Blue October - Breakfast After 10 Lyrics






White kitchen walls with a thousand windows
Turn on Winston in the den
And I'm still asleep but I can hear the piano
When you make breakfast after 10
And I smell the coffee on your fingers
I still smell the perfume in the bed
The crushed linen roses on everything
And you're still inside my head

You gotta make her know how it feels to miss you
Let her know you're swapping sides
You're not the one with all the problems
You're the one with all the pride

So just pick your head up boy, and
Walk away
Walk the coolest walk that you know
Cause in a month or two she'll call you
You gotta hang up the phone

I hope she knows I've got this memory
That won't ever seem to break or bend
A thick lock & sheet rock is on my windows in the kitchen
I don't think I'll ever take em' down again

And I've learned a lot from all these break ups and make ups
And fuck ups and fake ups
Things that I wish you could comprehend yeah, comprehend
But for now I'll lace up
these wingtip shoes, boys
And I'll go have breakfast with my good friends

You got to make her know how it feels to miss you
You got to let her know you're swapping sides
You're not the one with all the problems
You're the one with all the pride

You got to make her know how it feels to miss you
Let her know you're swapping spit
You're not the one with all the problems
She's the one that's full of shit

So just pick your head up, boys and
Walk away
Walk the coolest walk that you know
In a month or two she'll call you
You got to
Hang up the phone...

    Thanks for posting the lyric songs some of the Blue October Songs are hard to find. I'm like you I love all their songs , I can relate to every song they have ever sung. Justin sings from his heart and hes not afraid to open up his soul. His songs have helped me through alot in my life.

  21. W.... K....

    I could never say that I have a favorite Blue October song, because I love every single thing they have done. However, there are some songs I listen to more than others. This is definitely one of them. Such a bluesy feel with a little angst. Incredible song. Incredible band. I can't wait to see them live again!

    W.... K....

    William Kelley I agree. How can you pick a favorite? If I hadn't been introduced to their music with this particular version of "Breakfast After Ten", I couldn't either.

    W.... K....

    Ive seen them twice, I only wish it was closer to 2005 that I saw them instead of 2016, still can't wait for a chance to see them again

  22. N.... ....

    learn to make sea puns.

  23. V.... ....

    learn to write good

    V.... ....

    Victoria learn to get a life. hiding behind a screen making shitty comments doesn't make you cool or important

    V.... ....

    eatmy shorts get em!

    V.... ....

    Victoria how about You enjoy the damn song

    V.... ....

    this...this was a joke from when the open book tour started

  24. N.... ....

    and bad to think this is good.. Learn to good music

  25. N.... ....

    youre pretty stupid

  26. K.... ....

    You're pretty stupid.

  27. N.... ....

    this song is pretty stupid

    N.... ....

    I love this song... But I also agree with you. That first line is silly and I'm pretty sure the writer shares this sentiment. It's definitely a look at the mind of a heart-broken 20-something guy. Justin writes visually, even if it doesn't always make sense.

  28. b.... ....

    This song is so powerful right now! I feel like I can relate to Blue October in any situation.

  29. T.... ....

    best song in the universe

  30. D.... ....

    AMAZING SONG. AMAZING.

  31. s.... ....

    love this song!
