Confession

I'll admit, I don't know what it is I'm looking for
With one foot in the threshold of your doorway
Wasn't it just yesterday I swore I wanted more
And here I'm playing all of my old games again
I lose but I win, I give up and give in
Who's the catalyst in this experiment
I'm your pet and you're my side project
This is my favorite unconquered addiction
Yet
I confess, I may not be the thing you really need
Promise to mend your heart and leave you bleeding
What a mess, but these little white gloves fit me to a tee
I'm not up for soft and sweet and shattered, guess this is the end
And I lose but I win, I give up and give in
Who's the catalyst in this experiment
I'm your pet and you're my side project
This is my favorite unconquered addiction
Yet
How's it feel to be at the center of a spinning wheel
Knowing that you're going round and round, but that
You'll never really touch the ground
I concede, you may enjoy a brief victory
Lure you in and throw you right back to sea
How'd you ever bring yourself to believe through your homegrown persuasion
You could change my mind, and I'd let you in
I lose but I win, I give up and give in
Who's the catalyst in this experiment
I'm your pet and you're my side project
This is my favorite unconquered addiction
Yet

Even golden rules can break
See the shiny pieces on the floor
Even golden rules can break
Don’t you ever wish for more
Even tried and true can let you down
But you hold so tight to the reins
Even tried and true can let you down
Can you still hear music play
Turn around and find
All of the things you’ve left behind
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
How many times before have you
Shut the door on something good
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
How many times before have you
Shut the door on something good
As Hollywood
Even by the book can fail
Look at all the tired yellow pages
Even by the book can fail
Are you scared of ch-ch-changes
Turn around and find
All the chances you’ve declined
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
How many times before have you
Shut the door on something good
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
How many times before have you
Shut the door on something good
As Hollywood
Even old hat tricks can make you doubt
Things you’ve known, inside and out
Small town fools can be surprising
Wouldn’t it be nice to be surprised
Surprised
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
How many times before have you
Shut the door on something good
No, don’t say it
Don’t say it
How many times before have you
Shut the door on something good
As Hollywood

Met you at nineteen
You were my everything, and I
Set my sights on you
A postcard for my eternity
Ten years down the line, and I
Swear I’d give anything to see
That teenage kind of love
Where everything’s in reach
By the time I came around,
I could barely find the reasons I had loved you
Won’t say you let me down
Who could tell the ways that time would change you
I’ll leave you here by the bridges
With all my undeveloped pictures
If I should stay, I know one day
You’ll change me too
Every time I’ve told
The story of how we came to be
I hear it all unfold
And see you sitting there silently
Carry me away
As my imagination does
Finally saw today, you and I
Will never be enough
By the time I came around,
I could barely find the reasons I had loved you
Won’t say you let me down
Who could tell the ways that time would change you
I’ll leave you here by the bridges
With all my undeveloped pictures
If I should stay, I know one day
You’ll change me too
But in another life
Would we see eye to eye
Could we have ever been
All that I imagined
Finally realized
Maybe you and I were only little lines
That my mind colored in
I’ll leave you here by the bridges
With all my undeveloped pictures
If I should stay, I know one day
You’ll change me too
I’ll leave you here by the bridges
With all my undeveloped pictures
If I should stay, I know one day
You’ll change me too
