CHORUS We all put our money in the bank We waste our time together We waste our time together We waste our time together We all put our money in the bank We waste our time together Friends and friends of lovers We waste our time together VERSE 1 I'm still figuring out how to get along getting by and getting off I thought by now I'd've got it all getting by and i'm getting on VERSE 2 I'm still figuring out if I got it wrong getting high and getting gone You thought by now I'd be done that all but I go along getting lost. BRIDGE Your plans and dreams don't mean anything to me The space between A and B could be zero or infinity. CHORUS BRIDGE 2 Getting high and getting bombed Getting by and getting on Get it right still get it wrong Go around getting lost CHORUS

if you catch me at the airport, like a movie, in a line and you tell me that you love me more than anyone you've liked and you do it all last minute, so it sounds straight from the heart and embrace me in your arms, as my plane should soon depart if you tell me a nice story and the timing is just right then i might look at you differently, yea you might change my mind and we will be remembered by the people who work there as two self-important lovers for whose rules we did not care so tell me how you ran out as your taxi screeched to halt how you jumped the line to find me, how you pushed past all the cops how you overcome that weakness where you hesitate to act only thinking about you and me and how you want me back how you left important people at an inopportune time how you finally took a chance, how you put it on the line and if you tell me a great story and the timing is just right then i'll come back.....then i'll come back tonight (yea i'll come home)

Stuck in a rut where I don't know where I'm going Everything remains quite the same, a slight decaying She's the one that breaks the cyclical chains I've been pulling. It's a single breath of fate that grows a spark into a flame. I am well prepared. I've considered all the ways this could end. First, we stay the course. Resign ourselves to waste. Trade our hearts for face. Or we run away completely unexplained and leave 'em all behind. Or we face the fire. Those two, the masses and their ire and call it brave. Can you hear my voice? Self-preservation's not a choice. Can't give up my life. Either your heart or my heart gets the knife. You are over there obviously aware how bad it can get. Look, I'm sorry things have changed in ways that I can't explain. I also thought we'd make it. And awkwardly I speak, "It's not you it's me. In time you'll see. I'll move out today. You can keep the place. It's the least I can do."

Yeah guys like us write love songs for girls like you but guys like us make mistakes too. 십분 후 (10 minutes later) Where are you? 내 여자친구 (My girlfriend) 슬프고 (I'm sad) 모르고 (I don't know) 혼자 있어요 (I'm all alone) 용서해 (Forgive me) 화해해 (Let's make up) 다시 안 할게 (I will not do it again) 날 믿어 (Believe me) 전화 줘 (Call me) 내가 기다려 (I will wait)
