Girl, pay me no attention

Written and performed by Sean Selig McMahon

girl, pay me no attention

cause my soul's sufferin misdirection

all my failings need no mention

girl, my heart needs redemption.

oh i've been writing love stories all day

if you want romance, if you want glory, don't stay

im always writing about the men who live with scars

all the ladies who left em to go be stars

oh i swear i'm gonna make a movie one day

about the kind of love story that burns out then fades

the kind where a woman can't live with the man she loves

cuz the man himself he's too drunk to even know what he does to her

you can call me bitter, even jaded, alright

a man just gets a little tired of waiting at night

you coming home, apologizing, and crawling back into bed

the clockface been watching and it's not so easily misled.

i suppose my stories are just fiction that i write

in my head, my jealous head, false depictions of my life.

talk to me when im not so far out of my mind,

my heart will start beating again it's just a matter of time.

ill just take it easy, my lover hold on tight

i know its not what we thought but baby, maybe it's right

i'm a first rate half-baked genuine waste of time

but ask again tomorrow and i'll probably just say i'm fine, do you mind

i take you through the undo, we will just have to make do with our time

stick with me woman, i'm a slow learner but i could turn out alright.

maybe i'll be up, be down in a minute in the blink of an eye

but feelings are a feeling and a choice is a choice and love just makes you cry
