(Fifty)
Yeah, something new, 50
Shorty all that, yeah yeah Shorty all that
Gotta go hard yeah watch me switch up the format
Bus, a train, a plane, an exotic spot on a yacht
I spare no expense I want you here on top
Think big, big bread, big Bentley, big crib, big moves
I'm the most notorious since Big
If you want it you got it you spot it you tell me to get it you good.
Holding it down like I should, from Beverly Hills to the hood
This picture is perfect I'm painting I'm pushin my pen
To capture a portrait a moment in time with a friend
To get you the message I really want you to win
Girl if it's up to me it's you and I till the end.
(El)
See I know you got agendas, I remember
That you're the scheduled type of lady
But I've been patient, I need rotation
To the top of your list, call me crazy.
Don't ask me how, I'm looking at a few days from now
I need commitment cuz this don't make sense
How you got me looking right now
I might take the train, leave here on a plane, even in the rain, I'ma get this message to you
What I'm delivering is so much better when
You get it in person, so what I'm trying to do is
Switch up the format, let me come to where you're at.
Let's switch up the format, I can't wait another day
Switch up the format, let me come to where you're at.
Let's switch up the format girl, I can't wait another day to see you...
Listen I'ma need an e-mail, confirmation
Text me with the details, exact location
Press "Send" don't move (why) cuz I'm in route to where you at...

You got an appointment with destiny

I'm running, I'm coming, I'm loving, let me switch it up baby
So far from me
Stands a man known as disease
He's shaking all the hands of the people that he meets
(Chorus)
And now
you just dont see me anymore
I've been losing everything
You just dont see me anymore
I'll say goodbye
Since you left she's a mess
She regrets all the things
That she could have said but...
We fall asleep, never think about anything
We wake to the sound of a phone as it hits the ground
(Chorus)
And oh at the wake, at the wake
I will turn to see a face
Just a face, just a face
So surrounded by a name
What a name, what a name
And we never want to change
What you gave, what you gave
Never want to let go
So surround me
I need anything
And you, you're everything
I want to live like I did before all this hit
To sleep in your arms
To think, we'll never fall apart
And oh, you know its
You know its such a drag
To live your life for a heart attack
To never get a second chance to say goodbye
So say goodbye
I'll never get to try
Oh no, was it worth it?
Starting now I'm starting over
I'm gonna sleep
with the next person I meet
Starting now I'm starting over
You swore "together forever"
Now you're telling me lies
Tell me your words have got
no concept of time
Tick tock, you're not a clock
You're a time bomb baby
Oh no, was it worth it?
Was it worth what you did to big business?
Was it worth what your friends
put up their noses?
Starting now I'm starting over
Tell the new wave kids their make-up kits
can find me where self pity gets
a breath of fresh air
Tick tock, you're not a clock
You're a time bomb baby
You set the watch
You're just in time
to wreck my life
to bring back what I left behind
Five years and you fell for a waiter
I'm sure he says he's an actor
So you're acting like
you never tried to take your life
So starting now I'm starting over
I'm throwing bottles
I'm taking showers
I'm going to sleep
Starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
Starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
To play the game
Get even
Act my age
Oh no was it worth what you
Hold on, there's a hole in my heart
everyone can see right through me
it goes all the way to the waves
where my love she tried to wash it away
see we break for the summers
so she can find lovers
she treats them like a bottle of wine
they make you dinner
and they sing you to sleep
but by the morning find the bottle is empty
'cause she never gives it the time
every bottle she finds
they don't compare
to the ones she left behind
there is never a note
so she waits for me to come back home
I'm looking for a dead end song
you wish that smoke
could change its color
I love it when you talk so much
and act like nothing went wrong
I'm looking for a dead end song
while we sit and find flaws in everyone
I want to keep you by my side
holding off tidal waves
"mint car" is keeping us warm
she lays crossed upon the bed
we are puzzles making shapes
with our hands
I take my finger, turn into a pen
then i run my hand down your spine
you guess i wrote something profound
something like:
"our love will last 'til we die"
I say "you're good at this game"
but what I really wrote is
I can't stand to think about
A heart so big it hurts like hell
Oh my God, I gave my best
But for three whole years to end like this
Well do you want to fall apart
I can't stop if you can't start
Do you want to fall apart
I could if you can try to fix what I've undone
Cause I hate what I've become
You know me,
Or you think you do you, you just don't seem to see
I've been waiting all this time to be
Something I can't define. So let's
Cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet or something,
Yeah something.
