Avid Athlete

Original

I got a bad attitude that I can't lose

Try to improve our communication

But after noon, after you

Now I've lost my motivation

'Cause you were the one

Who was always supposed to be there for me

(I end up dealing alone)

You were never ever really truly there for me

(But I'll still get on the phone)

Why don't you make me a real offer?

I'm sure you can make it look real good

Lay your life down on the altar

Hold your hand, say I knew you would

All of the memories are folding in

One on top of another

Don't sacrifice your truth

You'll never be me and I don't want to be you

She said you were an avid athlete

Nowadays you won't walk up your street

She said you were an avid athlete

But these days you can't be bothered to meet

I got a bad attitude that I can't choose

You're all over the place, and I'm over you

It's all through now and not too soon

I'm no longer involved in the things you do

'Cause you were the one who was always changing the plans with me

(Last minute leaving me 'lone)

And you were the one who took all of our feelings and ran from me

(Blamin' me for what you'd done)

Why don't you make me a real offer?

I'm sure you can make it look real good

Lay your life down on the altar

Hold your hand, say I knew you would

All of the memories are folding in

One on top of another

Don't sacrifice your truth

You'll never be me, and I don't want to be you

She said you were an avid athlete

Nowadays you won't walk up your street

She said you were an avid athlete

But these days you can't be bothered to meet

Though once you were an avid athlete

Now you've finally got nobody to beat

Not even me

Not even me
