go on just say it
you need me like a bad habit
one that leaves you defenseless
dependent
and alone
go on just say it
(are you afraid to say what you want to?)
you need me like a bad habit
(tell me you want to...)
one that leaves you defenseless,
(are you afraid to say what you want to?)
dependant
and alone
(tell me you want to...)

well i hold my tongue
use it to assess the damage from way back when it mattered
(and nothing seems important anymore, we're)
just protecting ourselves from ourselves

(and i don't think i'll ever come back down)
well i don't think i'll ever come back down
(i don't think i'll ever come back down)
i don't think i'll ever come back down
(i don't think i'll ever come back down)
i don't think i'll ever come back
(i don't think i'll ever come back)

are you ashamed to say what you want to?
tell me you want to
are you ashamed to say what you want to?
tell me you want to
go on just say it
(are you ashamed to say what you want to?)
go on just say it
(tell me you want to)
go on just say it
(are you ashamed to say what you want to?)
go on just say it
(tell me you want to)

i'm making the difference
it just seems pointless
all the obvious lines got out of focus
why can't you just be happy?
why can't you just be happy?

(and i don't think i'll ever come back down)
i don't think i'll ever come back down...
(i don't think i'll ever come back down)
i don't think i'll ever come back down...
(i don't think i'll ever come back down)
i don't think i'll ever come back
(i don't think i'll ever come back)

(just come back… )
go on just say it
go on just say it
well I’ll just say it
i’ll just say it
i need you defenseless, dependent and alone
(just come back… )
she says live up to your first impression
well my best side was your worst invention
and can't you live without the attention
and can't you live without the attention
(just come back… )
she says live up to your first impression
well my best side was your worst invention
can't you live without the attention
well can't you live without the attention

she says live up to your first impression (go on just say it),
well my best side was your worst invention (go on just say it,
well can't you live without the attention (i need you defenseless, dependant),
well can’t you live without the attention (alone).
she says live up to your first impression (i'll just say it),
well my best side was your worst invention (i'll just say it),
why cant you live without the attention (i need you defenseless, dependant),
why can’t you live without the attention (alone),
why can’t you live (defenseless, dependant),
why cant you live (defenseless, dependant),
why can’t you live without…live without (defenseless, dependent, defenseless, dependant),
why can’t you live (defenseless, dependant),
why can’t you live (defenseless, dependant),
why can’t you live without…live without (defenseless, dependant, defenseless, dependant).

the only parts i really like about this song are Fred's backing vocals. a lot of people complain, but i love the way Adam & Fred intertwine vocals.

I really like this song. Probably my second favorite. I really like the intro. The guitar sounds really good and how Adam and Fred switch vocals again went really good with the guitar in teh song

Good song to put in the CD player of your car and drive listening to late at night. The first half of the song is not very enjoyable, but the second half is so easy to just lay down and relax to. Terrific ending.
