Love held up a mirror
Who I am is what I got
Far more than a feeling
Love wasn't what I thought, hm
The real thing wasn't what I got, no
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Of being so in love
Conditions of just, just, just a punk
Sour, love sick
Spit out, running
Too tripped up on loose ends
You're not what I thought
Out of character
Guess I played the part
Of being so in love
Conditions of who I really was
Past summer now
You're still not around
Can't go on without
Conditions of just, just, just a punk
Oh, what are we now
Pain getting too loud
Oh, turn it all down
Wrapped in plastic
Love ain't what I thought it was
Far beyond my selfish touch
Ain't it tragic
Summer took it out of me
Love ain't what I thought it'd be
Heartbreaker by nature
Chasing a feeling 'til you cut me down
You make it look easy
Getting off the ground, so
Tell me what you
Can't go on without
Perceptions of what I really want
Wrapped in plastic
Love ain't what I thought it was
Far beyond my selfish touch
Ain't it tragic
Summer took it out of me
Love ain't what I thought it'd be
You're not what I thought
Out of character
Guess I played the part
Of being so in Love
Conditions of who I really was
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Of being so in love
Conditions of just, just, just a punk
Ain't it tragic
Summer took it out of me
Love ain't what I thought it'd be
Wrapped in plastic
Love ain't what I thought it was
Far beyond my selfish touch
Ain't it tragic
Summer took it out of me
Love ain't what I thought it'd be
Ain't it tragic
Summer took it out of me
Love ain't what I thought it'd be
