Lyrics
Ain't that the way it always starts
A simple round of conversation
Became a shameful equation
I flipped you station to station
Hey, don't go and turn the other way
Don't say there's nothing more to say
Come on, hear me out
Hush, hush settle down, button up
Don't make a sound
Shame, shame go away
Come again some other day
You used to say I couldn't save you enough
So, I've been saving it up, I started saving it up
And when you said I couldn't give you enough
I started giving you up, I started giving you up
You are not me, Arlandria, Arlandria
You ain't what I mean, Arlandria, Arlandria
Oh God, you gotta make it stop
Chase all of those memories away
Save them all for another day
Don't you remember it was rain that drowned you?
Wait, I wanna see if you can change
I wanna keep all I can take
I feel much better now
Use me up, pit me out
Let me be your hand-me-down
Fame, fame go away
Come again some other day
You used to say I couldn't save you enough
So, I've been saving it up, I started saving it up
And when you said I couldn't give you enough
I started giving you up, I started giving you up
You are not me, Arlandria, Arlandria
You ain't what I mean, Arlandria, Arlandria
Oh God, you gotta make it stop
My sweet Virginia, I'm the same as I was in your arm
My sweet Virginia, I'm the same as I was in your arm
Shame, shame go away
Come again some other day
Memories keep haunting me
Help me chase them all away
Hush, now, settle down
Button up don't make a sound
Close your eyes turn around
Help me burn this to the ground
Come, now take the blame
That's ok I'll play the game
I don't care It's all the same
Watch it all go up in flames
Use me up, spit me out
Let me be your hand-me-down
Fame, fame go away
Come again some other day
You used to say I couldn't save you enough
So, I've been saving it up, I started saving it up
And when you said I couldn't give you enough
I started giving you up, I started giving you up
You are not me, Arlandria, Arlandria
You ain't what I mean, Arlandria, Arlandria
Oh God, you gotta make it stop
My sweet Virginia
Oh God, you gotta make it stop
My sweet Virginia
Oh God, you gotta make it stop
