Alkaline Trio - Burned Is The House lyrics

It's like we both have just arrived here Like we've just stepped off a plane in a new town and the sun was out. I was talking, you would point your ear at me like I was making some sweet sound you said, "make it loud" But we can never come back here again we can only hope... to forget. Walked through a cemetery archway into a wood that hung so happily alone but the words were all wrong. You traded all my ill affections for directions to a party across town. You bring the house down. But we can never go back there again we can only hope. So... Burned is the house. Gone is the street. Here is the same disappointing retreat. And I need it like hell if I'd lie to myself to think I could live that life over again. Where the cuts were like guilt and the taste for your eyes I say, "we're up when I couldn't just say goodnight" If you cry me a river you can baptize me in I say, "I guess that's it, now I've f**ing seen everything" Woah's You were the first real choice I would make, but we all make mistakes, so... Jumped overboard because the water's always greener when the sun shines on the sea Would you drown for me? It's just as deep as you can make it you tread water when you could stand on your knees but don't pray to me. Cause when the lamp ray's taken all it can it will keep you dead. But but, Burned is the house. Gone is the street. Here is the same disappointing retreat. And I need it like hell if I'd lie to myself to think I could live that life over again. Where the cuts were like guilt and the taste for your eyes I say, "we're up when I couldn't just say goodnight" If you cry me a river you can baptize me in I say, "I guess that's it, yeah, I've f**ing seen everything now" Woah's You were the first real choice I would make, You were the only one that I would take Now you'll take til I go. You were the first real choice I would make, but we all make mistakes, so...
