Song lyrics
Passed out in our school clothes, 
So we'd wake up in our Sunday's best. 
I never asked for your opinion, 
I just got it; 
And I get it. 
You move slow like daytime drama, 
And I'm boring like his songs. 
So while I'm taking you for granted, 
We'll be humming along. 

Well cross my heart and hope to...
I'm lying just to keep you here. 
So reckless, (So reckless.), 
So thoughtless, (So thoughtless.) 
So careless, I could care less. 
Well cross my heart and hope to... 
I'm lying just to keep you here. 
(So reckless.) 
Well she's so heartless, 
And I could care less. 

So paint your face up something elegant, 
And this town may be a darker shade of red. 
'Cause a long night, 
Means a fist fight, 
Against your pillow and my pearly whites. 
I want to hear you scream. 
Yu'd like me better on my knees.
So let us pray.
(We don't believe in second chances.) 
So let us pray.

Don't you ask me. 
Don't you move. (Anywhere.) 

Well cross my heart and hope to...
I'm lying just to keep you here. 
So reckless, (So reckless.), 
So thoughtless, (So thoughtless.) 
So careless, I could care less. 
Well cross my heart and hope to... 
I'm lying just to keep you here. 
(So reckless.) 
Well she's so heartless, 
And I could care less. 

Well cross my heart and hope to... 
I'm lying just to keep you here. 
(I'll keep you here, I'll keep you here.) 

One of us never did it but we're taking it all, 
And tell me why you never promised that you wanted it all. 
And her eyes never batted when she said it. 
It's a long night, open, know it... 

This glass house is burning down. 
(Open all night, know it...) 
You light the match, I'll stick around. 
(Open all night, know it...) 
I'll give you everything you want, 
(Open all night, know it...) 
And wish the worst on what I was. 
(Open all night, know it...) 
This glass house is burning down. 
(Open all night, know it...) 
You light the match, I'll stick around. 
(Open all night, know it...) 
I'll give you everything you want, 
(Open all night, know it...) 
And wish the worst on what I was. 
(Open all night, know it...) 

Tonight won't make a difference. 
Tonight won't make a difference. 
Tonight won't make a difference. 
Well tonight won't make a difference. 
Well tonight won't make a difference. 
Tonight won't make a difference. 
Tonight won't make a difference. 
Well tonight won't make a difference.

best song on the CD by far

The typical tbs harmony at the end and the over-lapping of the lyrics is wicked.

tbs fucking rocks!.. this is one of my favorite songs... I love the way a certain song makes you feel .. how you just genuinely love it so much .. you feel the need to just sit and listen to it.... which is a perpetual feeling with tbs. i am constantly immersed and amazed by their music .

x3 go on just say it x3

yes i have to agree that i simply love this song..

but i have a question that maybe someone can help me with.. i was listening this song the other day for about the billionth time and all of a sudden some of the lyrics sounded really familiar.. i looked up brandnew's Soco Amaretto Lime and found that some of taking back sundays words are very close to what jesse sings. "Passed out.. on the over-pass... sunday best and broken glass" sounds awefully like "passed out in our school close so we'd wake up in our sundays best". I kno jesse and john from tbs had some issues.. but i thought they were all cleared up..could someone please explain?

well u do make a good point about how the lyrics seem somewhat similar but i dont think that has anything to do with the john/jesse feud because john is no longer in taking back sunday. but i dont know, im just taking a stab at it.

and 2, i really wish sum1 could explain the meaning because the lyrics are powerful enough but i like to understand what the song is talking about to make it even stronger