I've just got to get myself over me
I could stand to do without
All the people I have left behind
What's the point in going 'round
When it's a straight line baby, a straight line down
So let's make a list of who we need
And it's not much, if anything
Let's make a list of who we need
And we'll throw it away cause we don't need anyone
No, we don't need anyone
You know me,
Or you think you do you, you just don't seem to see
I've been waiting all this time to be
Something I can't define. So let's
Cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet or something,
Yeah something.
I've just got to get myself over me
And I hate what I've become
You know the night life is just not for me
'Cause all you really need are a few good friends
I don't want to go out and be on my own
You know they started something I can't stand
You leave for the city, well count me out
'Cause all this time is wasted on
Well, everything I've done
You know me,
Or you think you do you, you just don't seem to see
I've been waiting all this time to be
Something I can't define. So let's
Cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet or something,
Yeah something.
I've just got to get myself over me
You know me,
Or you think you do you, you just don't seem to see
I've been waiting all this time to be
Something I can't define. So let's
Cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet or something,
Yeah something.
I've just got to get myself over me, yeah
in a dream that I cant seem to shake she is,
she is standing alone by the fence
I see tears in her eyes. why she cries
I just dont know what a mess that I make of my days
then theres you, your a mess to be made
and the dream starts to fade away
so youre leaving for months at a time
I help you out the door
but once your gone
I just stare out the window
Please could you please come back home
What a mess that I make of my days trying to save myself (save myself)
then theres you your a mess to be made
a canvas only paint could change
and a voice on the other end of the phone says
why dont you write a song about it well here it goes
I was raised on someting that youll never know
id hate this place if it weren't for the waves
if it werent fo r the fact that you love it
where they measure a man on the money
he spends well my love is not a bank statement
what a mess that I make of my days trying to save myself (save myself)
then theres you you're a mess to be made
a mess to be made
a mess to be made
Aw you've got flaws
That you won't admit
Yet you tell me it's a sin
that I don't believe in...
Yet you traded in your cross
for a chance to dance with stars
Now nothing is sacred
I've given thought to leaving
f-f-f-for sometime
If only I could read a map
My moat is New Mexico
so it's you I wrote
I starting sending you a note
Oh how I hope that you're happy
I hear you're somewhere in the sand
and how I wish I was an ocean
Maybe then,
I'd get to see you again
And all my friends
They break and they bend
They take shape and they tend
to get better with time
and I say
"Who am I to work so much less
You get more
You all deserve what I am walking towards
If you want you should move away"
This has become a weakness
The golden state wins again
Perhaps its time I settle
Say "it's blue
At least that's a plus"
plus
I miss you so much
I starting sending you a note
Oh how I hope that you're happy
I hear you're somewhere in the sand
and how I wish I was an ocean
Maybe then,
I'd get to see you again
Why am I scared of people in a room?
Why can't they see a good time
are the people close to you?
Why don't I just give in?
Have a drink and shake some hands
Oh ey oh
Oh ey oh
Why am I scarred from what she did to me?
Why can't I trust anyone?
No, not even me
Why don't I just give in?
