There's something you don't know, I've walked you off to keep you on your toes
There's something you didn't know, I've grown some bones, so I can walk you off

Tonight, tonight, everything's alright tonight, tonight

If I were in your shoes, I'd run a thousand miles just to tell you
If I were in your room, using just my eyes I would tell you
And I would tell you

There's something you didn't know, you've got your teeth sunk in me and it hurts,
And I'm a lie away from saying what I really think, is this the bottom of a bottle saying swim or sink and you don't even need me now

Tonight, tonight, everything's alright, tonight, tonight,

If I were in your shoes, I'd run a thousand miles just to tell you
If I were in your room, using just my eyes, using just my eyes,I would tell you

If I were in your shoes, I'd run a thousand miles just to tell you
If I were in your room, using just my eyes I would tell you

If I were in your shoes, in your shoes, in your
And I'm a lie away from saying what I really think, is this the bottom of a bottle saying swim or sink and you don't even need me now

    General Comment:I liked this song more when i thought he said "and im a lier for saying what i really think, this is the bottom of a bottle and im too deep in" cuz it just sounds more confusingly poetic.

    General Comment:I think it's about wanting to tell someone something, but putting on a false front and pretending everything is ok - even though it's not. "And i'm a lie away from saying what i really think".

    General Comment:I love this song ^^
    I think it's about a guy whose broken up with his girlfriend (or is breaking up with her)
    and he's saying that she's not good for him
    "There's something you didn't know you've got your teeth in me and it hurts."
    But everything's going to be alright, for him at least.
    And he doesn't really want to tell her what he thinks because it might hurt her too much,
    "And i'm a lie away from saying what i really think".

    But that's just what I think ^^

    I don't really know.
    But the line
    "If i were in your room, using just my eyes i would tell you."
    sounds stalkerish...lol.

    erm...as far as meanings go..that was a useless post!
