Scattered
Green Day · The Studio Albums 1990-2009 [2012]
Well I've got some scattered pictures lying on my bedroom floor
Reminds me of the times we've shared
Makes me wish that you were there
'Cause now it's seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life
Well all the songs have been erased
Guess I've learned from mistakes
Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
Well loose ends tied in knots leaving a lump down in my throat
Well gagging on a souvenir
Lodged to fill another year
We'll drag it on and on until my skin is ripped to shreds
Well leaving myself open wide
Living out a sacrifice
Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
If you got no one
And you got no place to go
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
I've got some scattered pictures lying on my bedroom floor
Reminds me of the times we've shared
Makes me wish that you were there
'Cause now it's seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life
Well all the songs have been erased
Guess I've learned from mistakes
Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
Reminds me of the times we've shared
Makes me wish that you were there
'Cause now it's seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life
Well all the songs have been erased
Guess I've learned from mistakes
Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
Well loose ends tied in knots leaving a lump down in my throat
Well gagging on a souvenir
Lodged to fill another year
We'll drag it on and on until my skin is ripped to shreds
Well leaving myself open wide
Living out a sacrifice
Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
If you got no one
And you got no place to go
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
I've got some scattered pictures lying on my bedroom floor
Reminds me of the times we've shared
Makes me wish that you were there
'Cause now it's seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life
Well all the songs have been erased
Guess I've learned from mistakes
Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
