The Bomb Lyrics
Oh, I knew you, but not that way
I was a little different,
not sure just what to say
you were always out of reach,
so hard to please
but still I tried, yes I tried
but you were nothing but damaged goods
lost mad misunderstood
I couldn't justify my time
all those secret dreams
I never realized
I put them all away
never saw the light of day
just stuck there in between
friends and a love affair
you gotta stick em together
or you gotta blow em apart
and I blew it apart
Bomb maker put down your switch
I got an itchy trigger finger
that I best not scratch
you know everything
about explosions and implosions
you dont know a thing about love
think it over reconsider
ruminate before it's too late
you can't take it back
and I should know better
it's none to clever
knowing you drop bombs like that
it took some time to heal up the burns
to put the fire out
to turn the round-about
I hope I live to learn
some people don't want savin
you gotta be a quick draw
push your button first
and blow them apart
...before they blow you apart
yes you blow them apart
and I blew it apart
I was a little different,
not sure just what to say
you were always out of reach,
so hard to please
but still I tried, yes I tried
but you were nothing but damaged goods
lost mad misunderstood
I couldn't justify my time
all those secret dreams
I never realized
I put them all away
never saw the light of day
just stuck there in between
friends and a love affair
you gotta stick em together
or you gotta blow em apart
and I blew it apart
Bomb maker put down your switch
I got an itchy trigger finger
that I best not scratch
you know everything
about explosions and implosions
you dont know a thing about love
think it over reconsider
ruminate before it's too late
you can't take it back
and I should know better
it's none to clever
knowing you drop bombs like that
it took some time to heal up the burns
to put the fire out
to turn the round-about
I hope I live to learn
some people don't want savin
you gotta be a quick draw
push your button first
and blow them apart
...before they blow you apart
yes you blow them apart
and I blew it apart
