Song lyrics
I am heaven sent. 
Don’t you dare forget. 
I am all you've ever wanted, 
What all the other boys all promised. 
Sorry I told, I just needed you to know. 
I think in decimals and dollars, 
I am the cause to all your problems. 
Shelter from cold. 
We are never alone. 
Coordinate brain and mouth, 
Then ask me what its like to have my self so figured out.
Wish I knew. 

I hope this song starts a craze. 
The kind of song that ignites the airwaves. 
The kind of song that makes people glad to be where they are, 
With whoever they're there with. 
This is war. 
Every line is about who I don’t want to write about anymore. 
Hope you come down with something they can’t diagnose, 
Don’t have the cure for. 
Holding on to your grudge, 
Oh it’s so hard to have someone to love. 
And keeping quiet is hard, 
Cause you can’t keep a secret if it never was a secret to start. 
At least pretend you didn’t want to get caught. 

We're concentrating on falling apart. 
We were contenders, now we’re throwing the fight. 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe... in us. 

Oh we're so c-c-c-controversial. 
We are entirely smooth. 
We admit to the truth. 
We are the best at what we do. 
And these are the words you wish you wrote down, 
This is the way you wish your voice sounds, 
Handsome and smart. 
Oh my tongue’s the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart. 
And it’s all from watching TV, 
And from speeding up my breathing. 
Wouldn’t stop if I could. 
Oh, it hurts to be this good. 
Holding on to your grudge. 
Oh, it hurts to always have to be honest with the one that you love. 
Oh, so let it go. 

We're concentrating on falling apart. 
We were contenders, now we’re throwing the fight. 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe.

We're concentrating on falling apart. 
We were contenders, now we’re throwing the fight. 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe... in us. 

This is the grace only we can bestow. 
This is the price you pay for loss of control. 
This is the break in the bend. 
This is the closest of calls. 
This is the reason you’re alone. 
This is the rise and the fall. 

We're concentrating on falling apart. 
We were contenders, now we’re throwing the fight. 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe.

We're concentrating on falling apart. 
We were contenders, now we’re throwing the fight. 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe, 
I just want to believe... in us.

Reminds me of what someone would say to me, but then thinking of the relationship it's self, knowing that this is exactly how it is, when two people arn't together.

ive had this album sitting on my shelf for quite a while and this morning i put it in to play. this song struck me as shocking because its a song he wrote as a message to the lead singer of taking back sunday, adam. as you may or may not know, jesse from bn was in tbs in its early years, but due to unfaithfulness with adams gf, jesse left. most of these two bands lyrics are based upon their painful memories and lost friendship.

CORRECTION!
john and jesse had the conflict.
