit

I can't win.

Things in bars that people do

When they say promises
They mean promises.
They'd say, "that's ok,
Long as we can celebrate"
You see, my uncle would say
things would change when he's dead...

"Meet me in the bathroom"
That's what she said
I don't mind...it's true.

Never was on time
Yes, I once was mine
Well, that was long ago
And darling, I don't mind.
Yeah, we were just two friends in lust
And baby, that just don't mean much

He seemed impressed by the way you came in
"Tell us a story, i know you're not boring"
I was afraid that you would not insist
"You sound so sleepy, just take this, now leave me"

I said: "Please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast"
You're in a strange part of our town

Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough,
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road

One by one,
Tiking timebombs won,
It's not a secret to the government
Is keeping you dump,
Oh its the other way around
Wait, whats that sound?
One by one, baby here we come

He wants it easy,
He want it relaxed
Said I can do a lotta things, but I cant do that
Two steps forward then three steps back alright

Wont you take a walk outside,
Oh no,
Cant you find another guy,
Oh no,

She was still sleepin
The problem will stay

One more day

Said shes not sorry
The wind blows her way
Accidents happen
Theres one planned today
Oh you see...

I wish it was not true
But that's the way it is
It's not your fault
That's the way it is
I'm sick of you
And that's the way it is
And will always be

Wednesday is over
Its over again
Said my goodbyes

i dont wanna waste your time,
i dont wanna waste your time.
i just wanna say. i've got to say.
you are gone, darling.
we dont have no control, we're under control.

i don't wanna do it your way.
i don't wanna do it your way.
i dont wanna give into your way.
i don't wanna.

i don't wanna change your mind.
i dont wanna change the world.
i just wanna watch it go by.

I wanna be forgotten
And I don't wanna be reminded
He said please, don't make this harder
No, I won't yet
I wanna be beside her
She wanna be admired
He said please, don't make this harder
No, I won't yet

Oh dear, is it really untrue
That they are famous and they want it to sound new
Topped in ideas for countdown shows
Who's culture is this and does anybody know

Now we're out of time
I said it's my fault
It's my fault

Can't make good decisions
It won't stop
I can't stop

Give me some time, I just need a little time
Give me some time, I just need a little time
Give me some time, I just need a little time
Give me some time, I just need a little time

You talk way too much
You talk way too much
It's only the end
It's only the end...hey
