This song (as is the case with the entire "Chronicle" release) is written from experiences I had at the end of 2003 with a very close friend of mine.
Never met a girl quite like you
Changing everything from black to blue
Courted dozens of girls before
But they weren't even in your league
Never had a night quite like this
Dinner and a movie topped with total bliss
I was fine 'til we were all alone
But now it's getting hard to breathe
Why don't you just drive your stake right in?
I know it's not the only heart you'll win today.
Yeah, but it's there to stay.
I'm just a bit blind-sided and bruised
Disoriented, and a bit confused by this
Was that our final kiss?
We were getting along just fine
Always managed not to cross the line
'Til that night you caught me off my guard
Believe me, that is hard to do
It was just us in the parking lot
Laughing and discussing 'til our jaws were shot
On my way back home I realized
I couldn't help but fall for you
Why don't you just drive your stake right in?
I know it's not the only heart you'll win today.
Yeah, but it's there to stay.
I'm just a bit blind-sided and bruised
Disoriented, and a bit confused by this
Was that our final kiss?
How will I live through this,
Dying every minute?
Don't you have instructions?
Girls like you should have some
In this one kiss my world is lost
This new one has too high a cost
For me to even ever think of paying
God, the clock is striking one
The fireworks are done
Or are they just beginning?
Damn, the night is at an end
Will you think of me again,
Or even remember me
Come tomorrow?
Why don't you just drive your stake right in?
I know it's not the only heart you'll win today.
Yeah, but it's there to stay.
I'm just a bit blind-sided and bruised
Disoriented, and a bit confused by this
Was that our final kiss?
I guess I'm done for
