Lyrics for Walking The Dog as interpreted by SomthinCorporat

Walking The Dog Lyrics
Walking alone 'cause the night is dead.
Crossed my mind when I crossed the bridge.

How you lost your mind,
and your wrist got bruised,
and you wanted better love
when it was sleeping in your bedroom.
Hold on,
Stay on my side,
Don't go.

If you could see me
Whoever I am.
It's not like the movies,
but it's not all skin and bones.
So come on love
(come on, come one, come all and go)
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
I will not let you go

Now I'm walking alone 'cause the night is dead.
My feet don't glide like they did back then,
when I would call you up so we could shoot the moon.
These days I'm left to howl in tune.

Hearts do break
and I must admit
I found a verse and a chorus
so I might have been faking it.
Think I might have only cried just once.

After all the shows,
after all the boys of summer had gone,
amid all the confusion
and friends I've been losing
I always thought from the start
I'd be the one moving on.
I guess I'll never know
Where all the boys of summer will go
but I'll miss what we made
and the days were not wasted.
There are some things I may never know.

How you lost your mind
and your wrists got bruised
and you wanted better love
well it's sleeping your bedroom.
Hold on,
Stay on my side,
Don't go.

An absolutely beautiful song. While I wish Nate would stop writing about this girl, it's nice to see that he's now writing about being over her. He's basically saying he still loves her, he won't let go of the memories they had, and life isn't as good as it was when they were together. But even with all that, he's ready to move on. Anybody who's ever lost a great love can relate to the feeling.

Hearts do break
and I must admit,
I got a better set of chords
so I might have been faking it.
Think I might have only cried just once.

This verse is crushingly beautiful

i wonder if nate wrote this or if jack did...? while the self-abuse recalls the format's "time bomb" the line "how you wanted better love" calls to mind "better love" by steel train. then again, maybe it's a beautiful combination of both guys' work, just like the band!

So I'm confused. fun.'s myspace says "I found a verse and a chorus", but it doesn't sound like he's singing that at all. It sounds like what krikitarmy said, "I've got a better set of cords." It makes more sense anyway, plus verse would have to be two syllables if those were correct.

I dunno though. Maybe they felt lazy, assumed these lyrics were right, and copy/pasted this to their lyrics on myspace. Haha.

It reminds me of a "dead end song" the format had.. when "she breaks for the summer, so she can find lovers." and the whole "boys of summer" kind of intertwines. or maybe "boys of summer" is alluding to don henley.. or maybe nothing at all.
