If one drink can make tonight slip my mind, then I
Should drink up so I can forget that I have lived my life
You are an example of better things to come
So I'll wait on some other escape that leads me nowhere fast
I've gotta ask

You've got nothing to lose
Except for me and you
And I don't want that attitude
When you know I can do, I'll do better than you

If one can drink can make tonight slip your mind, then you
Should drink up so you can convince yourself that I'm cute
We are an example of why not to fall in love
It takes a turn, and then it hurts
More than you could dream of

When you've got nothing to lose
Except for me and you
And I don't want that attitude
When you know I can do, I'll do better than you
And you've got nothing to prove
Oh, no, wait, yes you do
You wear it so well that we think it's true

You can't stay, I want you gone
You're pulling the carpet I was standing on
You can't stay, I want you gone
You're pulling the carpet I was standing on
You can't stay, I want you gone
You're pulling the carpet I was standing on
Here's the exits, exits, exits

You've got nothing to lose
Except for me and you
And I don't want that attitude
When you know I can do, I'll do better than you

We're already down for love
(Why not to fall in, why not to fall in love)
We're already down for love
(Why not to fall in, why not to fall in love)

    Lyric Correction:Lyric corrections:

    Intro: Should drink up so I can forget that I HAVEN'T lived my life

    Intro: So WHY wait on some other escape that leads me nowhere fast

    Chorus: And I LOVE that attitude

    Bridge: FOR pulling the carpet I was standing on

    Bridge: Here's the EXIT

    All pretty minor corrections but corrections nonetheless. :)

    General Comment:The lyrics at the end are wrong. it's suppposed to be

    We are an example of...
    (Why not to fall in, why not to fall in love)
    We are an example of...
    (Why not to fall in, why not to fall in love)

    Just like it is in the 2nd verse.

    General Comment:I'm not sure I really get the end though?

    We're already down for love
    (Why not to fall in, why not to fall in love)

    But yeah, from the rest of it, it's pretty much how someone leaves you prehaps that initial stage where you're starting to believe you're better off

    "When you know I can do, I'll do better than you"


    but you're still upset about it.

    "If one drink can make tonight slip my mind, then I Should drink up so I can forget that I have lived my life"

    General Comment:I LOVE this song.
    I kinda think it's about a girlfriend, or ex for that matter.

    I think the whole "You wear it so well that we all think it's true." Means something like the girl was so fake or tried to be something that she's not and they all believed her.
