Listen to Snakes Like Converse here:
www.myspace.com/snakeslikeconverse"You Break It, You Bought It"I can't open this book again
Put my future down and fix the broken now.
I'd much rather pretend
That everything is alright
And I don't have to explain
Another mistake I madeor put my face on the blame.
Your hair in an upturn
I caught your eyes across the room
The look on your face veiled the lies that you told
There was no concern
For what had been done or what to do
Now that it was all out in the open
That's not the way I wanted
Thing to go,
But I can tell
That everything you did
Well, in the end,
Didn't mean shit
And now
I wish so bad
That you could just take it back----
but, see here's the thing
I still love you and maybe I miss you sometimes and
I should say sorry for not being honest
But my honesty was never the best
And I need to say
(What I need to say )
What I need to say
I've out grown you anyway.
And you need to say
(What you need to say )
What you need to say
But you won't fucking say it to my face.
Your hair in an upturn
Flecked with brown and red
And every color that I've tried to forget.
So now it's your turn
To carry this burden
Like a cross- go put it on someone else.
That's not the way I wanted
Things to go
But I can tell
That you don't give a shit
Whether this
Will end well
So
I'm sorry for
Refusing to take it back----
Ooh oh oooh
I won't play the friend, walk that road again because I won't make it back
And I'm not sure I want to settle the score until you take it back.
Your hair in an upturn-
You're like a desease
That's hell bent on spreading in me.
Now it's your turn
To catch your own sickness at a price
Yeah, go pay the backstabbing fee
It's exacatly how things should have gone
But at least I can say
That in the end
I'll benifit
From all this pain
And you will never know
Until you
(Take it back)
Ohh oh oh
Your hair in an upturn
Flecked with brown and red
And every color that I've tried to forget.
So now it's your turn
To carry this burden
Like a cross- go put it on someone else.
"If You Need Time Bring More Bombs"You told me you liked attention
"Yeah," you said "it really gets me."
I said, "Are you being honest?"
You said, "Yeah, it's so amazing".
Mountains collide
I hate this ride.
I'm love sick
On this relationship.
I would end my sentences
With positives if it mattered
I would start my paragraphs
With indents if they counted.
As truth goes
I'm still a liar.
As far as lies go,
I'm so justified.
So I promise I won't stop winning
If you promise to always
LOSE!
And I'm just a kid but I want you to know that you deserve it.
Those distasteful looks weren't for community service
And that's not the half of it.
I don't believe a single word you say
But that's alright because you're not
Talking to me anyway.
And I know that you've unhooked a bra or two
Yeah that's nice,
But you've never cracked a spine in your life.
Try and find some reasoning behind the phrase,
"You should be strong".
You still cry every night
So who am I being strong for?
Honestly,
Courtesy,
Never met a girl like me.
I would step with my left foot
If I thought my right would fail me.
I would call the kettle black
If I thought it wouldn't sue me.
Say it again.
I'm still a liar.
But only when
I'm this justified.
So I promise I won't stop winning
If you promise to always
LOSE!
And I'm just a kid but I want you to know that you deserve it.
Those distasteful looks weren't for community service
And that's not the half of it.
I don't believe a single word you say
But that's alright
Because you're not
Talking to me anyway.
And I know that you've unhooked a bra or two
Yeah that's nice,
But you've never cracked a spine in your life.
Oh I love you.
Oh I need you.
Oh I love the way you ignore me.
Oh I need it- placemat presents
And the way you never know what to tell me.
You're romantic like a death on Christmas morning
I should have told you this all five years ago.
You're addictive as a few shots of morphine
But I can pull through withdrawal like a pro so...
WOAH OH A OH OH
WOAH OH A OH OH
WOAH OH A OH OHOOooo...
