SOMETHING CORPORATE LYRICS

"Konstantine"

Other versions of this song:

Konstantine from album "Ready... Break"





I can't imagine all the people that you know

And the places that you go

When the lights are turned down low

And I don't understand

All the things you've seen

But I'm slipping in between

You and your big... dreams

it's always you and my big dreams



And you tell me

That it's over

Wake up lying in a patch of four leaf clover

And your restless

And I'm naked

You've got to get out

You can't stand to see me shaking

no, could you let me go

I didn't think so



and you don't want to be here in the future

So you say

the present's just a pleasant

Interruption to the past

And you don't want to look much closer

'Cause you're afraid to find out all this hope

That you had sent into the sky by now had... crashed

and it did because of me



And then you bring me home

Afraid to find out that you're alone, no

And I'm sleeping in your living room

But we don't have much room

To live



And I had these dreams, in them I learned to play guitar

Maybe cross the country

Become a rockstar

And there was hope in me

That I could take you there

But damn you're so young

But I don't think I care

and if I hurt you then i'm sorry

please don't think that this is easy



And then you bring me home

'Cause we both know what its like to be alone, no

And I'm dreaming in your living room

But we don't have much room

To live



And Konstantine is walking down the stairs

Doesn't she look good

Standing in her underwear?

And I was thinking, what I was thinking

But we've been drinking

And it doesn't get me anywhere



My Konstantine came walking down the stairs

And all that I could do

Was touch her long blond hair

And I've been thinking

It hurts me thinking

That these nights when we were drinking

No they never got us anywhere, no



This is because I can spell konfusion with a K

And I can like it

It's to dying in anothers arms

and why i had to try it

It's to jimmy eat world

and those nights in my car

when the first star you see

may not be a star

I'm not your star?

Isn't that what you said

what you thought this song meant



And if this is what it takes

just to lie with my mistakes

and live with what I did to you

All the hell I put you through

I always catch the clock it's 11:11

And now you want to talk

it's not hard to dream

You'll always be my Konstantine

My Konstantine



They'll never hurt you like I do

No, They'll never hurt you like I do

No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No



This is to a girl who got into my head

with all the pretty things she did

Hey, you know that you keep me up in bed

It's to a girl who got into my head

with all these fucked up things I did

Hey maybe baby, you could keep me up in bed

My Konstantine



Spin around me like a dream

We played out on this movie screen

And I said,

Did you know I miss you

Did you know I miss you

Did you know I miss you

Did you know I miss you

Did you know I miss you

Did you know I miss you

Did you know I miss you



I miss you



And then you bring me home

And we'll go to sleep but this time not alone, no No,

And you'll kiss me in your living room, oh

I know you miss me in your living room

Cause these nights I think maybe that I miss you in my living room

We don't have much room

I said, does anybody need that room?

Because we all need a little more room

To live



...My Konstantine
