As We Speak

It's good to meet
Someone with a future as fucked up as mine.
So, I'm unpredictable,
Is this some fucking sign of the times?
I take pride
In what I do, and I do it well.
Call me easy-going
But at least I have a finished story to tell.
'Cause tomorrow I just might be
Another face on your T.V.
Being arrested for telephone fraud
Or beating someone to death with my guitar!
But I know I will go far, I know I will go

Far enough to tell you that I love you
But I know I'm stupid
Just because I run right back to you.
I got your letters yesterday
But I don't have a thing to say,
So I'll nail 'em to my wall
And just pretend they'll go away!

I don't want to love you,
But it's something that I love to do.
So I'll say this one last thing and then I'm
Gone away for good
Was I misunderstood?
I guess that it's too late to save you now!
