Taking Back Sunday Taking Back Sunday Lyrics
1.El Paso

Cradle the sound, caller speak through your teeth
I was up and away
I've never known what to think
What I wanted to know, where did god sway
And if the silence was gold, gold, gold
When you got your way

You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get
My eyes got sore, oh, those perverts are sick
I have the truth on my tongue
Hadn't know until when
What I wanted to know, whether god was away
Cause I was there as you, you play
And you, you fools, you look all the same
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never get what you
You all look the same
You'll never give what you get
You'll never give what you get
You all look the same
You'll never get what you want
You'll never want what you get
You all look the same
Just do your best to forget
Just do your best to forget
You all look the same

You got your way, you got away
When god, he was away
You got your way, you got away
When god, he was away
You got your way, you got away
When god, he was away
You got your way, you got away
When god, he was away
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
You'll never give what you get, no
Just do your best to forget
Just do your best to forget
Do your best to forget


2.Faith (When I Let You Down)

You might lose your faith in science.
You might lose faith in wealth.
You might lose your faith in Jesus,
or lose faith in yourself.

But, when I let you down,
look past your doubt.
Just, please, please,
don't lose your faith in me.

You could lose your faith in music,
or lose your faith in your friends.
You could lose your faith in freedom,
feel trapped in your own skin.
Oh, but I'll be right there beside you,
(I'll be right there beside you)
When the walls are cavin' in
(I swear oh I'm not going anywhere)
But when I let you down
Look past your doubt
Just please (please)
Don't lose your faith in me
Please (please)
Don't lose your faith in me

Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
I'm not going anywhere
Oh-oh-oh
I'm not going anywhere
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
I'm not going anywhere, anywhere
But when I let you down
Look past your doubt
Just please (please)
Don't lose your faith in me
Please (please)
Don't lose your faith in me
(I'm not going anywhere)


3.Best Places To Be A Mom

I thought a lot about the morning after
And there's some things I need to get off of my chest
Forget the preconceptions
We both surely have
Like what if the grass is always greener?
Or today should taste much sweeter?
I don't wanna talk (I don't wanna talk)
I don't wanna talk (I don't wanna talk)
Peel back your skin
Invite me in
Am I just like the rest of them? (Rest of them)
The sum of my father and all his sins?
(I didn't need an answer when)
You said it all, saying nothing at all
You said it all, saying nothing at all

And I see you so much clearer
Through the smoke and past the mirrors
Past the bright brutality of the people we have been
But you didn't need that explanation
No, I had no expectations
I don't wanna talk(I don't wanna talk)
I don't wanna talk(I don't wanna talk)
Peel back your skin
Invite me in
Am I just like the rest of them? (Rest of them)
The sum of my father and all his sins?
(I didn't need an answer when)
You said it all, saying nothing at all
You said it all

(Hey!)

The waiting, fluorescent suspense
The hope at the foot of my bed
I don't wanna talk
Don't wanna talk
Don't wanna talk
Don't wanna talk
I just wanna taste you

Am I just like the rest of them? (Rest of them)
The sum of my father and all his sins?
(I didn't need an answer when)
You said it all, saying nothing at all
You said it all, saying nothing at all
You said it all(said it all)
Saying nothing at all(saying nothing at all)
You said it all, saying nothing at all


4.Sad Saviour

Skin against skin covering bone
On the body you're in, is aggressively slim
Yeah, you earned the clothes you put on it
Cover up where you've been
Leave those scars at home
Let them slide down the length
Of your spine, cross your knees
And down to your feet
They slow our momentum each time
You're reminded they're there...
You don't have to pretend to
be an orphan anymore
You don't have to pretend to
be important anymore
That brutal youth, exhumed and removed
Entombed in a box that's cached 'cross your room
It slows our momentum each time
I'm reminded that it's there
Your anxious tongue spills cautious words
Yeah, it's gotten so used to being misunderstood
You do your best to control it
Remind yourself that you care...
You don't have to pretend to
be an orphan anymore
You don't have to pretend to
be important anymore
Hey, sad savior
You don't have to pretend to
be an orphan anymore

'Oh, never, not ever again!'
Is what you swore the last time this happened
'Never, not ever again!'
Are you gonna settle for those bastards?
'Never not ever again!'
'Never! (Not ever, no!) No, never! (Not ever, no!)'
'Never not ever again!'
Is what you swore...
You don't have to pretend to
be an orphan anymore
You don't have to pretend to
be important anymore
Anymore!
So hey, sad savior
You don't have to pretend to be an orphan
Not an orphan anymore


