Great Romances Of The 20th Century Lyrics

September never stays this cold
Where I come from
And you know
I'm not one for complaining,
But I love the way you'd roll
Excuses off the tip of your tongue
As I slowly fall apart (slowly, quietly, slowly)
Fall apart

This won't mean a thing come tomorrow
And that's exactly how I'll make it seem
Cause I'm still not sleeping,
Thinking I've crawled home from worse than this

So please, please (please)
I'm running out of sympathy (I'm running out of sympathy!)
And I never said I'd take this
I never said I'd take this lying down

She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with [Repeat x2]
(I never said I'd take this lying down, let's just get this over with,
And I've crawled home from worse than this)
She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with
She says
"Come on, come on"

You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything [Repeat x3]
You always come so close
I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know

You always come close but this never comes easy [Repeat x2]
You always come, you come in close

I never said I'd take this lying down [Repeat x3]
But I've crawled home from worse than this

If it's not keeping you up nights
Then what's the point [Repeat x4]

I'm in your room
Now is this turning you on
Am I turning you on?

I'm in your room
Are you turned on?

I'm on the corner of your bed,
I'm practically naked,
Are you turned on,
Are you turned on?

Great Romances Of The 20th Century

This is about a guy who loves this girl but is picking up flaws in their relationship. He wants to stay with her but he us running out of sympathy for her, while she just wants it to be a quickie in general. He finds it hard to be with her and realizes that he shouldn't be with someone who takes advantage of him, but he still would do anything to be with her.

The title is a reference to a television show that profiled celebrity couples. Like many Taking Back Sunday songs, it is not mentioned in the lyrics.

You Know How I Do Lyrics

So sick, so sick of being tired.
And oh so tired of being sick.
We're both such magnificent liars.
So crush me baby, I'm all ears.
So obviously desperate, so desperately obvious.
I'll give in one more time and feed you stupid
Lines all about "cleaning up my act"

We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.(4X)

So sick, so sick of being tired.
And oh so tired of being sick.
Willing and ready to prove the worst
Of everything you said about.
So obviously desperate, so desperately obvious.
So good at setting bad examples.
Listen, chic, I've had all I can handle.

We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore. (4X)

Think of all the fun you had.
The finest line divides a night well spent from a waste of time.
Think of all the days you spent alone with just
Your T.V. set and "I can barely smile" (2X)

Let's go
He's smoked out in the back of the van, says he's held up with holding on and on and on. (2X)

You Know How I Do

This is a song about a guy and his girlfriend who both lead a life of partying, drinking and drugs. The guy says he's had enough of it, but his girlfriend hasn't so it's either give it up or he's going to dump her.

The song title came from the movie Made starring Vince Vaughn and Jon Faverau. Vaughn's character, Ricky Slade, says, "You know how I do" throughout the film.

There's No I In Team Lyrics

Well I can't regret,
Can't you just forget it?
I started something I couldn't finish
And if we go down,
We go down together
Best friends means,
Well best friends means

And I've got a twenty-dollar bill
That says you're up late night starting
Fist fights versus fences in your backyard
Wearing your black eye like a badge of honor
Soaking in sympathy
From friends who never loved you
Nearly half as much as me

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's just what anyone would do
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's something unforgivable oh oh

Well I can't regret,
Can't you just forget it?
I started something I couldn't finish
If we go down,
We go down together
Best friends means,
Well best friends means

You never knew
Well I never told you
Everything I know about breaking hearts
I learned from you, it's true
I've never done it with the style and grace you have
But I've made long term plans
Based on these mistakes

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's just what anyone would do
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's something unforgivable

Is this what you call tact?
I swear you're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back
So let's end this call,
And end this conversation
There's nothing worse
(That's right he said, that's right he said it)
I swear, you have no idea
The jealousy that became me thinking
(That's right he said)
That you always had it way too easy

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's just what anyone would do
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's something unforgivable

Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve

Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve

There's No I In Team

This song is a response to Brand New's song "Seventy Times 7." Jessie Lacey of Brand New's girlfriend cheated on him with John Nolan of Taking Back Sunday. John called Jessie to tell him and Jessie said, "Is that what you call tact? You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back. So let's end this call, and end this conversation." That's why these lyrics are in both of the songs. The two have now made up and are friends again and even perform these two songs together.

Cute Without The E (Cut from the Team) Lyrics

Your lipstick, his collar don't bother Angel
I know exactly what goes on

When everything you'll get is
Everything that you've wanted, princess
well which would you prefer
My finger on the trigger, or
(Meet face down, down across your floor)
My face down, down across your floor
(Meet face down, down across your floor)
Well just so long as this thing is loaded

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin',
This all was only wishful thinkin'

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin'
This all was only wishful thinkin'
Let's go

Don't bother trying to explain Angel
I know exactly what goes on when you're on and
How about I'm outside of your window
How about I'm outside of your window
Watchin' him keep the details covered
You're such a sucker for a sweet talker, yeah

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin'
This all was only wishful thinkin'

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin'
This all was only wishful thinkin'

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know

Why can't I feel anything
From anyone other than you?

And all of this was all your fault
And all of this

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
For this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
As something larger than life

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
For this simple reason is true
I just need to keep you in mind
As something larger than life

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
For this simple reason is true
I just need to keep you in mind
As something larger than life

Cute Without The E (Cut from the Team)

This is a song about a boy who finds out his girlfriend is cheating on him and is confronting her about it. He tells her that he already knows and tells her that he'll kill himself for her. He says he knows he should hate her but he doesn't.

The album title comes from a line in the chorus of this song: "And will you tell all your friends, you've got your gun to my head. This all was only wishful thinking."
