The Movielife The Movielife Has A Gambling Problem Lyrics
1.Walking On Glass

Pretending to remember our last December, and everything it was.
Hoping to fix the broken, stood by the fireplace. The flames lit
up my face.

And everything I said, (walking on glass)
I practiced in my head.
And all that I could do, (walking on glass)
Was recite my lines to you.

Pretending to recall the way it was last Fall, for lack of
better days.
I think this time of year, you see everything too clear, but
still can't understand a thing.

And everything I said, (walking on glass)
I practiced in my head.
And all that I could do, (walking on glass)
Was recite my lines to you.

I can't forget a word you said, and everything it meant.
Instead of you, I fear myself. Guess all that I can do,
Is take back everything that I'd given to you.

Pretending to remember our last December, and everything it was.
Hoping to fix the broken, stood by the fireplace. The flames lit
up my face.

And everything I said, (walking on glass)
I practiced in my head.
And all that I could do, (walking on glass)
Was recite my lines to you.

I can't forget a word you said, and everything it meant.
Instead of you, I fear myself. It's all that I can do.

'Cause you're uncomfortable with me.
Yeah you're uncomfortable with me. (Just answer the question)
Why can't I just understand what's inside you?
Is it just guts and black stuff? (I'll find out soon)
'Cause anything that you do or say cannot compare to the pain
that I felt,
The day that you said that we'd go our separate ways.


2.Hand Grenade

And you don't talk to anyone. And you won't look at anyone but
her.
And I don't think she's listening. I doubt she remembers your
name.

And you say, when will she notice me? And you feel like you're
gonna break.
And you say, when will she notice me? And it feels like a hand
grenade.

Man I'll never understand, everyone's living in the past.
Instead of forgetting her, you're always kissing her ass.

And you say, when will she notice me? And you feel like you're
gonna break.
And you say, when will she notice me? And it feels like a hand
grenade.

I know that there's not much to say, so I'll look stupid anyway.

And you don't talk to anyone. And you won't look at anyone but
her.
And I don't think she's listening, but you still play that game.
But I think the best way of moving on is to attack,
'Cause she's just a hand grenade, so pull out the pin and throw
it back.

And you say, when will she notice me? And you feel like you're
gonna break.
And you say, when will she notice me? And it feels like a hand
grenade.
Like a hand grenade.

I know that there's not much to say, so I'll look stupid anyway.

Like a hand grenade, like a hand grenade, a hand grenade.


3.Up To Me

You did it before and you'll do it again, wasting all the time I
spent.
You cut off your nose to spite your face, and everything's such
a daze,
'Cause you're not focused and I know, I know that my feelings
will show.
Wish it went back to the way it was, but I know that it can't
be.
I'm running on empty. I'm running on empty. Remember what it
meant to me.

It's up to me. I realize now, I guess it's up to me.
And I'll win somehow, I guess it's up to...

And you're absent, and I know it, and it's time to let me show
it.
I just wish you were the same. I guess it's up to me, and I
know. (Let's go!)

Changing faces and fading fast, the way that you always have.
The peace of mind that felt like home, is battered and broken
and old.
And sometimes things they pass you by, and that's why I'm
wondering why.
The easiest thing is to be weak, and you're lazy so you'll stay
that way.
I'm running on empty. I'm running on empty. Remember what it
meant to me.

It's up to me. I realize now, I guess it's up to me.
And I'll win somehow, I guess it's up to...

And you're absent, and I know it, and it's time to let me show
it.
I just wish you were the same. I guess it's up to me. (Stop!)


4.If Only Duct Tape Could Fix Everything

All blurry, no focus now. But what's focus when the lights are
all out?
I can't understand why I keep you around, but I can't, I won't
let you down.

Wondering how long until we break. Foundations that we built are
getting weak.
It seems that we're springing a leak, but I can't, I won't let
us drown.
No I can't, I won't let you down. I can't and I won't let you
down.

'Cause you know that I'll do anything for you,
And you see that it's aching inside me.
And I watch you go, and I don't run after you, and I guess I
just let you down.

All blurry, no focus now. But what's focus when the lights are
all out?
I can't understand why I keep you around, but I can't, I won't
let you down.
No I can't, I won't let you down. I can't and I won't let you
down.

'Cause you know that I'll do anything for you,
And you see that it's aching inside me.
And I watch you go, and I don't run after you, and I guess I
just let you down.

When it's not me who's forgetting all our dreams.
When it's not me who's forgetting all our dreams.
When it's not me who's forgetting all our, you're forgetting all
our dreams.
Forgetting all our dreams.

And I watch you go, and I don't run after you, and I guess I
just let you down.


5.Operate

The way you operate, the way you operate is straight to the
bone, is straight to the bone.
And everything you say, and everything you say it leaves me
alone, it leaves me alone.
The way you compromise, is like pulling out my eyes, my eyes.
And you say that everything I do, it bounces off of you, with
everything I say.

The way you operate, the way you operate is straight to the
bone, is straight to the bone.
And when I find my eyes, I'll cut you down to size, down to
size.
Until then, I'll wander around blind, bumping into signs, and
falling on my face.

The way I think you'll take it, so I guess I'm breaking it,
Every time I open my mouth, and I can't live it down.
And I think you know it, so I guess I'm blowing it,
Every time I open my mouth, no I can't live it down.

The way you operate, the way you operate is straight to the
bone, is straight to the bone.
And you say that everything I do, it bounces off of you, with
everything I say.

The way I think you'll take it, so I guess I'm breaking it,
Every time I open my mouth, and I can't live it down.
And I think you know it, so I guess I'm blowing it,
Every time I open my mouth, no I can't live it down.

The stupid things I'll say under the knife.
Sometimes the words I say don't come out right.
So all the things I wanted you to hear went unsaid, unsaid, went
unsaid.

The way I think you'll take it, so I guess I'm breaking it,
Every time I open my mouth, and I can't live it down.
And I think you know it, so I guess I'm blowing it,
Every time I open my mouth, no I can't live it down.
