I wish somebody had told me before you did that night
On the balcony of some college friend's hideout
You nervously sipped a half-full glass of wine
'Steven, you're a good guy'
Now I stand on his roof, let the rain wash over me
Hear you talking too loudly, probably with him
Of all bad places, this must be the worst
I wish somebody'd told me long before that night
Now I just wanna scream the words right out
Of this godforsaken rooftop, paralyzed by sound
Don't know what to do, kill me or you
Erase my traces and come back brand-new
I wish somebody had told me how to pick a fight
I go after that shithead, punch him in my mind
I don't want the optimist to leave me behind
Standing by the drinks right in your sight
Now I just wanna scream the words right out
Of this godforsaken rooftop, paralyzed by sound
Don't know what to do, kill me or you
Erase my traces and come back brand-new
