Nothing Seeker

The Church · Forget Yourself [2004]

I'm sorry if I come across as thoughtless

I'm happy if I come across at all

It's useless when the ending becomes endless

I'm early 'cause there's nowhere else to go

I hope you don't think that I'm angry

I hope you don't think that I'm wrong

I hope you don't think that I'm frightened

I hope you think that I belong

It's funny that I seem to be so careless

I'm certain that it's easy to be sure

It's always when the night has become outrageous

It's not as though we ever lived before

I hope you don't think that I'm brutal

I hope you don't think that I'm dumb

I hope you don't think that I'm different

I hope you think that I'm welcome

I'm sorry if I come across as thoughtless

I'm happy if I come across at all

It's useless when the ending becomes endless

I love you 'cause there's nowhere else to go
