Capo on fret 1, Written in September 2003
This song is about drinking.
First song of the new wave, and first I wrote in my dorm room.
Lyrics
Nothing started
But it’s over
And it hurts me
Cause it’s over
I’ve gone and blown my chance again
She’ll never understand
What she puts me through
Her love is a trap
That I fell into
Now that tears won’t stop coming
What I need to do is
Break away from the emptiness
Break away from this helplessness
And feel the world alone
Alone, I am nothing
Face the fact
She wants something more than that
But wait, too late
Her bottle is now opened and I’m gone
I’ve gone and blown my chance again
My heart is beating thick
With misery
Her life is flowing free
Without sympathy
I must escape the aching part of me
And run away from the man that I once was
Run away from the lives that we’ve fucked up
And feel the world alone
Alone, I am nothing
Face the fact
She wants something more than that
But wait, too late
Her bottle is now opened and I’m gone
I’ve gone and blown my chance again
I’ve gone away