Have a drink and shake some hands
Oh ey oh
Oh ey oh
I've given thought to leaving
f-f-f-for sometime
Maybe it's time I put a profile up
of who I want to be
Fool everyone
I could start over clean
I could hide behind a big blue screen
or you could return to me
Return to me
Oh how I hope that you're happy
I hear you're somewhere in the sand
and how I wish I was an ocean
Oh no
how I hope that you're happy
I hear you're somewhere in the sand
you know I wish I was an ocean
Maybe then,
I'd get to see you again
Ashes to ashes
Some dust on the dash
I've got my cigarettes
but I can't find the fire
that's calming me down
I was just out on a night with my friends
You are still out on a night
with your friends
and you don't seem to tire
when I'm not around
I'm under the tunnel
I'm holding my breath
I searched every pocket
that hung in the colest
'til I found some matches
in a brown leather jacket
One I swore I've never worn
but it once kept you warm
Do you remember
we made love on the floor
and you still haven't called
So I'll wait 'til they're closing the bars
I made a wish
I love Love
I love being in love
I don't care what it does to me
Take these tattered boxes
that used to hold your clothes
Break them down
Build them back up with your bones
All you did was construct a mess
You're good to me when only flesh
You're a memory with nothing to show
When we would take trips
We swore we'd never take pictures
Pictures only prove you can't convince
Now i wsh those photographs
could convince you that what we had
would only turn out a negative
well
well
well
If fingertips are relationships
then i could barely carry your weight
If fingers are mistakes
Don't use this one to point the blame
Just sing
sing
I love love
I love being in love
I don't care what it does to me
These pills are fine to pass the time
'til i find my new drug
Then
We'll take our chances
we'll last a month
we'll never speak again
How i love being in love
And don't pick up the line
You're dressed to have a good time
you don't need him, you need to be seen
so someone else can treat you wrong
so you my love can sing this song
I love love
I love being in love
I don't care what it does to me
These pills are fine to pass the time
'til i find my new drug
Then
They'll take advantage
I'll claim that's what i want
To be the new statistic
How i love
How i love
How i love being in love
Take these tattered boxes
That used to hold your clothes
Break them down
Build them back up with your bones
All you did was construct a mess
you're dead to me if love is death
You're a memory with nothing to show
WELL
WELL
WELL
If fingertips are relationships
Then maybe i could use a break
She smiles
She points at me
shes says:
Baby i love how you sing
so just
sing
I love love
i love being in love
i don't care what it does to me
These pills are fine to pass the time
'til i find my new drug
Then
We'll take our chances
we'll rise above
we'll last until the end
How i love
How i love
So the wind that blows across your room
carried cheap perfume onto your dresser
it rained for jewelry and for credit cards
two tickets to a film i dont remember
one day youll kiss your rabbits nose, pick up the phone
to find ive been turned over
and youll grab that piece of gold
only to find that the smell has taken over
now all the things you had, they arent the same...
as what you hold
im standing in a room,
its filled with older folks pleading "baby listen"
and i scream as loud as anyone,
but when asked to make a point i tend to whisper
now highways turn to tidal waves
theyre asking me to export all of your insecurities
but that wind that blows across your room
its gonna set the sails, and send me back to you
sometimes, when sailors are sailing
they think twice, about where theyre anchoring
and i think, i could make better time of my time on land
ill drink less
cause lord knows i could use a warm kiss
instead of a cold goodbye
im writing the folks back home to tell them
"hey im doing alright"
its a shame what your father did to your brothers head
he smashed it with a telephone
and your mother got scared and locked the door
you were only four, but lord you remember it
so now youre scared of love
im here to tell you loves not some fucking blood on the reciever
love is speaking in code
its an inside joke
love is coming home
sometimes, when sailors are sailing
they think twice, about where theyre anchoring
and i think, i could make better time of my time on land
ill drink less
cause lord knows i could use a warm kiss
instead of a cold goodbye
im writing the folks back home to tell them
"hey im doing alright"
yeah im doing just fine
and if she seems as lonely as me...
let her sink.
let her sink.
