Death Cab For Cutie - Bad Reputation lyrics

I know I got a bad reputation

And it isn't just talk talk talk

If I could only give you everything

You know I haven't got

I couldn't have one conversation

If it wasn't for the lies lies lies

And still I wanna tell you everything

Til I close my eyes

Suddenly I'm on the street

Seven years disappeared

Below my feet

Been breakin down

Do you want me now? Do you want me now?

Suddenly I'm down in Harold Square

Looking in a crowd

Your face is everywhere

Been turning round

Do you want me now? Do you want me now?

Don't try to be an inspiration

You're just wasting your time time time

You know I'm 'bout the best I'll ever be

I see it in your eyes

I know I got a bad reputation

And it isn't just talk talk talk

If I could only give you everything

You know I haven't got

I couldn't have one conversation

If it wasn't for the lies lies lies

And still I wanna tell you everything

Til I close my eyes

Suddenly I'm on the street

Seven years disappeared

Below my feet

Been breakin down

Do you want me now? Do you want me now?

Suddenly I'm in another place

Looking in the crowd

I think I see your face

Been turning round

Do you want me now? Do you want me now?

Do you want me now? Do you want me now? (2x)

Don't you think I've heard the talk

Nobody's gonna tell me who to look

Been breakin' down

Do you want me now? Do you want me now?

Suddenly I'm in Hello Square

Looking in a crowd

Your face is everywhere

Been turning round

Do you want me now? Do you want me now?

Do you want me now? Do you want me now? (2x)

But I'm just breakin' down down down down down

Been breakin' down down down down down (3x)
