Mess Lyrics

[00:07.44] If I could give this all back
[00:10.22] I would be home in the morning
[00:13.17] I'd wake up in a cold sweat
[00:15.41] Take a flight back to the city I was born in
[00:18.86] And I would wipe myself clean
[00:21.78] Of what I knew was unimportant
[00:24.83] I'd want typical things
[00:27.09] I'd try to fit back into all my old clothing
[00:30.55] And I would prove myself wrong
[00:32.66] That all along the problem was me
[00:36.11] With all my bitterness gone
[00:38.58] Happy, I'd be
[00:41.67] I'll move back home forever
[00:44.49] I'll feed the dogs
[00:46.31] And I'll put all my pieces back together
[00:50.40] Where they belong
[00:52.12] And I'll say
[00:53.49] "I'm a mess
[00:54.76] I'm a mess, oh god
[00:56.52] I'm a mess"
[00:59.03] And I'll take 89 to Boston
[01:02.15] See my love
[01:03.80] And I'll help her
[01:05.22] Set up her new apartment
[01:08.24] And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[01:10.80] "Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess
[01:13.34] Good god, you're a mess
[01:16.52] Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess
[01:19.17] Good god"
[01:23.31] So I paid off my debts
[01:26.23] But I found the world boring
[01:29.22] So I called my old friends
[01:31.43] But they only ever ask me how tour is
[01:34.91] And there's still weight on my back
[01:37.74] I just try to ignore it
[01:40.78] I guess the stage was my mask
[01:43.10] I forgot the way I looked before I wore it
[01:46.78] And I would prove myself wrong
[01:48.68] That all along the problem was me
[01:52.45] With all my bitterness gone
[01:54.54] Happy, I'll be
[01:57.69] I'll move back home forever
[02:00.64] I'll feed the dogs
[02:02.31] And I'll put all my pieces back together
[02:06.49] Where they belong
[02:08.25] And I'll say
[02:09.32] "I'm a mess
[02:10.82] I'm a mess, oh god
[02:12.44] I'm a mess"
[02:15.28] And I'll take 89 to Boston
[02:18.24] See my love
[02:19.88] And I'll help her
[02:21.15] Set up her new apartment
[02:24.04] And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[02:26.79] "Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess
[02:29.39] Good god, you're a mess
[02:32.25] Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess"
[02:35.35] Life's not what I had hoped
[02:38.92] Now I'll find comfort in the cold
[02:44.99]
[02:47.63] I'll move back home forever
[02:50.56] I'll feed the dogs
[02:52.15] And I'll put all my pieces back together
[02:56.15] Where they belong and I'll say
[02:58.80] "I'm a mess
[03:00.36] I'm a mess, oh god
[03:02.10] I'm a mess"
[03:04.79] And I'll take 89 to Boston
[03:07.86] See my love
[03:09.48] And I'll help her
[03:11.07] Set up her new apartment
[03:13.92] And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[03:16.32] "Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess
[03:19.07] Good god, you're a mess
[03:22.06] Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess
[03:24.94] Good god"
[03:25.50]