Can we take the next hour
and talk about me
Talk about me, and we'll talk about me
Talk about me, and we'll only talk about me
Can we please take this hour
and talk about me
and my hatred for corporate magazines
you know they don't speak to me
The irony is they won't speak with me
I placed you on a windowsill
Cut notches up and down the door
My surprise, I woke up one morn
In our bed
In your place
Lay a note
It read:
Baby your love
it just ain't good enough
I found sunlight six hours away
You watered me down 'til I drifted abound
Somewhere far from your shade
Now I shadow my former self
Once holy, now lonely
A chest full of holes
Red wax, it paints me unclear
when the big hand strikes twelve
I disappear
and the angels are fake
They'll lie to your face
Anything to keep you away
You watered me down 'til
I drifted abound
It's time I accept the fact
that you on your back
It has buried the past
Can we please take this hour and talk about me
Talk about me, and we'll talk about me
Talk about me, and we'll only talk about me
Can we take the next hours and talk about me
and my hatred for corporate magazines
you know they don't speak to me
The chords we play
Ways left to communicate
These roads are paved with plans we've made
And your headboard's never felt so safe
Well they'll reach our graves
Where your friends and I will kill the lights
And hide, oh, what a nice suprise
Don't, don't tell me when its coming, no
Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself
Don't breathe, don't make a sound
'Cause the song won't stop till the tape runs out
When melody has nothing to hold
I'll be the last sound that you hear
As your eyes close
And these chords remain
We'll use them to exploit the friends
We've since forgot, those friends we've lost
You all know just who you are
'Cause I've since made graves
But I'm too scared to etch the names
For fear that I'm the one who's changed
Don't, don't tell me when its coming, no
Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself
Don't breathe, don't make a sound
'Cause the song won't stop till the tape runs out
When melody has nothing to hold
I'll be the last sound that you hear
As your eyes close
The thought of death
It scares me to death
And I don't know why
I don't know
It's just too much to never wake up
Don't, don't tell me when its coming, no
Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself
Don't breathe, don't make a sound
'Cause the song won't stop till the tape runs out
When melody has nothing to hold
I'll be the last sound that you hear
As your eyes close
When melody has nothing to hold
I'll be the last sound that you hear
its your bed
so please choose a side
I'll take the one closest to the door
and you start to speak
the words that try to justify
do far more wrong then anything you do
so grab the coat, the keys
the tension speaks but we're singing it
ill tap the break while you crack the window
the smell of smoke is making my lungs explode
the 51 is backed up and too slow
let's tune out by turning on the radio
and this town is dead
we've been caught in these sheets way too long
let's just see who's up on this screen
no one i know is more depressing then me
or should i say the two of us cause after all we're all we've got
and tension speaks but we're singing it
ill tap the break while you crack the window
the smell of smoke is making my lungs explode
the 51 is backed up and too slow
let's tune out by turning on the radio
and oh my love you're all i need
backed behind a frequency
they played this song an hour ago
but lets tune out
lets tune out by turning on the radio
haven't we heard this song
about a thousand times before
oh well after awhile it all sounds the same
i guess its better then silence and better then shame
ill tap the break while you crack the window
the smell of smoke is making my lungs explode
the 51 is backed up and too slow
let's tune out by turning on the radio
ill tap the break while you crack the window
the smell of smoke is making my lungs explode
the 51 is backed up and too slow
let's tune out by turning on the radio
and oh my love you're all i need
backed behind a frequency
they played this song an hour ago
but lets tune out
let's tune out
I'm in envy of addicts
You're obsessed with stars
Don't, don't you sound
So excited
Showing me your vanity
Whisper it once, just a little bit
Come on, whisper it twice
I can't stand to see
The spotlight shine
One more night
It's killing me to see you
Just tie the rope
Oh, and kick the chair
Just leave me hanging there
Gasping for air, yeah
Don't mind me
Three feet from the ceiling
You'd rather watch me drown
Then see your hands get wet
You took the plot from stage to screen
And turned it to
Epic scene
So, whisper it once, tell me again
Come on, whisper it twice
I can't stand to see
My whole life flash
Before my eyes
When I'm with you, there's
No point in breathing
No point in breathing
Just tie the rope
Oh, and kick the chair
Just leave me hanging there
Gasping for air, yeah
Don't mind me
Three feet from the ceiling
I think I know, whoa, whoa
Why you never get too close
It's 'cause you're too scared to
When I'm with you there's
No point in breathing
So, so you run away
For no apparent reason
'Cause you and I are
Changing with the seasons
You give me an answer
As to why you're leaving
The table's full
No one's been dealing
So fold your hand
Go on and fold your hand
Just tie the rope
Oh, and kick the chair
Just leave me hanging there
Gasping for air, yeah
Don't mind me
Three feet from the ceiling
I think I know, whoa, whoa
Why you never get too close
It's 'cause you're too scared to
When I'm with you there's
No point in breathing
No point in breathing
forgive me you cut out again,
it seems so easy just to blame the reception
