Good Intentions by Three%Hero Lyrics

It's not my intention to keep you here forever
But I'll see you on your birthday when you're getting older
And I'll be at your wedding
That could have been me you're kissing
And isn't this the perfect time to tell you all how I feel?
I'll shorten my speech and say that I'm not sorry
You're always a burden
You're sad this is working
You're always a burden

This is my recital - just a little too late
Yeah yeah
I spent too much time thinking of what to say
And not saying what I think
It's time to vent
Time to get this off my chest

I think it's time to speak my mind now
Open my mouth and let this go
But you don't wanna hear what I think
So I'll stick to what I know
I've got a reputation to protect
And another to destroy
So this is my last chance to break you
Before you go on your own
This is my recital - just a little too late
Yeah yeah
I spent too much time thinking of what to say
And not saying what I think
It's time to vent
Time to get this off my chest

I think about this all the time
If I could find the words to rhyme
I'd tell about our destined future
In unconventional sentence structure
Blinded by the foresight and the fact that we were never right
This is not the end of us but it's the end of this discussion

This is my recital - just a little too late
Yeah yeah

These hors d'oeuvres taste like regret
As I stare from across the room
At you in our white dress that accentuates your breasts
Watching as you talk and mingle with your guests
Cuz that could have been me
That could have been me
That could have been me that you're standing there with
Giving awkward hugs to relatives you didn't know existed
This watered-down in expensive crystal stemware
Seems odd and out of place, quite like me
Cuz I'm not up there with you
Reciting vows and saying, 'I do."
That should have been me you're kissing
