The Ongoing Concept – Sidelines lyrics

Sidelines, you are the worst
I've hated you all of these years
I never got a chance to be on your team
Day after day, year after year
I saw them come, I saw them go
Through it all we stayed the same
Through it all we stayed the same
You say, "We're too close to be anything more"
And I say, "How would you know?"

You think you know me, you think you know me
You think you know me way too well
You think you know me, you think you know me
You think you know me way too well for love

Dreams, you are the worst
I've hated you all of these nights
I tell everyone that I know
"I don't remember a single one"
But the truth is, I've had the same dream all of these nights
And it won't ever go away, it won't ever go away
Please, go away

You think you know me, you think you know me
You think you know me way too well
You think you know me, you think you know me
You think you know me way too well for love

You think you know me when you know my favorite bands, and who my favorite singer is
You think you know me when you know what time I go to bed, because work starts early
You think you know me when you call me in the middle of the night
And know I'll answer because I always do

You think you know me, but you don't
'Cause if you did then you'd know
You haven't seen nothin' yet
You haven't seen nothin' yet
You haven't seen nothin' yet

I don't wanna, I don't wanna be left on the sidelines
I don't wanna, I don't wanna be left on the sidelines
You say, "We're too close to be anything more"
But how would you know, how would you know
When you've only seen me on the sidelines?

You think you know me, you think you know me
You think you know me way too well
You think you know me, you think you know me
You think you know me way too well for love

You haven't seen nothin' yet
You haven't seen nothin' yet
You haven't seen nothin' yet
You haven't seen nothin' yet