but theres something wrong
and i dont know why
why you, you never say goodbye
so please just leave,
you dont mean that much to me
you keep the ring,
ill take those saturdays in bed
cause i know you need them
as for me its nothing new just another two years
i wish we'd always wake up new,
refreshed and born again with nothing left to lose
but we dream too much
and who needs a crutch
pull off the bandage, theres no wound
so please just leave,
you dont mean that much to me
give back the ring,
keep all those summers with your friends
cause you know you need them
as for me its nothing new just another two years
that im here losing sleep
your sore thumb,
your best defense is miles from home
oh and it reads like a letter, with the words
all broken erased them with a razorblade cause youre gone
i was lost then i found you
but im breaking down now that
we just got to take our time
its like nothing really matters,
so lets make this moment a crime
i know, i know you're left behind
i'll do my best to feel broke down(i'll do my best to feel broke down)
its been a minute, a second,
i'll wait for you to make a sound
but i know, i know you're taking time
maybe its just too late
(i've gotta get away)
everything feels the same
tell me it's not too late
(i've gotta away)
tell me its not to late
on and on and on you wait
and all the days, they fade away
and all the nights,
they've never felt the same

and on and on and on and on
the things we do are never gonna change
well you haven't got a lot to say
but you never want to stop
you always want to feel this way

on and on and on you wait
and all the days, they fade away
and all the nights,

the things we do are never gonna change

if ever, you're too hip to saying never
i'll never get it,
oh i shouldnt sweat it
like it matters, its over,
yeah at least till you come over
so much for shutters,
we're living under covers
maybe its just too late
when everything feels the same
tell me its not too late
on and on and on you wait
and all the days, they fade away
and all the nights,
they've never felt the same
if i was wrong then i was wrong
and on and on and on and on
the things we do are never gonna change
the things we do are never gonna change
if i was wrong then i was wrong
and on and on and on and on
the things we do are never gonna change

I'm nicotine
I'm coming clean
I fooled the crowd
when I made it sound like I was more than ready
strike up the band
deprive my sleep
cause there's no love like apathy
the bell that tolls rings loud enough
that it should have woke us up
I'm trying to find truth
in words, in rhymes, in notes
in all the things I wish I'd wrote
cause i feel like i've been losing you
I read your last entry
over-privileged kids keep crying
the need to fit in gets harder
when living life from a screen
old classmates please drop all your pens
don't write a word cause I won't reply
and I'm not bitter, no it's just I've passed that point in my life
I'm trying to find truth
in words, in rhymes, in notes
in all the things I wish id wrote
cause I feel like I've been losing you
each night it ends too soon
you don't hold me like you used to
and your eyes look like they've seen too much coz
it's always some excuse
too tired, too obtuse
you look so far removed
this time I fear I'm losing you for good
im nicotine im a cash machine
im the color green
and you shoulda seen the looks i just recieved
i need a reason to let go
an intervention a lullaby
something to cure me please believe me
I'm trying to find truth
in words, in rhymes, in notes
in all the things I wish I'd wrote
cause I feel like I've been losing you
each night it ends too soon
you don't hold me like you used to
and your eyes look like they've seen too much but
it's always some excuse
too tired, too obtuse
you look so far removed
Well I made my way back down to the valley
Right on past 83rd street
That's where we once belonged
But I'm gone
I swear I'm long gone
So give it up, throw your hats in the air
And change just as they land
You're saying, "We'll get out of here"
Something tells me that you're too scared to go
So the stairs that you could climb
Are the ones you've left behind
And your eyes light up when we talk about the past
God, I miss those songs we used to sing
Talking like getting away would be the greatest thing
Well me, I got out,
And you, you kept singing to me
Like that's really going to set this free
So give it up, throw your hats in the air
And change just as they land
You're saying, "We'll get out of here"
Something tells me you're too scared to go
Like a ghost
You've been haunting all these dusty old roads and old homes
The ones we swore we'd never go, oh oh
As for Joe
Oh, I've seen him around
Then there's Adam
He's afraid to go out
I don't blame him, I just wanted to go out to eat
Then there's Mark
God damn, I wish him the best
We were kids back then, as if we could progress
Sometimes I, I just can't sleep
Thinking of everything we could have been
So give it up, throw your hats in the air
And change just as they land
You're saying, "We'll get out of here"
Something tells me you're too scared to go
So give it up, throw your hats in the air
And change just as they land
You're saying, "We'll get out of here"
It feels like you've been asleep for days
The television is on
I can't stay awake
I'll fall down, again
And when your friends leave,
Oh they get gone
It's such a pet peeve when you prove me wrong
I'll fall down
And we all fall down
I need to get back to Tempe,
It's been two years since I've been here before
Back down to the streets that lead me
The ones that keep me, away from Glendale
O-o-open your eyes and let me in
I swore to god I'd never swear
And we all fall down
All the girls pose the same for pictures
All the boys have the same girl's hair.
