The Menzingers – I Don't Wanna Be An Asshole Anymore lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeeeeahhhhh!
Last Friday night I wasn't me
I was a still life trapped in eternity
I was the focal point out of focus, out of ink
And I've been wandering nightly
Through the garden of your heartache
Always making a mess, always stumbling out the door
But, I don't wanna be an asshole anymore

[Chorus]
Baby, baby I'll be good to you
I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
Baby, baby, I'll be good to you
Baby, baby, I'll be good to you

[Verse 2]
Another night, I devoured the sun
And plunged myself into the depths of oblivion
Yeah somewhere along the way I found why
Feels damn good just to bleed sometimes
But all I ever wanted was to make things right
The years of idleness and spite
I push my emotions off a bridge
After taking them hostage with a shotgun
Now they're somewhere treading water
Somewhere lost inside the man that I'm not
But I don't wanna be an asshole anymore

[Chorus]
Baby, baby I'll be good to you
I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
Baby, baby, I'll be good to you
I'll be good to you, I'll be good, I'll be good, I'll be good

[Verse 3]
I won't lie no more about where I've been
And I won't pry no more
Over the people that you're hanging with
You're the only lover that I ever missed
Ever been hopelessly in love with
Look at this tangle of thorns
I don't wanna be an asshole anymore

[Outro]
Yeah, I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
Oh no, no, no
