I'm addicted to this song lately; "Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't" by Brand New.

I am heaven sent, don't you dare forget.
I am all you've ever wanted
What the other boys all promised
Sorry I told;
I just needed you to know.
I think in decimals and dollars.
I am the cause to all your problems
Shelter from cold; we are never alone.
Coordinate brain and mouth, then ask me what it's like to have myself so figured out?
I wish I knew.
I hope this song starts a craze.
The kind of song that ignites the airwaves.
The kind of song that makes people glad to be where they are
With whoever they're there with.
This is war.
Every line is about who I don't wanna write about anymore.
Hope you come down with something they can't diagnose;
Don't have the cure for.
Holdin' onto your grudge, oh it's so hard to have someone to love.
Keepin quiet is hard.
Cause you can't keep a secret if it never was a secret to start.
At least pretend you didn't wanna get caught.
We're concentrated, on falling apart.
But we're contenders, we're throwin' the fight.
I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe.
Oh, we're so c-c-c-c-controversial, we are entirely smooth
We admit to the truth, we are the best at what we do.
These are the words you wish you wrote down,
This is the way you wish your voice sounds.
Handsome and smart.
Oh my tongue's the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart.
And it's all from watching TV
And speeding up my breathing.
Wouldn't stop if I could.
Oh, it hurts to be this good.
Holdin' onto your grudge,
Oh it hurts to always have to be honest with the one that you love.
Oh, so let it go.
We're concentrated, on fallin apart.
We were contenders, we've thrown the fight.
I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe.
We're concentrated, on fallin apart.
We were contenders, we've thrown the fight.
I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, in us.

This is the grace that only we can bestow.
This is the price you pay for loss of control.
This is the break in the bend, this is the closest of calls.
This is the reason you're alone,
This is the rise and the fall.
