lyrics

ON GUILTY PLEASURES

So I guess I finally know what shame is all about, but I won't repent because I've got nothing I can stand to say out loud.
It's a part of me that I could live without but I want what I want so now the only thing that's left to do is..

Count the cost of all my sins, let it multiply my fears and doubts.
I will never fall in love again, but I think that I can do without...

In the end, it all comes down to what you need and what you have.
In the end, it's like a joke that makes you wince when you should laugh.
I guess it's sad to want somebody who will never want you back.
In the end, it isn't living if you're living in the past.

I want what I want and I will take what you give... but now I'm walking back to my car, tired and lonely from guarding my heart.
I want you to mean more, but I know what it meant...
Now I am walking home, and I am walking alone.
