I'm Only Here To Disappoint

I'm Only Here To Disappoint - Alkaline Trio (The Alkaline Trio)

Well I'm hurtin'

For someone else to feel this pain

Are you hurtin' too

I'm desperate

So desperate

But I won't get my hopes up

I'll just get all my ropes taut

After all

I'm only here to disappoint

I am truly only here to disappoint

Like all good dreams you wind up dead

All those promises I never kept

I laugh and you will cry again

And again and again and again

These simple things I just can't say

Remove the you from you and me

I stand to bring you to your knees

Again and again and again

And I'm crying

For someone to show me

Real tears

I've tasted them

I've wasted them

So many empty years

Now I'm dying just to give you

A body I can give to

Something I can be a part of forever

I am truly only here to disappoint

Like all good dreams you wind up dead

All those promises I never kept

I laugh and you will cry again

And again and again and again

These simple things I just can't say

Remove the you from you and me

I stand to bring you to your knees

Again and again and again

Distorted is my silhouette

Tainted starved and desperate

There's no easy fix for this

That I cannot control

I'm breaking

Apart at the soul

Like all good dreams you wind up dead

All those promises I never kept

I laugh and you will cry again

And again and again and again

These simple things I just can't say

Remove the you from you and me

I stand to bring you to your knees

Again and again and again
