Something about football

by Mild insomnia   Sep 20, 2004


Every conversation,
The subject's the same,
I'm losing my patience,
I can't run away,
I can't answer in time,
I'm not thinking like you,
The things in my mind,
Everything we could do.

And it's not like I've felt like this before,
Somehow you've opened the door.

And now my head's a mess,
I'm thinking things I shouldn't.
This is too much stress, I'll tell you, no, I couldn't.
Now I must confess,
As you undress,
I'm lost in thought,
I snap out of my stupid day dream,
And bring up something about football.

We can talk til our heads hurt,
And still end up asking,
That same old question,
What am I thinking?
What can I tell you?
That is what I need to know,
And still I have no clue,
We need to let go.

No, it's not like I've felt like this before,
Somehow you've opened the door.

Oh I'm so confused,
I just can't concentrate,
And I can't tell the truth,
So now I'm in a right state,
I hope you don't know,
That as you go,
I'm lost in it all,
I snap out of my stupid day dream,
And bring up something about football.

It would be great to know that you,
Were thinking the same things too,
But I'm positive, that you're not.
And it's so hard to change my mind,
Another topic I can't find,
I pray you don't know what I've thought.

My mind's like a maze,
And I can't find a way out,
It's sending me insane,
I really wanna shout out,
That I'm in love with you,
And just want to...
But I feel so small,
I snap out of my stupid day dream,
And bring up something about football.

I can't get away,
These thoughts are taking over,
Still I can't complain,
I'd rather this,
Than another,
And I must admit,
I won't change it,
Don't let me fall,
Out of all my stupid day dreams,
To bring up something about football.
