I Confess

Lyrics

I confess that we're in a mess Used to effervesce, now things seem so grey Afraid that I have to say Things were special when we thought it would end Being bored, something we abhorred And we could afford to show off our scene We've forgotten what it means Any more cheap thrills will just make us ill So we sit in some flat (Uh-huh) Fight about this and that (Uh-huh) A tedious tragedy Even walks in the park (Uh-huh) We don't do after dark (Uh-huh) A waste of teenage dreams If we started over again Back to games in the hay, playing on ice skates, fast bends Could we make ourselves care again? Or are we stuck to giving in Living on, living the end Do-do-da-da-do Da-do da-do Da-do-da-da-do Da-do-da-do In a way, maybe it's okay If we treat today like a memory Carry on like it's all a dream Never use our brains or we'll suss the game Clouded eyes, what a compromise As for living lies and castaways And nine million wasted days If we fool ourselves, then there's no one else So we sit in some flat (Uh-huh) Laugh about this and that (Uh-huh) In one way it makes sense And our walks in the park (Uh-huh) Grow so sorry and dull (Uh-huh) A terrible pretense If we started over again Back to games in the hay, playing on ice skates, fast bends Could we make ourselves care again? Or are we stuck to giving in Living on, living the end Da-do-da-da-do Da-do da-do Da-do-da-da-do Da-do-da-do [Outro] But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But in- But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside But inside
