Excuse Me
Judasville Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stuck in this four-walls
Memories can't last forever
The feeling we belong together
It's a goddamn fucked up mystery
When I'm all alone at night
I'm thinking about you and the promises we didn't keep

That time of night when the dogs get tired
I've been a fuck up for too long
Hell I don't feel all that strong
What if my eyes are playing tricks on me?
And I'm thinking this better not be real

Hell I can't ignore the pain that is burning deep inside
Soul for keeps and foolish pride, but that ain't right

Excuse me girl do you know what I want?
Do you know deep inside what I'm thinking?
Are you the one I've been looking for?
The one that swipes me off the floor
Outside now that's a different story
A dog-eat-dog race for fame and glory
Whisper sweet things in my ears
And make this cold cold world disappear

So what's up there Ms Glea,
Can I live up to what I want to be?
Am I for real or just a fantasy
What I want and what I'll have is just a matter of time
So do me right
Top of the world, wasted





Thank you for the pain
Thank you for the blood and stains
