about

Inspired by the film of the same name.

lyrics

It's a back track catching on the back of your last few words before you hung up the phone.
Guess the point in time drew finer lines when you knew you'd be sleeping alone.
Now I stand cup in hand on the street of a car crash thinking of the wreckage we caused,
This piano's broke but I don't take no, 'cause I swear I'm gonna figure it out.
'Cause with everyone going on, and on, and on I feel like shattering glass.
And I'm stuck in reverse and sliding fast.
And before you see all the worst in me, and I keep losing my head,
You made the good things happen instead, you make the good things happen instead.
I was right back snoring on the floor while the pouring rain kept our secrets inside.
And I wanted to shout, get it out, but you doubted honesty in things that I said.
But to me you were easily everything I needed to keep feelings in hand..
Guess it's what I expect, got my head to neck, face down, and I'm feeding on sand.
'Cause with every time I tried and tried and tried I never made that connect.
I'm surround in swirling static sound effect.
And I did believe there was hope for me each night passing out in your bed,
You made the good things happen instead, you make the good things happen instead.
And if I collect enough of these will you run off with me?
It's practically free, I need you to please take it seriously.
'Cause I remember thinking maybe good things happen to me.
You made the good things happen for me, you made the good things happen for me.
I'm punch drunk, I'm a dumb-fuck punk - But I love ya.
And
