Transparent Comparisons Songtext
von Regular Oatmeal

I′ve been making unfair comparisons
Since the moment that I first saw you again
You could never compare to my overactive imagination

You've been staring straight through me
I can hear it in every word that you speak
With your opaque stares and frustrated glares
All cast in my direction

You′ve been staring straight through me
I can hear it in every word that you speak
With your opaque stares and frustrated glares
All cast in my direction


Your regrets are just a desperate grasp at a better past
And your remorse it will get you nowhere
It has gotten you nowhere

And your regrets are just a shameful attempt at a better past
And your remorse it will get you nowhere
It has gotten you nowhere

And my regrets are just shameful attempt at a cover up
Of who I was and what I put forward and what I put forward
And my regrets are just a desperate at a better past
And my remorse is pulling me backwards
It's pulling me backwards
Pulling me backwards
