lyrics

Hey, is that a time bomb ticking in your head?
'Cause if it blows everybody knows that I'll be dead
I looked around inside your mind and found a mess
I don't wanna hang around to see what happens next

I guess I've finally figured out what makes you tick
It just so happens that's the thing that makes me sick

Remember the first time that I laid eyes on you?
Wasn't the right thing but what else could I do?
Another problem - I guess it's all on me
All of these bad times ain't where I wanna be

Hey, is that a landmine buried in your heart?
I should have known that I was screwed right from the start
I'm sure you thought that you were being cute and clever
Now I hope I see you on the other side of never

I had no secrets - I had nothing up my sleeve
Now when I think about it - I was so naive

Remember the first time that I laid eyes on you?
Wasn't the right thing but what else could I do?
Remember the last thing that you said to me?
Don't dive in - the water's yellow
I'm not so sure that you were straight with me
