Tim de Vil - After the Fact lyrics

We always said things would be different-- "Once we get out of college..." "Once we get our own apartment..." We could both get grown up haircuts And play sudoku And spend our Sundays running errands There's putting the cart before the horse Then there's hanging reins on a horse that was stillborn There's a ray of hope But that was a life raft around the throat of a corpse And an armchair knowledge of freshman lit Doesn't give you the right to use that down your nose tone I've been waiting for Godot since the day I was born Guess you know the best But, you forget That you forget the rest We could march in staggered step Holding hands through the darkness of our contempt But, within the context of what you've had to offer so far I'd say it's for the better if it were separate And if your taking bets on who can last the longest I can count my losses 'Cause you're f**ing flawless Maybe taking the heat for a fifth I didn't drink Isn't a covenant wherever you come from, but Sometimes I'm on a one way bridge With a cop on my a** after I missed my exit Trying to flip a b**h without rousing suspicion You gave me directions I thought you had this And before you know it, we'll become nostalgic And the memories will be left hidden Inside of a shoebox in the closet On a broken ca**ette tape, reduced to greatest hits And I'm stuck with the bits that make me sick Can you tend a garden without your bullsh**? Can you not commit? Can you not come in? Can you not come in?
