This Time
Everyday Sunday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I can't find my way around this town anymore.
So I walked out the door and waited for you to come.
But I couldn't figure out what it was for.
So now I'm looking out still waiting for you to come,
And it seems like I can't do anything to help you.
But I'm doing it all wrong.
But I can't do it for you that's not what it's for.
And I don't wanna look at the stars one more time,
And I think I can do it and I'll be fine.
I said I'm not giving it to you this time It's for God,
Nothing more, and I think I'll be fine.
You tied these strings around me
And choked me up to where I couldn't feel anything, and I just wanna move.
I can't sit here anymore,
I'm so sick of the floor, there's just something more.
He's going back there, back where,
Everyone's got a line, but if there's no love I don't want it this time.
I don't wanna fight it anymore, so here I am, and I'm not yours.
I said I don't wanna do it for you this time.
