Motion City Soundtrack's Can't Finish What You Started

Lyrics below:

Why can't you finish what you've started?
Why can't you try and understand?
It doesn't make a bit of difference if you start what you can't finish
Every story needs an ending, after all.

I think I've known it for a long time
Suffice to say, it's been a while
You're too afraid to face the outcome
Quite likely, you're a failure
It's a shitty thing to say, but hey man - the clock is ticking

I thought of all the things I'd like to say
(Whoohoo)
Cramped up and couldn't write a word all day
(Whoohoo)
I just waited for my world to fall apart
That's why I'll never finish anything I start

What fills the magic in the meantime?
I know its hard without a vice,
You need to find a new solution,
Adaptation or retribution,
If you truly do believe in something,
Somehow it all works out.

I thought of all the things I'd like to say
(Whoohoo)
Cramped up and couldn't write a word all day
(Whoohoo)
I just waited for my world to fall apart
That's why I'll never finish anything I start

I'm completely bored
With every single word
And nothing ever works
And this juvenile search
Is systematically revealing to me
That I need a new approach

I thought of all the things I'd like to say
(Whoohoo)
Cramped up and couldn't write a word all day
(Whoohoo)
I just waited for my world to fall apart
That's why I'll never finish anything I...

So sick of all the things I'm trying to say
(Whoohoo)
Cramped up and couldn't write a word all day
(Whoohoo)
I just waited for my world to fall apart
That's why I'll never finish anything I...

  • well, i just found out why i never finish my many, many projects. now i can go kill myself because, yes, i am a fucking coward loser.

  • all ended over a promise to stay sober, the wave at the roundabout always in doubt, the game is over, all bets are void, got a new lover, need to avoid, the pain in my chest just doesn't get less and I'm tired of being toyed with, I don't need the stress
