Pretty Angry
I wish I drank tequila
I wish I stayed up late
But lately, when the Sandman comes
I know I just can't wait
Well, maybe I can wait
Well we packed up all your boxes
Yeah it's all been hauled away
I never stare at walls so bare
'Cause something always stays
'Cause something always stays
I want to shout from my guitar
Come out come out wherever you are
This isn't funny, don't fool around
[and you know] it never dies
And I found your keys behind your chair
I still can see you sitting there
This isn't funny, don't fool around
You let me go,
You let me down.
[Chorus]
And I guess I'm still pretty angry
And I don't want to be
I don't know which was the bigger waste of time
Missing you or wishing, instead, it was me.
I wish I walked on water
Pulling rabbits from our sleeves
Changing cards and saving everyone
I wish that I believed
Oh I wish that I believed.
[????] Well I've endured the burning flame
That I could make some other choices
Oh, I wish I were[n't] afraid
Of the decisions that you've made.
Heck, I could give you what you need
So Oli Oli Oxen free
The game is up and I give in
So show yourself so you can win
Come claim your prize and I don't care
I still can see you standing there
[a bunch of words that John forgot but kept ending the phrases with the words dies] You cut me off in mid-reply.
[Chorus]
[Well the wind, the urge to race]
I still can see it on your face
Thought I could match you stride for stride
But I was on the other side
And hanging on to the safety rail
With knuckles white, complexion pale
[Though I won't move] but only crash
I wasn't built to move that fast
Have you enjoyed your love to drive?
And I'm destroyed
'Cause I'm alive.
I'm alive.
[Chorus]
And I guess I'm still pretty angry
And I don't want to be
I don't know which was the bigger waste of time
Missing you.....
