Mental Baggage

You came to me a broken woman

And left me a broken man

And now it's all been justified

And you've forgotten who I am

 

It was the night before my birthday

Making out in the shelters, hiding from the rain

I'd give anything I own

To go back in time and re-live that day

 

(Chorus)

But there's nothing I can do

You're not the person I thought you were

There's things I wish I knew

Before I ever got involved

Can't put my finger on it

There's something wrong deep inside your mind

Well I dam near died

You know I tried

Never should have fell in love with you

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To me it was the perfect summer

With anything but a perfect end

I was so high on a cloud

I was the happiest I've been

 

Then that walking on eggshell feeling

It seemed I couldn't say anything right

Watching my dreams all disappear

I can't believe how dark it got that night

 

(Chorus)

But there's nothing I can do

You're not the person I thought you were

There's things I wish I knew

Before I ever got involved

Can't put my finger on it

There's something wrong deep inside your mind

Well I dam near died

you know I tried

Never should have fell in love with you

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Bridge)

I can't help but wonder

If you didn't open some doors with your medicine wheel

There's something evil about how cruel you became

And the hold that you had on my heart

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (guitar lead)

So many broken promises

Your words still going through my mind

Everything I could possibly wanna hear

Just to shoot me down

 

Well I can't explain, it was so insane

You know I should just bury my head in shame

I would have done anything for you

I was such a fool

 

(Chorus)

But there's nothing I can do

You're not the person I thought you were

There's things I wish I knew

Before I ever got involved

Can't put my finger on it

There's something wrong deep inside your mind

Well I dam near died

you know I tried

Never should have fell in love with you...

 

 

Toothbrush

There's something about the older girls

They just don't seem as trusting

Never said I was a saint

Just trying to be the best that I can be

 

(Bridge)

It doesn't matter how hard I try

To be the guy you want me to be

You're always searching for a reason

To pull the rug out from underneath me

 

(Chorus)

Throwing your toothbrush away

Throwing your toothbrush away again

Throwing your toothbrush away

Throwing your toothbrush away again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

The years are going by so fast

I wonder if I'll ever get it right

Been thinking about the past

And mistakes I've made through out my life

 

(Bridge)

It doesn't matter how hard I try

To be the guy you want me to be

You're always searching for a reason

To pull the rug out from underneath me

 

(Chorus)

Throwing your toothbrush away

Throwing your toothbrush away again

Throwing your toothbrush away

Throwing your toothbrush away again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~guitar lead

(Bridge)

It doesn't matter how hard I try

To be the guy you want me to be

You're always searching for a reason

To pull the rug out from underneath me

 

(Chorus)

Throwing your toothbrush away

Throwing your toothbrush away again

Throwing your toothbrush away

Throwing your toothbrush away again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For the last time

For the last time

For the last time

For the last time
