The Used - Watered Down


In my eyes, closed and jaded it's no surprise
The lights have faded, I always walk away
You'll always hear me say; "I don't need this"

I've been given such a gift
Shame to take advantage of it
Wanted, wasting leaves you wanting more
Be careful what you're wishing for
Nothing that I can hold on to with my broken hands
I'm not thinking that I should, anyway
So I leave holding up, can't, don't care what you say
'Cause it makes no difference if I throw it away
Yeah, it makes no difference if I throw it away 

Now, my days, are feeling numbered
This sad cliché,
I'm hiding under this spider web of dreams
I'm stuck here as it seems to be breaking

Shining brighter than you burn
Something that I would never learn
I could never lay this curse on you
Cursing the days when there's

Nothing that I can hold on to with my broken hands
I'm not thinking that I should, anyway
So I leave holding up, can't, don't care what you say
'Cause it makes no difference if I throw it away
'Cause it makes no difference
Yeah, it makes no difference if I throw it away
It makes no difference
It makes no difference if I throw it away
Makes no difference if I throw it away

It all just ends up tasting watered down
[Standing here, so complicated]
And everyone has found an easy way out
An easy way out
It all just ends up tasting watered down
[Instead of being so complicated]
And everyone has found an easy way out
An easy way out

Nothing that I can hold on to with my broken hands
I'm not thinking that I should, anyway
So I leave holding up, can't, don't care what you say
'Cause it makes no difference if I throw it away
'Cause it makes no difference
Yeah, it makes no difference if I throw it away
It makes no difference
It makes no difference if I throw it away
Yeah, it no difference if I throw it away

Get out of town by sundown