5.Who Are You Anyway

Oh, when the firing finally stops
And our weapons start to drop
Will we like what we see?
Will we like what we see?
Will I be completely confident
That it was worth the time I spent?
Will I like what I see?
Will I like what I see?
I still have all these questions
(You're all talk; no follow through)
When I ask you for an answer
That's when you say you'll have one soon.
Who are you to think,
to think you're worth the wait?
(Well are you worth the wait?)
Are you worth wait? Is it worth it?
Who are you to think,
to think you're worth the wait?
(Are you worth the wait?)
Are you worth wait? Is it worth it?
Is it? Is it?
Is it? Is it worth it?
Is it? Is it?
Is it?
Is it when the smoke does finally clear
We find our problems disappear?
Will we like what we see?
Will we like what we see?
When I assess the damage done
Would I be smart enough to run
If I don't like what I see?
I don't like what I see
I still have all these questions
(You're all talk; no follow through)
When I ask you for an answer
That's when you say you'll have one soon.
Who are you to think,
to think you're worth the wait?
(Well are you worth the wait?)
Are you worth wait? Is it worth it?
Who are you to think,
to think you're worth the wait?
(Are you worth the wait?)
Are you worth wait? Is it worth it?

Just say you like what you see
Say you like what you see
Don't you like what you see?
Is it? Is it?
Is it? Is it worth it?
Is it? Is it?
Is it? Is it worth i?
Well are you worth the wait?
Are you worth the wait?

Who are you to think,
to think you're worth the wait?
(Well are you worth the wait?)
Are you worth wait? Is it worth it?
Yeah, who are you to think,
to think you're worth the wait?
(Are you worth the wait?)
Are you worth wait? Is it worth it?
Is it? Is it?
Is it? Is it worth it?
Is it? Is it?
Is it? Is it worth i?
Are you worth the wait?
Are you worth the wait?
Is it worth it?
The wait:
Is it worth it?
The wait:
Is it worth it?
Oh!
Is it? Is it?
Is it? Is it worth it?
Are you worth the wait?
Are you worth the wait?


6.Money (Let It Go)

Get gone
Before it gets to me
Keep on
Keep on keeping away
I called in her disinterest
You catalog the rooms
This is all your fault
Doesn't matter what you're doing
All this rests on you
On you
(Well you know)
You know you had it coming
You got what you had coming
Yeah, you made that pig squeal

Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Come on, have a laugh
She wants, she wants it all
Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Come on let go, let go, let go
Just let it go, go, go

Get gone
Keep on keeping away
Get paid
Sit around and wait
Oh all that time you've wasted
Complain, complain, complain
Well grab another bag
Oh she knew what she was doing
To everything you say
Yeah you, you knew you had it coming
You got what you had coming
Yeah you, made that pig squeal

Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Come on, have a laugh
She wants, she wants it all
Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Saying let go, let go, let go
That brilliant animal
Let go, let go, let go
Just let it go, go, go

She walks in and out the bed
With those long, long legs
Everything you say
You lost along, lost along the way

Get gone
Yeah you keep on keeping away
Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Come on, have a laugh
She wants, she wants it all
Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Come on let go, let go, let go
Just let it go, go, go
Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Come on, have a laugh
She wants, she wants it all
Have a laugh
She wants all that money
Saying let go, let go, let go
That brilliant animal
Let go, let go, let go
Just let it go, go, go


7.This Is All Now

So now I am owed this
One self-indulgent tirade
A hollow attempt to
To sell my point of view
Yeah, I know what's rotting
beneath your best intentions
At the heart of your convictions
Sits a broken man that needs to understand
I am owed this now
I am owed this now
I am owed this now
This is all I ever asked of you
The only thing you couldn't do
Tell me the whole truth
You don't know yourself (I! Will!)
How could I know you? (Not! Be moved!)
I will not be moved
until you tell me the whole truth.

I know you mean well
with your ancient code of ethics
You lead by example
Could you imagine Christ hitting a child?
You live in a shelter
built from your own truth
There's so many things you
(You don't want)
You don't want me
You don't want me to know
I am owed this now
I am owed this now
I am owed this now
This is all I ever asked of you
The only thing you couldn't do
Tell me the whole truth
You don't know yourself (I! Will!)
How could I know you? (Not! Be moved!)
I will not be moved
until you tell me the whole truth.
Oh, next time you're standing on that stage
(You're lying to yourself,
you're lying to yourself!)
And selling your cold hollow faith
(You're still a liar to me,
you're still a liar to me!)
Oh, next time you're standing on that stage
(Repent, repent!)
Selling your cold hollow faith
Remember

This is all I ever asked from you
The only thing you couldn't do
Tell me the whole truth

You don't know yourself (I! Will!)
How could I know you (Not! Be moved!)
I will not be moved!
Until you tell me the whole truth
(Oh, the only thing I asked from you!)
The only thing I asked from you
The only thing you couldn't do
Tell me the whole truth
I will not be moved (I! Will! Not!)
I will not be moved
(I am owed this now!)
I am owed this now
(I am owed this now!)
Tell me the whole truth


