A Place for my mind to wander.

Jimmy Eat World, Kill

well you're just across the street
looks a mile to my feet
i want to go to you
funny how i'm nervous still
i've always been the easy kill
i guess i always will

could it be that everything goes around by chance?
or only one way that was always meant to be?
you tell me you always know the perfect thing to say
i know what i should do but i just can't walk away

i can picture your face well
from the bar in my hotel
i wish i'd go to you
i pick up, put down the phone
like your favorite heatmiser song goes
"it's just like being alone"
Oh God, please don't tell me this has been in vain
I need answers for what all the waiting after means
you tell me you got some nerve but can't face your mistakes

i know what i should do
but i just can't turn away
so go on love
leave while there's still hope for escape
you got to take what you can these days
there's so much ahead, and so much regret

I know what you want to say
I know it but can't help feeling differently
I loved you and I should of said it
but tell me what has it ever meant
I can't help it baby this is who I am
I'm sorry but i can't just go turn off how i feel
you tell me you fill me up but just to watch me break

I know what i should do
but i just can't walk away.
