Two Letters - Bayside

I know, I know I should be better

I think I am to some degree

I can’t explain why it gets harder

The more people count on me

Maybe it’s all in my head

And nothing’s changed and I’m still in the basement

With no tattoos or mortgage payments

Well I’m not so good with tenses

I’m tensing up thinking about

What I’m supposed to call you now

It takes a lot to shake me

My body breaks to figure out

How to leave the past behind

When it surrounds all of the time

And I don’t know what I should call you now

I don’t know what I should call you now

I don’t believe that anyone runs

From their past so easily

Unless they run towards someone else, and

I’ve seen you lacing up for years

I guess your future looks great

Well good for you

You’re still my inspiration

But less in tune and more abrasive

Well I’m not so good with tenses

I’m tensing up thinking about

What I’m supposed to call you now

It takes a lot to shake me

My body breaks to figure out

How to leave the past behind

When it surrounds all of the time

And I don’t know what I should call you now

I don’t know what I should call you now

«Ex» sounds dirty I can’t say it

Sounds so final, and I’m still praying

For the worst, for the better

Nothing now, just two letters

I hope you understand

I’m not prepared to call you just a friend

Well I’m not so good with tenses

I’m tensing up thinking about

What I’m supposed to call you now

Well I’m not so good with tenses

I’m tensing up thinking about

What I’m supposed to call you now

Well I’m not so good with tenses

I’m tensing up thinking about

What I’m supposed to call you now

And It takes a lot to shake me

My body breaks to figure out

How to leave the past behind

When it surrounds all of the time

And I don’t know what I should call you

I don’t know what I should call you

I don’t know what I should call you now
