lyrics

reptile

sometimes the most stupid thing you can do
you do it
and sometimes you trash what matters most to you
i blew it
i almost blew it

sometimes you can’t shake something from your head
forget it
and sometimes it leaves and loses you instead
you let it

i never thought that i’d turn out to be the kind to break your heart
i never thought that you would come along this far
i didn’t think of you
i didn’t think it through
i never thought but somehow thought i knew
that i might find my way to where you are

sometimes your friends all give the same advice
forget her
and sometimes you probably think i’m less than nice
you better

but sometimes i know how selfish i can be
and i don’t fight it
and sometimes you help me see what i might be
and sometimes i buy it

you could take a patch of dirt and grow something with hope
i could take this noose off and then throw away the rope
you have been a saint and i have been a reptile
you have been a platform and i’ve been a turnstile
guess it’s time for me to turn awhile

i never thought that i’d turn out to be the kind to break your heart
i never thought that you would come along this far
i didn’t think of you
i didn’t think it through
i never thought but somehow
i thought i’d find my way to where you are