8.It Doesn't Feel A Thing Like Falling

You can't, you can't forgive yourself
I don't blame you
There's times I can't tell who you are anymore
Or if I ever even knew you
What exactly do you want to hear?
Yeah, what exactly are we doing here?
Your indecision makes a slow incision
Cuts what little we have left
Though it doesn't feel a thing like falling
It doesn't feel a thing like falling
I can't feel a thing as I watch you
Move in and out the door

You can't, you can't forgive yourself
I don't blame you
It's times when I can't see a way out
or over this hole you dug us into
What exactly do you want from me?
Who exactly did you want me to be?
Your indecision, all this endless friction
Burns what little we have left
Though it doesn't feel a thing like falling
It doesn't feel a thing like falling
I can feel a thing as I watch you
Move in and out the door
Now it doesn't feel a thing like falling
It doesn't feel a thing like falling
I can't feel a thing as I watch you
Move in and out the door

Oh there is this part of me out there
And over the television hum
I appreciate the details
Yeah, that's where God goes to get loved
I want to fight back in
To how we used to represent
Wash my filthy hands
Wash my filthy hands

Like fall
Like fall
Like fall
Like fall
Like fall
It doesn't feel a thing like falling
It doesn't feel a thing like falling
I can't feel a thing as I watch you
Move in and out the door
It doesn't feel a thing like falling
(falling, falling)
I can't feel a thing as I watch you
Move in and out the door

Like fall
Like fall


9.Since You're Gone

Since you're gone
I don't go out
Lie in the house
Yeah and since you're gone
The days and nights are long.

Oh this is nothing like I've pictured
Forgot what it was like to miss you.
There's no one to take for granted
Now you're gone.

I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Come back
Come back
Oh I don't know what I'm supposed to do with myself
Come back
Come back
Come back

Since you're gone
I like the house
I keep the curtains closed.
And since you're gone
I don't do much of anything at all.
Oh this is nothing like I've pictured
Forgot what it was like to miss you.
There's no one to take for granted
Now you're gone.

I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Come back
Come back
Oh I don't know what I'm supposed to do with myself
Come back
Come back

Oh no, I've forgotten what it's like to miss you.
Oh, oh no, I didn't know (I didn't know)
This will be nothing like I pictured.
Oh, oh no, I've forgotten what it's like to miss you.
Oh, oh no, oh, oh no.

I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Come back
Come back
Oh I don't know what I'm supposed to do with myself
Come back
Come back
Come back
Come back
Why can't I learn to?
Why can't I let you?
Why can't I let you, let you go?
Come back


10.You Got Me

I was there when you were lonely
I was there when you were bored
I was there when you were feeling scared
And you were not sure what for
I was there when you found out
And you were madder than hell
You were scared, I was scared, we were scared
But I did not let that show
Cause you got me if you want me
(Hey!)
You got me
It's right where I should be

I was there when you were worried
I was there when you were sick
I was there when you were positive
This was not happening
I was there with your father
Oh, he was madder than hell
He was scared, you were scared, I was scared
But I did no let that show
Cause you got me if you want me
(Oh!)
You got me
It's right where I should be
You got me if you want me
(Oh!)
You got me
It's right where I should be
You said 'It's my body boy, not your body'
'Look here, for Christ's sake... we're just kids!'
You said you didn't want to do it alone
Well who's to say you'll have to do it alone?

I was there when you were lonely
I was then when you were bored
I was there when you were feeling scared
And you were not sure what for

You got me if you want me
(Oh!)
You got me
It's right where I should be
You got me if you want me
(Oh!)
You got me
It's right where I should be
I was there when you were lonely
I was there when you were b-b-bored
I was there when you were feeling scared
And you were not sure what for
I was there when you found out
Oh, you were madder than hell
I was scared, you were scared, we were scared
But I did not let that show


11.Call Me In The Morning

Well, I don't know where you're going
But I know where you've been
I've been tracing all your footsteps
I've been counting up your sins
A ticking bomb, a false alarm, a wrecking ball...
You left before I had the chance to say:
'Just call me in the morning.'
Call me when you're home
I know what you've been through, don't let go
Don't let go...

Well you reached into my mouth
Pulled out a single bloody tooth
I've never shown that to anyone
Yeah, no one knows but you
A ticking bomb, a false alarm, a wrecking ball...
I left before you had the chance to say:
'Just call me in the morning.'
Call me when you're home
I know what you've been through, don't let go
Honey, don't let go
Just call me in the morning
Call me when you're home
I know what you've been through
Don't let go

Oh!
You never knew that it would take so long
(You never knew that it would take so...)
To understand you're right where you belong.

I don't know where we're going
But I know where we've been
We've been hiding from each other
we've been hiding from our sins

Call me in the morning
Call me when you're home
I know what you've been through
Don't let go
Call me in the morning
Call me when you're home
I know what you've been through
Don't let go
(Don't let go)
Don't know where we're going!
(Don't let go)
But I know where we've been!
(Don't let go)
We've been hiding from each other!
(Don't let go)
We've been hiding from our sins!

Call me when you're home...
I know what you've been through...
Don't let go...
