Violins Lyrics - Yellowcard

I am just another fool, and I have to, keep telling myself that 

I am just a hypocrit, and I have to, keep calling you one 

And I forgot to bite my tongue, and* my assumption, was* the mother of all mistakes 

So I assume the role, open my mouth, and clumsy words escape 

So why you, wanna to be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away 

I awake with your replacement, a bottle in my grasp, in an unfamiliar place 

Because you put me out, the butt of a sick joke, into this ashtray life 

As you come and go, and* I forgot to service you, and we broke down 

And you can't live with my mistakes, so* I assume false grace 

Open my arms and grasp at something true 

[chorus] 

How are you, how have you been, girl I miss you, wanna see you again 

So why you, wanna to be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away 

I bring out the worst in you, and* you try and let me know 

You bring out the worst in me, anxiety, anxiety 

I'm trying to let you go, you say I'm giving you the creeps 

So I assume the role, open my claws and grasp for your heart 

[repeat chorus] 

Into you like a mortal stake so vindictive 

Your love's slipping away 

Violins, into this ashtray life 

Violins, the butt of your sick joke 

Violins, I'm trying hard to let you go
