Taking Back Sunday
"I Am Fred Astaire"


I've come to the assumption that I'm gonna be the one thats leaving you tonight,
tonight...
well I've flicked every switch that I could find on my way out just to upset you
more (just to keep you busy)
Just to make you angry (just because you were right)
Just because you were...
On side streets in heaven,
Lets get this out and on the table...
Fast forward to say four o' clock,
I'm keeping time, I'm holdin', we're always holdin', (always holdin)
We're always holdin, holding out...
And thats what got us here in the first place
We should have never come here alone (we should have never bothered at all)
Bothered at all...

Scream older and more to scale
Filled with resentment
We got it, we got it (I'm not thinkin happier...)
Older and more to scale, filled with resentment
We got it, we got it (I'm not thinkin happier, no, I'm not thinking happier, not
since...)

well...five o' clock the floor caught fire with footsteps (my footsteps)
And spread like a disease to the door (I'm stumblin through it but I hear it)
I hear its good to stick with you
(and you know a whole lot of this, it all could have been avoided when you were
courtside for this nightmare)
Well since then I got myself come and listen...

Scream older and more to scale, filled with resentment
We got it, we got it (I'm not thinkin happier...) older and more to scale,
filled with resentment
We got it, we got it (I'm not thinkin happier, no, im not thinking happier, not
since...)

well, we used to get so much more (I used to, I used to too...)
