Ain't that the way it always starts,
A simple round of conversation,
Became a shameful equation,
I flipped to station to station

Hey. Don't go and turn the other way,
Don't say there's nothin' more to say,
Come on hear me out,
Hush, hush, settle down,
Button up, don't make a sound,
Shame, shame, go away,
Come again some other day


You used to say I couldn't save you enough,
So I've been savin' it up, I started savin' it up,
And when you said I couldn't give you enough,
I started givin' you up, I started givin' you up
You are not me, Arlandria, Arlandria
You and what army, Arlandria, Arlandria?
Oh, God you gotta make it stop

Chase...all of those memories away,
Save them all for another day,
Don't you remember it was rain that drowned you,

Wait! I wanna see if you can change,
I wanna keep all I can take, I feel much better now,
Use me up, spit me out,
Let me be your hand-me-down,
Fame, fame, go away, come again some other day


You used to say I couldn't save you enough,
So I've been savin' it up, I started savin' it up,
And when you said I couldn't give you enough,
I started givin' you up, I started givin' you up
You are not me, Arlandria, Arlandria
You and what army, Arlandria, Arlandria?
Oh, God you gotta make it stop

My sweet Virginia, I'm the same as I was in your arms x2

Shame, shame go away,
come again some other day
Memories keep haunting me
Help me chase them all away
Hush, now settle down,
Button up, don't make a sound
Close your eyes, turn around
Help me burn this to the ground
Come now, take the blame, that's okay, I'll play the game
I don't care, it's all the same, watch it all go up in flames,
Use me up, spit me out,
Let me be your hand-me-down
Fame, fame, go away, come again some other day


You used to say I couldn't save you enough,
So I've been savin' it up, I started savin' it up,
And when you said I couldn't give you enough,
I started givin' you up, I started givin' you up
You are not me, Arlandria, Arlandria
You and what army, Arlandria, Arlandria?
Oh, God you gotta make it stop

My sweet Virginia, oh, God you gotta make it stop x2
