Song lyrics
I'm just a dog-eared page you turn back to
Where's the place for me
when we're both in love with you?

I can't escape these friends
I've made since you left town.
They throw redundent parties 
where I'm too often found.
And while I sit and watch the girls and boys
trade views of new tattoos,
I wonder if it's too late to call your mom
and catch up on some news.
She says you'll be home soon for me--

And it'll be just like you were never gone.
I'll try to be just some guy you're getting on.
But basically we're both in love with you.
I'm just a dog-eared page you turn back to.
Where's the place for me,
when we're both in love with you?

I've got these "friends" with quotes
and girls* with asterisks.
I watch the time wither
and fall from my wrist.
Out on the porch the morning sun
is bleeding through the walls.
I don't think your roomate
is writing down my calls.
She says you'll be home soon for me--

You said the distance
would make a difference,
but it didn't.

The matches have to feel pretty good about themselves..every single song on their album could become an instant hit. They're so catchy & clever. Lyrics, riffs, guitar solos, beats, EVERYTHING. They're all geniuses. Every last one of them.

i am overwhelmed with this band. i first saw them at the intersection in grand rapids: god bless them all. wow..fine piece of work, they are. so basically, this song is about a girl who he liked, but she kind of chose her career over him. she thinks she doesnt have time for him, and shes focusing on herself, but he wants to play an active role in her life, because..shit, he loves her. someone, clear this mess up, reassure me that i am vallad in everything i just said, please.
