"If You Had A Bad Time..." lyrics - ALKALINE TRIO

ALKALINE TRIO
"If You Had A Bad Time..."

If you had a bad time
At one of my parties
Well I wouldn't expect to be seeing you soon
And that's fine

You have to know what and why
Those things make you happy
You have to know that a second guess
Ain't worth a try

Just some words of advice
Maybe you've heard them before but here goes
Just be true to yourself
If it lands you in hell, well at least now you know

Loud and clear is your heart
Big and bright are the places you might someday go
With one million things holding you down
Why you're one of those things, I don't know

No big deal, gotta go

If you're up to your ears
In blood, sweat, and wasted years
I'm hoping you're going to open your throat
And just scream

You have to know who and why
Which ones miss you when you die
You have to know that a second guess
Ain't worth the salt in your eyes

Just some words of advice
Maybe you've heard them before but here goes
Just be true to yourself
If it lands you in hell, well at least now you know

Loud and clear is your heart
Big and bright are the places you might someday go
With one million things holding you down
Why you're one of those things, I don't know

No big deal

It just sits on my shoulders, you're breaking my neck
We get crazy with age, now you're under my bed
And it s dark all the time

Just some words of advice
Maybe you've heard them before but here goes
Just be true to yourself
If it lands you in hell, well at least now you know

Loud and clear is your heart
Big and bright are the places you might someday go
With one million things holding you down
Why you're one of those things, I don't know

No big deal, here I go
