Death Cab For Cutie – Bad Reputation (Freddy Johnston Cover) lyrics

I know I've got a bad reputation,
And it isn't just talk, talk, talk.
If I could only give you everything,
You know I haven't got.

I couldn't have one conversation,
If it wasn't for the lies, lies, lies.
And still I ought to tell you everything,
'Till I close my eyes.

Suddenly I'm on the street.
Seven years disappear below my feet.
Been breaking down.
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?

Suddenly I'm down in Herald's Square,
Looking in the crowd, your face is everywhere.
Been turning around.
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?

Don't try to be an inspiriation,
Just wasting your time, time, time.
You know about the best I'll ever be.
I see it in your eyes.

I know I've got a bad reputation,
And it isn't just talk, talk, talk.
If I could only give you everything,
You know I haven't got.

Suddenly I'm on the street.
Seven years disappear below my feet.
Been breaking down.
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?

Suddenly I'm in another place,
Looking in the crowd, I think I see your face.
Been turning around.
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?

Don't you think I've heard the talk?
Nobody's going to tell me who to love.
Been breaking down.
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?

Suddenly I'm down in Herald's Square,
Looking in the crowd, your face is everywhere.
Been turning around.
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
I'm just breaking down, down, down, down, down.
Been breaking down, down, down, down, down.
Been breaking down, down, down, down, down.
Been breaking down, down, down, down, down.
