I So Hate Consequences - Relient K

and i'm good, good, good to go
i'm good, good, good to go
i gotta get away, get away
from all of my mistakes
and i'm good, good, good to go
i'm good, good, good to go
i gotta get away, get away
from all of my mistakes

so here i sit, looking at the traffic lights
the red extinguishes the hope that the green ignites
i want to run away, i want to ditch my life
'cause all of my mistakes leave me awake at night

and after all of my alibis desert me
i just wanna get by, don't want nothin to hurt me
and i had no idea where my head was at
but if my heart says i'm sorry, can we leave it at that?
because i just want for all of this to end

and i so hate consequences
running from You is what my best defense is
oh, consequences
God, don't make me face up to this
and i so hate consequences
running from You is what my best defense is
'cause i know that i let You down,
and i don't wanna deal with that

and i'm good, good, good to go
and i'm good, good, good to go
gotta get away, get away
from all of my mistakes

it just now hit me this is more than just a set back
and the way You spelled it out, well i guess i didn't get that
every trace of momentum was gone
and this isn't turning out the way i want

and after my alibis desert me
i just wanna get by, i don't want nothin to hurt me
and i had no idea where my head was at
but if my heart says i'm sorry, can we leave it at that?
because i just want for all of this to end

and i so hate consequences,
running from You is what my best defense is
oh, consequences
God don't make me face up to this
and i so hate consequences,
running from You is what my best defense is
'cause i know that i let You down
and i don't wanna deal with that

and i spent all last night tearing down
every stop light and stop sign in this town
and now i think there might be no way to stop me now
i'll get away despite the fact i'm slowing down
and all of my escapes have been exhausted
i thought i had a way but then i lost it
and my resistance was once much stronger
but now i can't go on with this much longer

when i got tired of running from You
i stopped right there to catch my breath
and Your words, they caught my ears
You said, "I miss you, son. come home"
and my sins, they watched me leave
and in my heart i still believe
the love You felt for me was mine,
the love i'd wished for all this time
and when the doors were closed
i heard no "i told you so's"
You said the words i knew You knew
oh God, oh God i needed You.
God all this time, i needed You
i needed You.

and i so hate consequences
running from you is what my best defense is
i hate these consequences,
cause I know that i let you down
and I don't wanna deal with that.
