lyrics
You know a lot about politics
& I know a lot about nothing
But you had a teacher
& I guess that I'm just good at blushing
Was any of it ever true?
Or was I just an easy person to apologize to?
You talked until your face turned blue
I think I was just your substitute
& I am frightened
About who will come next
What will they think about me
I have an opinion on every ex
Well I can't wait to move out
Onto the streets or Noonan's couch
That's my only way out
It was always
It was always your house
Remember the day we went to the river?
You convinced me to bring my guitar
I liked you enough to look like a douchebag
Now I like you enough but not where you are
'Cause you are above me
And you always will be
You stay there just for fun
'Cause you, you, you...
Remember the day we went to the graveyard?
I got drunk & fell off of my bike
I think that was the first day that I loved you
& About the only one I liked
It's hot and I hate everything
I'm always hurt or in my head
But the weather is not changing
& We, we are all dead
but that's just immature, it's just plain juvenile
at least I got a direction, not just on the run
but you were waitin' to say it for awhile
'cause you, you, you...
I've been a whiny little bitch
Since the day you left
& I've had cigarette smoke
coming in and out of every breath
I cannot believe
That I'm still singing this song
From the way I've been complaining you would think
that something's actually wrong
(and that'll come later)
Let's call it a night
Maybe call it a year
At least call it an end to what
Nobody wanted to hear
'Cause there is nothing profound
In anything I've spoken
& there is nothing unique in
getting your heart broken
I'm sorry
If you ever hear this
& I know a lot about nothing
But you had a teacher
& I guess that I'm just good at blushing
Was any of it ever true?
Or was I just an easy person to apologize to?
You talked until your face turned blue
I think I was just your substitute
& I am frightened
About who will come next
What will they think about me
I have an opinion on every ex
Well I can't wait to move out
Onto the streets or Noonan's couch
That's my only way out
It was always
It was always your house
Remember the day we went to the river?
You convinced me to bring my guitar
I liked you enough to look like a douchebag
Now I like you enough but not where you are
'Cause you are above me
And you always will be
You stay there just for fun
'Cause you, you, you...
Remember the day we went to the graveyard?
I got drunk & fell off of my bike
I think that was the first day that I loved you
& About the only one I liked
It's hot and I hate everything

There's something with the end of this song that makes me feel a certain indescribable way.
