Taking Back Sunday
Where My Mouth Is
[Verse 1]
See, it's not like I didn't mean what I said
When I said "I'll put my money where my mouth is"
And I put my money where my mouth was
Until I couldn't breathe through my nose
And now I'm staring at the floor
Where my second life just ended
Where I lost not one, but two friends
[Chorus 1]
Yeah, I had it all
Sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away
Just to prove that I could
I put my money where my mouth is
[Verse 2]
See, I recall quite perfectly who I was
Both before and after the drugs
Both before and after the drugs
[Pre-Chorus]
I put my money where my mouth is
I put my money where my mouth was
I got a strong will, just weak hands
And I don't know what to do
With either one of them
[Chorus 1]
Yeah, I had it all
Sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away (threw it away)
Just to prove that I could
Just to prove that I could
I put my money where my mouth is
I put my money where my mouth is
I put my money where my mouth is
[Bridge]
Your knight in shining armor
Of a mother and a father
You had everything
Everything you needed
And it was made crystal clear
That would not change
[Chorus 2]
Yeah, I had it all
Sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away (why did you do it, why did you do it)
Just to prove that I could
Yeah, I had it all (why did you do it, why did you do it)
Yeah I had it good, so good
But I threw it away (why did you do it, why did you do it)
Just to prove that I could
I could
Just to prove that I could (why did you do it, why did you do it)
[Post-Chorus]
I put my money where my mouth is (why did you do it, why did you do it)
I put my money where my mouth is (why did you do it, why did you do it)
I put my money where my mouth is
[Outro]
Yeah I had it all
