Riot Gear

I read you letters,
then i threw them in the bin.
'Cause they don't mean anything.
You said absence makes the heart grew
(heart grew) fonder.
Every Friday night, when you're driving in your car,
through the streets of suburbia,
when you're driving in your car,
do you think of him and her?

I'd wait all my life,
but I know you just won't care.
These songs I write,
they don't linger in your head.
All of my bad points make me think of you tonight.
The nasty things you say,
well, by me, they're alright.


I've been getting so drunk,
watching my friends throwing up in the pub.
I've been wondering where you are.
Where are you?
Where are you?
I've been walking through the woods, in the dark, like we used to do.
I've been holding you in my arms, holding back.
Why are you holding back?

I'd wait all my life,
but I know you just won't care.
These songs I write,
they don't linger in your head.
All of my bad points make me think of you tonight.
The nasty things you say,
well, by me, they're alright.
