Fall Out Boy ~ Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet~ Folie a Deux

Mr. Sandman showing his beam
When he walks into the room the walls lean in to listen
Surfed out brain waves flick back and forth
Like old headlights sniffing model glue again
Head like a steel trap
Wish I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't
I don't just want to be a footnote in someone else's happiness

Does your husband know the way that
the sunshine gleams from your wedding band?
Does he know the way
Does he know the way
Of the crickets that would convince me to call it a night?

But I will never end up like him
Behind my back I already am
Keep a calendar, this way you will always know

The last time you came through
Oh darling I know what you're going through
The last time you came through
Oh darling
Oh darling
Oh darling...

Aw
Tempest in a teacup
Get unique
Peroxide princes shine like shark teeth
It's a sign (it's a sign)
It's a sign (it's a sign)
It's a sign-what if you peaked early?

Does your husband know the way that
the sunshine gleams from your wedding band?
Does he know the way
Does he know the way
Of the crickets that would convince me to call it a night?

Does he
Does he know the way I worship
Our love?
Does your husband know the way that
the sunshine gleams from your wedding band?

But I will never end up like him
Behind my back I already am
Keep a calendar, this way you will always know

The last time you came through
Oh darling I know what you're going through
The last time you came through
Oh darling
Oh darling
Oh darling...

Does your husband know?
Does your husband know?
Does your husband know?
Does he know,
does he know,
does he know? Oh oh...

But I will never end up like him
Behind my back I already am
Keep a calendar, this way you will always know

The last time you came through
Oh darling I know what you're going through
The last time you came through
Oh darling I know what you're going through

  • The Story Best Left Untitled
    I'm struggling. In every sense of the word. In every aspect of my life. It's so nerve wracking, waking everyday and wondering what's going to happen next. I feel like a time bomb sometimes, everyday, another obstacle to overcome and another piece of me being put to the test. I often wonder if I'm going to make it to

  • So Sick of Love Songs
    It's another Saturday night and I am left to be my own worst enemy. And as I post this entry, I am crying . And it's possibly because of the song I'm listening to because the singer's voice evokes this response from me. Don't get me wrong, I am in love with the voice and I appreciate their work. It just pisses me off

  • My Heart in One Hand While a Crooner Holds the Other
    I've been rather angsty the past few days. And to think it all started going down to Columbia, MO to visit my cousins who I hadn't seen in a long time. They graduated and I stayed with them for the weekend to hang out, go clubbing and just all around have some fun. Saturday night, we ran into an old friend and we a
