Where My Mouth Is Songtext

von Taking Back Sunday

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

Yeah, I had it all
Was sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away
Well, just to prove that I could
I put my money where my mouth is

See, I recall quite perfectly who I was
Both before and after the drugs
Both before and after the drugs
"I'll 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

Yeah, I had it all
Was sitting on top of the world
But I 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

You're a 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

Yeah, I had it all
Was sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away
Yeah, just to prove that I could
Yeah, I had it all
Yeah, I had it good, so good
But I threw it away
Just to prove that I could, 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
Yeah, I had it all
