The Classic Crime

You and Me Both



Lyrics

The guardrail is tempting me
Standing like a sentry to the left of me
Its guarding adventure that certain to be life threatening
Life threatening

I need a tragedy to wake me
From perpetual dreaming
The proverbial "pinch me"
I'm so sick...of sleeping
I'm so sick of sleeeeeeeeping

And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone
(oh whoa oh oh oh)
It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone)
I think I need a new story
One where I take on the world
The one I'm living is boring
It's killing you and me both

The car crash in front of me
Pulls me back from deep and desperate fantasy
Snaps me wide awake to see the horrible scene
Whats happening
Whats....happening?

Is this the tragedy I asked for?
Is this blood on my hands a consequence of my own war?
I'm so sick...of sleeping
I'm so sick...of needing more

And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone
(oh whoa oh oh oh)
It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone)
I think I need a new story
One where I take on the world
The one I'm living is boring
It's killing you and me both

And you watch every time
As I give myself to death and neglect life
And I blindly desert the plot line you deserve

And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone
(oh whoa oh oh oh)
It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone)
I think I need a new story
One where I take on the world
The one I'm living is boring
It's killing you and me both
It's killing you and me both
It's killing you and me both!
