Tonight We're Gonna Give It 35%

We drank bottled water together

And talked business

I think I played the right moves

You were looking over my shoulder

As I went through the motions

Of another night

And it is was alright, because

I thought I knew who everybody was

Just by looking at them

My heart is anywhere but here

And how tired I was

From the past couple of weeks

From the past couple of years

Well it hit me all at once

On a balcony overlooking nothing

With snow falling all around

I called just to say good night

And you hadn't done anything wrong

Really, it's me not you

I can't believe how naive I was

To think things could ever be so simple

And can you live with

What you know about yourself

When you're all alone, behind closed doors

The things we never said but

We always knew were right there

It's got me on my knees in a bathroom

Praying to a god that I don't even believe in

"Dear Jesus.. are you listening?"

If this is the one chance that really matters

Don't let me fuck this up

If you had told me about all this when I was fifteen

I never would have believed it.
