"My Swagger Has A First Name" lyrics

"My Swagger Has A First Name"

Failure
Give up, don't try at all anymore
Anymore
Your weakness
Manipulate no more
This is the last time
This is the last time

Write off, and away
With discerning mental love affairs
I'd rather stick with any number
Of these played-out fairy tales and
Moments of your yellow shining
Spending your time hating in hiding
Making up the reasons why
The light you seen, the public eye

When everything you try
Well it's never good enough

Oh! These friends die easy
Oh! Just disappear
Oh! Well, my best friend
I knew these lies would end up here
Oh! These friends die easy
Oh! Just disappear
Oh! Well, my best friend
I knew these lies would end up here

Your weakness
Manipulate no more
This is the last time
This is the last time

If I can tell you any and everything
Don't ask, just tell it like I should
Like I know you never could and
Moments come out of hiding
Spilling weakness, true colors shining
The dark you see, the reason why
You fail at everything you try

When everything you are
Well it's never good enough

Oh! These friends die easy
Oh! Just disappear
Oh! Well, my best friend
I knew these lies would end up here
Oh! These friends die easy
Oh! Just disappear
Oh! Well, my best friend
I knew these lies would end up here
I knew these lies would end up here

Stay gone
And I won't even say goodbye
And I won't even say goodbye
Stay gone
And I won't even say goodbye
And I won't even say goodbye

Oh! These friends die easy
Oh! Just disappear
Oh! Well, my best friend
I knew these lies would end up here
Oh! These friends die easy
Oh! Just disappear
Oh! Well, my best friend
I knew these lies would end up here
I knew these lies would end up here

[Hidden Track:]

Okay, whatever man. Craig, this is the ninth message. Nine is a special number to me, laugh all you want but it is. I just want you to know when I was at your apartment the other day I didn't ever want to leave. I felt safe there. The truth is, the honest truth, I just wanted to crawl into that big bed with you. Oh Craig, Craig I wrote you a poem. It may sound cryptic but here goes...

I once believed that it was my place
To slay dragons and save maidens in towers
But then a knight rode up
In shining armor on a white horse
And I realized it was my place
To ride beside him
Call me!

One more?
We'll give him a third choice
You ready?
In the studio...

Oh Craig. Craig, it's me again. I was just thinking, maybe we could, you know, sit on your couch and watch a football game. Or maybe we could go to a football game together. Or maybe we could go down to the beach and throw a football around. Call me!
