Connect the Dots

connect the dots - new found glory
it was my persistence, wasn't it
a lack of trust you won't admit
i'll never settle now on before
i wrote a thousand songs because of it
curse my choices, bite my lip
a hundred ripped up notes
i'm living with your ghost
this is a cold hard punch in the chest
this is the worst, the worst that it gets
feels like a cheap shot right to your jaw
a perfect time for you to take what you came here for
i can't connect the dots
won't connect them to you anymore
it was my lack of charm wasn't it
or the guilt i wrap around my neck
i'm running out of ways to move on
it's my heart that burns of wickedness
i stole your youth and ran with it
i'm hearing on repeat, the sounds of defeat
a cold hard punch in the chest
this is the worst, the worst that it gets
feels like a cheap shot right to your jaw
a perfect time for you to take what you came here for
i can't connect the dots
won't connect them to you anymore
and this all would've worked if i just would've been open
life cuts deep enough when the trust is broken
we've gone far enough
you're too late for us
you can't be, can't be over it
a cold hard punch in the chest
this is the worst, the worst that it gets
feels like a cheap shot right to your jaw
a perfect time for you to take what you came here for
it was my persistence, wasn't it
a lack of trust you won't admit
i'll never settle now or before
it's my heart that burns of wickedness
i stole your youth and ran with it
it's time for you to take what you came here for
i can't connect the dots
won't connect them to you--
i can't connect the dots
won't connect them to you anymore
