Yellowcard - Rough Draft Lyrics
1-2-3-4
Like a Saturday night I'll be gone
Like a Saturday night I'll be gone
before you knew that I was there
So you wrote it down
I'm supposed to care
Even though it's never there
Sorry if I'm not prepared
Is it hard to see the things you substitute
For me and all my thoughts of you
It's eating me alive to leave you
Maybe it's childish and maybe it's wrong
But so is your blank stare in lieu of this song
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be wrong
You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be wrong
You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song
I'm breathing in your skin tonight
Quiet is my loudest cry
Wouldn't wanna wake the eyes that make me melt inside
And if it's healthier to leave you be
may a sickness come and set me free
Kill me while I still believe that you were meant for me
I'm finding my own words, my own little stage
my own epic drama, my own scripted page
I'll send you the rough draft, I'll seal it with tears
Maybe you'll read it and I'll reappear
From the start it was shaky and the characters rash,
A nice setting for heartache where emotions come last
All I have deep inside, to overcome this desire
are friendly intentions and fair-weather smiles
And I don't wanna be, don't wanna be wrong
you're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be wrong
You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song
Like Saturday night I'll be gone
Like Saturday night I'll be gone
Like Saturday night I'll be gone
Like Saturday night I'll be gone before you knew that I was there

Yellowcard Rough Draft Comments
I miss them :'( I would like to see them in my country but it´s imposible because they don´t play
10 years ago i was watching this video, and here i am rewatching good ol shit memories after a long period of time.
Who’s here to relieve their gradschool emo phase? 😂
This one takes me back. Always and forever one of my favorites.
8 days and this video will have been up for 10 years and I've been watching this since about year 3 of the video
sempre que escuto essa canção ela me traz paz e esperança 😎
makes them emotions get going
sempre que escuto essa música ela me traz um mundo novo e uma bela história valeu....
pra mim também
Loved what you wrote at the end 😭😭

Lukasz Baldyga because youve been hiding in the closet for too long fagboy
thank you yellow card for putting what i feel in words
Nefretti De Cunha they never fail
Hey guys, I'm seeing Yellowcard in October and would REALLLLLLLLLLLLLY REALLY like to hear them play this song, they haven't played it live since 2008 but if you could help me get #YCshouldplayRoughDraftonFallTour2014 I would really appreciate it. One girl starting a similar trend last year is what got them to play their song Paper Walls for the first time ever live on their Ocean Avenue Acoustic tour, so it can make a difference!
4everyellowcard shut up you dumb bitch
Monster G this was two years ago and it's a good song, chill fam
just such a beautiful song :')
Amazing
You almost get the impression that this song is from "Ocean Avenue"
And oh god, it is the best song ever.
and if its healthier to leave you be, may a sickness come and set me free, kill me while I still believe that you were meant for me

I've been listening to YC for a year and a half.. and I never discovered this song. I'm so glad I did now.
@5awajamal I miss her too and this song reminds me a lot of things we did together. I feel your pain man, don't worry you'll be better in a couple of days. Until then... spend times with friends and on things you like so you don't think of her.
