Hard Lines

You think it looks so pretty To write things down in pen But I think it's much more simple To write things in pencil instead This fear of making promises That I can't keep Keeps me from seeing sides of People that I meet I draw hard lines in hopes that They don't want to stay I've hit hards times 'cause it always Turns out that way Trial and error never seem To make things right But I'll keep trying, babe Come home with me tonight Raincheck Doomsday is tomorrow I've got a lot that I've been waiting for So soon this could all be over The search for love just leaves me wanting more I just can't seem to start with you I wish that I could have my cake And eat it, too Caught with red velvet hands and Blood stains on my shoes Like life is about nothing more Than having fun Yeah Just call me Icarus I'm closer to the sun Raincheck Doomsday is tomorrow I've got a lot that I've been waiting for So soon this could all be over The search for meaning leaves me wanting more It's fast, this life of getting nowhere With anyone, it's getting hard to hide How long will it take for you to see through The walls that I put between you and I I just can't seem to start with you
