Alkaline Trio
I’m Only Here to Disappoint
[Verse 1]
I'm hurtin' for someone else
To feel this pain
Are you hurtin' too?
I'm desperate
So desperate
[Verse 2]
But I won't get my hopes up
I'll just get all my ropes taught
After all
I'm only here to disappoint
[Chorus 1]
I am truly only here to disappoint
Like all good dreams, you wind up dead
All those promises I never kept
I laugh and you will cry again
And again and again and again
[Post-Chorus]
These simple things I just can't say
Remove the you from you and me
I stand to bring you to your knees
Again and again and again
[Verse 3]
I'm cryin' for someone
To show me
Real tears
I've tasted them
I've wasted them
So many empty years
[Verse 4]
Now I'm dying
Just to give you
A body I can give to
Something I can be a part of forever
[Chorus 1]
I am truly only here to disappoint
Like all good dreams, you wind up dead
All those promises I never kept
I laugh and you will cry again
And again and again and again
[Post-Chorus]
These simple things I just can't say
Remove the you from you and me
I stand to bring you to your knees
Again and again and again
[Bridge]
Distorted is my silhouette
Tainted, starved, and desperate
There's no easy fix for this
That I cannot control
I'm breaking apart at the soul
[Chorus 2]
Like all good dreams, you wind up dead
All those promises I never kept
I laugh and you will cry again
And again and again and again
[Post-Chorus]
These simple things I just can't say
Remove the you from you and me
I stand to bring you to your knees
Again and again and again
