As We Speak

It's nice to meet
Someone with a future as fucked up as mine
So I'm unpredictable
Is this some fucking sign of the times?
I take pride
In what I do and I do it well
Call me easy-going
Well at least I have a finished story to tell

'Cause tomorrow I just might be
Another face on your TV
Being arrested for telephone fraud
Or beating someone to death with my guitar
But I know I will go far

I know I will go far enough to tell you
That I love you, but I know I'm stupid
Just because I run right back to you
I got your letters yesterday
But I don't have a thing to say
So I'll nail 'em to my wall
And just pretend they'll go away

I don't wanna love you but
It's something that I love to do
So I'll say this one last thing and then I'm
Gone away for good
Was I misunderstood?
I guess that it's too late to save you now
