Track Lyrics

Never Meant Lyrics

[Intro]

Are we ready? (I am ready)

We- We can keep that one, right?

Ready?

One, two

One, two, three

[Verse 1]

Let's just forget everything said

And everything we did

Best friends and better halves

Goodbyes

And the autumn night when we realized

We were falling out of love

[Refrain]

(There were some things that were said that weren't meant)

(There were some things that were said—) But we never did

[Verse 2]

Not to be overly (Overly)

Dramatic

I just think it's best

'Cause you can't miss what you forget

So, let's just pretend

Everything and anything

Between you and me

Was never meant

[Outro]

Was never meant

Honestly? Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Honestly, I can't remember (Teen dreams)

All my teenage feelings and the meanings

They seemed too see-through to be true

All the who's are there

But the why's (But the why's)

The why's are unclear (Are unclear)

[Verse 2]

Picture this:

The long awaited sickening kiss

How does it feel (Explain) to know (How)

We've re-written history (These things change)

Despite the complicated beginning to all of this

Honestly?

Intro (live at The Blind Pig, Champaign, IL, 1997) Lyrics

[Intro]

Hello, we're called American Football

We in tune, Steve?

[Instrumental]

But the Regrets Are Killing Me (4‐track album prep, 1999) Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Fools leave

Too soon

Built to

Fill roles

And fall

Standing alone again

Distant and

Dissatisfied

[Verse 2]

These four years

And how we say goodbye

To these four years

A long goodbye

With mixed emotions

Just fragments of

Another life (another life)

[Outro]

Not dead

Yet

But the regrets (Are killing me)

But the regrets
