Foo Fighters - Arlandria lyrics

Ain't that the way it always starts
A simple round of conversation
Became a shameful equation
I flipped you 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 shake
I want to 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
My sweet Virginia
I'm the same as I was in your heart

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
My sweet Virginia, oh, God
You gotta make it stop
