When I was 16
I wanted a car so you’d notice me
And ask for my heart but soon I see
It wasn’t working
It wasn’t working
Then at 22
I smoked a cigarette to look like you
Did everything they said that I shouldn’t do
It wasn’t working
It wasn’t working
After all the smoke has cleared
You and I are standing here
All that motions just a waste of time
Like a bottle without any wine
It was just a mask we hid behind
But I know it’s true
Cause I wanted you but you’re already mine
Now I’m in your room
Making the mistakes that I used to
Hoping for a girl to come to you
It isn’t working
It isn’t working
After all the smoke has cleared
You and I are standing here
All that motions just a waste of time
Like a bottle without any wine
It was just a mask we hid behind
But I know it’s true
Cause I wanted you but you’re already mine
Ohh
I could take my almost loves
And line them in a row
And shoot them down one by one
Like the Alamo
You could be the last one standing after the gun show
If only you had told me
You loved my long ago
Yeah all that motions just a waste of time
Like a bottle without any wine
It was just a mask we hid behind
But I know it’s true
Yeah I know it’s true
Yeah I know it’s true
Cause I wanted you but you’re already mine
