On Love, On Life - Bayside

They all come out as letters

And I contemplate mistakes that we all make

Start and the ending of eras

When mystery fades

We identify the problems

But, they may not be problems after all

Shock and dismay, they affect what we say

We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues

'Cause after all, it’s only our lives anyway…

And I can’t let it bother me

If fact and fate just can’t agree on love, on life

Can’t we stop taking ourselves too seriously?

So I sit here carving words into the wall

Words that remind me of just how I was

I never felt as old and lonely as I felt

When I was young and in love

When mystery fades

We identify the problems

But, they may not be problems after all

Shock and dismay, they affect what we say

We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues

'Cause after all, it’s only our lives anyway…

And I can’t let it bother me

If fact and fate just can’t agree on love, on life

Can’t we stop taking ourselves too seriously?

Can’t let it bother me

If fact and fate just can’t agree on love, on life

Can’t we stop taking ourselves too seriously?

Too seriously

Too seriously…
