Motion City Soundtrack - Autographs And Apologies lyrics

outline of a story-board with no idea

head first in the shallow end

I apologize if i do not care

busy hands keep swimming they don't like swallowing

to the abstract motor,

"gotta make that motor hum gotta make it run."

forward seems like forever

when "ever" is hand over hand over hand

the busy hands keeps swimming

gotta make that motor "hum"

get it over and done

so much for the autographs

so much for apologies

so much for promises

I never intended to keep

how does it all add up?

how does the story end?

I can't let go I can't pretend

very i'm so friendly very i'm so halloween

so this is what I wanted

gotta keep those channels clean and other sobering themes

I'm drowning by numbers

my halo is bent it's a fat fucking lie

and so the abstract motor gives in

it says, "at least I tried." at least I tried.
