All shook up
No thumbs up
No more interlock and key
There's twenty-two
Stops to you
Tell me what's a boy to do?
And I'm not ashamed to say
That I've never ever prayed
But I'm starting to think that I really should
You see I'm half the man I used to be back then
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't want to go
But I didn't have the power to hold on
Mystery surrounds it
Everything around it
I was too polite to fight for you
For you
Give me speed
To concede
If you don't I'm gonna bleed
Woe is you
Woe is me
Tell me what's a boy to be?
And the way I'm acting now
Is derivative and foul
And I'm starting to annoy myself
You see I'm half the man I used to be back then
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't want to go
But I didn't have the power to hold on
Mystery surrounds it
Everything around it
I was too polite to fight for you
Oh, did you lie?
Did you lie?
Did you lie beneath the stars
When you fell from my arms?
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't want to go
But I didn't have the power to hold on
To you
That night
Night
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't want to go
But I didn't have the power to hold on
To you
That night
Night
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't want to go
But I didn't have the power to hold on
To you
That night
Night
I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
The night I lost you
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't want to go
But I didn't have the power to hold on
Mystery surrounds it
Everything around it
I was too polite to fight for you
Oh, did you lie?
Did you lie?
Did you lie beneath the stars
When you fell from my arms?
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't want to go
But I didn't have the power to hold on
To you
That night
