Description
This song would be great for the show MTV's "Skins," because it is all about social climbing and the drama that comes with doing things for the wrong reasons. It touched on the fact that true love doesn't sneak around and tap you on the shoulder, it knocks you off your feet. (MTV.com has recently written a blog on our band too! http://blog.mtvmusic.com/2010/10/14/can-we-do-laundry-at-your-house/#more-4050)
Lyrics
When you run into love, it don't tap you on the shoulder it knocks you off your feet. Well your back must ache, from climbing your way up the ladder babe. She's not ashamed at all, that girl got famous under covers dropping names. Its a truth thats hard to swallow, not some cross to bear. I'm just a hopeless fool with a broken smile, wearing my heart like a fashion style. That girl is just bad news, covered in tattoos. She'll lie through her teeth just to bite into something sweet. And Im amazed, I played along until I learned your game. That's why I built these walls, so high that no one could destroy my world again. Its a truth that's hard to swallow, watch me gasp for air. When shes whispers, they all follow. It's bad enough she's fooling everyone. What a shame you turned out to be a back stabbing small town celebrity. When your 15 is up and your fame is gone, I'm hoping someday you'll sing along. When you run into love, it don't tap you on the shoulder it knocks you off your feet.
