Actions Not Words
Crash Romeo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll turn myself in at the end
This is something
That I never thought I'd say
Forget everything you know
Like who, what, when, where, why and how
This tragic story every came to be
Tell me again, my hands are shaking now
I lost my head, it left me for dead
With every regret, try and take me on now
With every word that you said
I finally came to grips
That my life may not be legit
And I haven't ever felt this good in years
And I'll hate myself for ever
Pretending I'm someone else
Because everything I've ever done
Has gone straight down to hell
Tell me again, my hands are shaking now.
I lost my head, it left me for dead.
With every regret, try and take me on now
With every word that you said has fallen
What's left to tell? We'll let them burnout
I'll see you in hell
What have I done?
What have I done to me?
What have I done?
What have I done to me?
Tell me again, my hands are shaking now
I lost my head, it left me for dead
With every regret, try and take me on now
With every word that you
Tell me again, my hands are shaking now
I lost my head, it left me for dead
With every regret, try and take me on now
With every word that you said
Tell me again, tell me again
Tell me again, try and take me on now
With every word that you said
