I so Hate Consequences (Live at Capitol Studios) lyrics

[Intro]
Alright, uh this song is called "I So Hate Consequences"
Um, being played acoustic
Never done before
And uh, the intro of this song is an excerpt from "Life After Death and Taxes"
Both songs are from our fourth album, Mmhmm

[Bridge]
Never forget
There's life after death and taxes
And forgiveness comes
And all of the rest, it passes away

[Refrain]
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

[Verse 1]
So here I sit looking at the traffic lights
The red extinguishes the hope the green ignites
I wanna run away, I wanna ditch my life
'Cause all of my mistakes keep me awake at night

[Pre-Chorus]
And after all of my alibis desert me
I just want to get by, I don't want nothing to hurt me
I had no idea where my head was at
If my heart says I'm sorry, can we leave it at that?
Because I just want for all of this to end
[Chorus]
And I so hate consequences
Running from You is what is my best defense is
Hate these 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 want to deal with that

[Refrain]
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

[Verse 2]
It just hit me this is more then just a set back
And when you spelled it out, I guess I didn't get that
And every trace of momentum is gone
This isn't turning out the way I want

[Pre-Chorus]
And after all of my alibis desert me
I just wanna get by, I don't want nothing to hurt me
I had no idea where my head was at
If my heart says I'm sorry, can we leave it at that?
Because I just want for all of this to end
[Chorus]
And I so hate consequences
And running from You is what is my best defense is
Consequences
God, don't make me face up to this
And I so hate consequences
And running from You is what my best defense is
'Cause I know that I let You down
And I don't want to deal with that

[Outro]
And I spent all last night tearing down
Every stoplight and stop sign in this town
Now I think there might be no way to stop me now
I'll get away despite the fact I'm so weighed down, oh
The fact I'm so weighed down, oh
