Jack's Mannequin - I'm Ready Lyrics

Artist: Jack's Mannequin

Album: Everything In Transit

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Andrew Mcmahon

And today was a day just like any other

I'm on the verge, I'm on the verge
Unraveling with every word
With every word you say, make me believe
That I won't feel your tires on the street
As I'm finding the words, you're getting away

I come undone, oh yes, I do
Just think of all the thoughts wasted on you
And every word you say, say something sweet
'Cause all I taste is blood between my teeth
As I'm finding the words, you're getting away

Well, I'm ready, I'm ready to drop
Oh, I'm ready, I'm ready so don't stop
I'm ready so don't stop, keep pushing
I'm ready to fall, oh, I'm ready
I'm ready so don't call, I'm ready so don't call

I am aware, I've been misled
I disconnect my heart, my head
Don't wanna recognize when things go bad
The things that you'll accept
Except that I am finding the words, to say

I'm ready, I'm ready to drop
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm ready
I'm ready so don't stop
I'm ready so don't stop

I wake up to find it's another
Four aspirin' morning, and I dive in
I put on the same clothes I wore yesterday
When did society decide that we had to change
And wash a tee shirt after every individual use

If it's not dirty, I'm gonna wear it
I take the stairs to the car
And there's fog on the windows
(As I'm finding the words)
I need caffeine in my blood stream

I take caffeine in the blood stream
I grip the wheel and all at once I realize
(And you're getting away)
My life has become a boring pop song
And everyone's singing along

Well, I'm ready, to drop, well, I'm ready
I'm ready so don't stop, oh
Well, keep pushing, I'm ready to fall
Well, I'm ready, I'm ready so don't call
I'm ready so don't call, oh oh oh
