lyrics

I know I've been gone for a while
I know it's been hard to keep the stars aligned
Now all the fingers point my way
Don't even check the mail these days
Wish I could've proved you wrong

I know everything was broken from the start
Listened only to my brain and never to your heart
Now all the boys are sending out
Messages I'm selling out
I can't even say they're wrong, 'cause

Oh, it's too late
Oh, it's too late
'Cause I'm the king of starry-eyed naivete and compromise
I'm the king of all the sellouts

I know I've been gone for a while
I know it's been hard to keep the stars aligned
But all the boys are sending out
Messages I'm selling out
I can't even say they're wrong

about

Building Rockets Austin, Texas

Building Rockets is occasionally a band and occasionally a bedroom recording project.

It sounds a little like The Pixies and Wilco covering Fountains of Wayne songs while “Abbey Road” plays in the background.
