Konstantine
Something Corporate Lyrics

I can't imagine all the people that you know
I don't know who you know

And the places that you go
or where you like to go

When the lights are turned down low
I don't know what you do in the dark

And I don't understand all the things you've seen
I don't know what you have experienced

But I'm slipping in between
But I'm coming closer

You and your big dreams
you and your ambitious goals

It's always you
You are always on my mind

In my big dreams
In my big aspirations

And you tell me that it's over
You tell me our relationship is at an end

Wake up lying in a patch of four leaf clovers
Sometimes I wake up with good luck, but it doesn't last

And your restless, and I'm naked
You're anxious, and I'm vulnerable

You've gotta get out
You want to escape

You can't stand to see me shaking
You can't bear to see me vulnerable

No

Could you let me go?
Are you capable of ending it?

I didn't think so
I didn't think you would

And you don't want to be here in the future
You don't see a future for us

So you say the present's just a pleasant interruption to the past
You think our relationship is just temporary

And you don't want to look much closer
You're afraid to examine the truth

'Cause you're afraid to find out all this hope You had sent into the sky by now had crashed
You're scared the hope you had for us is gone

And it did

Because of me
Because of my actions

And then you bring me home
Then you bring me back to your place

Afraid to find out that you're alone
You don't want to find out that you're alone

And I'm sleeping in your living room
I'm crashing on your couch

But we don't have much room to live
But we don't have much space to breathe

I had these dreams that I learned to play guitar
I dreamed of becoming a musician

Maybe cross the country
Maybe touring the country

Become a rock star
Becoming a famous musician

And there was hope in me that I could take you there
I hoped I could share that journey with you

But dammit you're so young
But damn, you're too young

Well I don't think I care
Well, I don't think I mind

And if I hurt you
If I ever hurt you

Then I'm sorry
Then I apologize

Please don't think that this was easy
Please don't think this was simple

And Konstantine is walking down the stairs
And you are coming down the stairs, Konstantine

Doesn't she look good
Don't you look great

Standing in her underwear
Wearing only underwear

And I was thinking, What I was thinking
And I was thinking something I can't say

We've been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere
We've been drinking and it's not taking us anywhere

My Konstantine came walking down the stairs
My Konstantine came down the stairs

And all that I could do is touch her long blonde hair
All I could do was touch your long blonde hair

And I've been thinking, It hurts me thinking that these nights When we were drinking no they never got us anywhere
And I've been thinking, it hurts to remember that we never got anywhere during these nights of drinking

This is because I can spell konfusion with a k And I like it
This is because I can spell confusion with a 'k' and I like it

It's to dying in another's arms and why I had to try it
It's about dying in someone else's arms, and why I felt the need to experience it

It's to jimmy eat world and those nights in my car When the first star you see may not be a star I'm not your star Isn't that what you said
It's about Jimmy Eat World and those nights in my car when the first star you see may not be a star. And how you said I'm not your star

What you thought this song meant
What you thought this song was about

And if this is what it takes Just to lie in my mistakes
And if this is what I have to do to admit my mistakes

And live with what I did to you And all the hell I put you through
And live with the pain I caused you and all the hardships I put you through

I always catch the clock It's 11:11
I always check the time when it's 11:11

And now you want to talk
And now you want to have a conversation

It's not hard to dream
It's easy to fantasize

You'll always be my Konstantine
You will always be my Konstantine

Konstantine, they'll never hurt you like I do
Konstantine, no one will ever hurt you like I did

No, they'll never hurt you like I do
No, no one will ever hurt you like I did

This is to a girl who got into my head With all the pretty things she did Hey You know You keep me up in bed
This is dedicated to a girl who got in my head with all the lovely things she did and how she keeps me up at night

This is to a girl who got into my head With all the fucked up things I did Hey
This is dedicated to a girl who got inside my head in spite of all the messed up things I did

Maybe, baby, you could keep me up in bed
Perhaps, you could keep me up at night, baby

My Konstantine
My Konstantine

Spin around me like a dream we played out on this movie screen
You revolve around me like a dream we acted out on this movie screen

And I said Did you know I missed you?
And I said, did you know I miss you?

Oh god I miss you
Oh, god, I miss you

And then you bring me home And we'll go to sleep, but this time, not alone, no no
And then you bring me back to your place, and we'll sleep together, but not alone this time

And you'll kiss me in your living room
And you'll kiss me in your living room

I know You'll miss me in your living room
I know you'll miss me in your living room

'Cause these nights I think maybe that I'll miss you in my living room
Because these nights, I think maybe I'll miss you in my living room

We don't have much room
We don't have much space

I said does anybody need that room?
I wonder if anyone else needs that space

Because we all need a little more room To live
Because we all need a bit more space to live
