Pretty Angry Lyrics - Blues Traveler

I wish I drank tequila 

I wish I stayed up late 

But lately when the sandman comes 

You know I just can't wait 

No lately I can't wait 

And we packed up all your boxes 

It's all been hauled away 

I never stare at walls so bare 

'Cause something always stays 

Yeah, something of you stays 

And I wanna shout from my guitar 

Come out, come out wherever you are 

The joke is over open up your eyes 

A heart like yours it never dies 

And I found your keys behind your chair 

I still can see you sitting there 

This isn't funny don't fool around 

You let me go, you let me down 

And I guess I'm still pretty angry 

And I don't wanna be 

I don't know which was the bigger waste of time 

Missing you or wishing instead it was me 

I wish, I walked on water 

Pulling rabbits from my sleeve 

Guessing cards and saving everyone 

Oh, I wish I still believed 

Oh, I wish that I believed 

That I could also channel voices 

That I've endured the burning blade 

That I could make some of your choices 

I wish I weren't afraid 

Of those choices that you made 

Like I could give you what you need 

So ally ally oxen free 

The game is up and I give in 

So show yourself so that you can win 

Come claim your prize and I don't care 

I still can see you standing there 

How you could leave, how you could lie 

You cut me off in mid reply 

And I guess I'm still pretty angry 

And I don't wanna be 

I don't know which was the bigger waste of time 

Missing you or wishing instead it was me 

The will to win the urge to race 

I still can see it on your face 

Thought I'd keep up but only crashed 

I wasn't built to move that fast 

Thought I could match you stride for stride 

But I was on the other side 

And holding on to the safety rail 

With knuckles white complexion pale 

A cloud of dust and you were gone 

Thought I would catch you later on 

I limped behind your race was won 

But were you racing or on the run? 

How you enjoyed, you loved to drive 

And I'm destroyed 

'Cause I'm alive 

'Cause I'm alive 

And I guess I'm still pretty angry 

And I don't wanna be 

I don't know which was the bigger waste of time 

Missing you or wishing instead it was me 

I guess I'm still pretty angry 

I don't wanna be 

I don't know which was the bigger waste of time 

Missing you or wishing instead it was me
