lyrics

Was I torturing you? / with my heels in my hand / talking shit like a man / I knocked over a bar stool and ruined your plans / well honey / you're still torturing me / all my fears advertised / in those jade colored eyes / always talking 'bout suicide / and another man's wife / well / I never meant to take it this far / you said "I think I love you" / then you tried to jump out of my car // take back the mess you made / oh you're lying like you never cared / if you were a dying star / honey I was a solar flare / and he said / where are you going baby? / what are your plans? / are you gonna be alone tonight? / maybe we could go somewhere and ruin ourselves / do you wanna try? // you're so full of great ideas babe / get a cruise ship career / spend the next twenty years / watching half naked girls drinking ten dollar beers / you jump from one shipwreck to the next / oh is she stubborn like me? / is she still twenty three? / you say "how could the world be so cruel to a good man like me?" but // take back the mess you made / oh you're lying like you never cared / if you were a dying star / honey I was a solar flare / and I said / where are you going baby? / what are your plans? / did you come here on your own tonight? / maybe we could go somewhere and just talk things out / do you wanna try? / try // ah ha ha / ah ha ha // wish I could / take back the mess we made / of forever playing truth or dare / you're not lonely / just alone / hear you singing from your silver chair / but I'm singing / la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la / take it back baby / no / take back the mess you made / oh / la la la la la la //