And I am bored because I feel much older,
Look at me as if I got a reason to stare.
But you talk so loud, that it calms me down.
You're crying, "let's make a toast."
She says she's leavin on a Sunday,
That leaves me one more night.
Can I take you home?
I know it's wrong, but I know your type.
She says she's leavin on a Sunday,
I don't care I need to know where to turn.
I tried it once it never caught on,
I was the only one who got burned.
I've read every word you've said,
From a poster of a cat.
Four books look across your sofa,
I thought your coffee table was more clever than that.
It gets worse once we get to her room she stops and she sings "do do do do do do do do"
I claim "New Religion" is my song,
She doesn't get it,
It's all before she's born.
And you lock your door,
Like I've been here before.
I feel like I've seen a ghost.
She says she's leavin on a Sunday,
That leaves me one more night.
Can I take you home?
I know it's wrong, but I know your type.
She says she's leavin on a Sunday,
I don't care I need to know where to turn.
I tried it once it never caught on,
I was the only one who got burned.
I was the only one who got burned.
Suddenly between sheets and eyelids, I am reminded why I don't do this.
I fall in love far too quickly,
I never want her to forget me.
When you're gone,
Will you call?
Will you write?
She says she's leavin on a Sunday,
That leaves me one more night.
Can I take you home?
I know it's wrong, but I know your type.
She says she's leavin on a Sunday,
That leaves me one more night.
Can I take you home?
I know it's wrong, but I know your type.
She says she's leavin on a Sunday,
I don't care I need to know where to turn.
I tried it once it never caught on,
I was the only one who got burned.
I was the only one who got burned.
I was the only one who got burned.
You think it's cool to be crazy
I say you're born rich
Stay rich
There's no point in taking chances
And me
I wouldn't call it a sophomore slump
I'd say I'm one step closer to being just
Where I want
To be
Away from this scene
Away from this machine
Meet me in the middle
C'mon let's make up a dance
We'll agree to call it The Compromise
Step one:
Find a partner
Grab a pen
Don't you dare ask questions
Just sign on the dotted line
Step two:
Throw your partner behind a desk
Where they'll do absolutely nothing
So it's your job to dance and smile
The whole time
Don't call it a trend
It's the only way we think to get ahead
Meet me in the middle
C'mon let's make up a dance
We'll agree to call it The Compromise
There's no sense in complaining
It doesn't change our mind
Take me by the hand
Let's Compromise
I can feel your feet touching mine
If you can't dance
I don't like your cowboy boots
To me they don't tell the truth
I feel like mine do, I'm from the Midwest
You're from New York.
This voice is stronger, this boy is grown
You'd better claim sticks and stones
You better pray to God I choke
These words will hurt you, haunt you
I've become a frivolous man
In need of a goody-good time
I want a goody-good time,
I want a good time at your expense.
I've found you by the light of the moon
Past all the wolves in the sheep's perfume
Tell me why I can't count on you
I need someone to sing me to sleep
The longest flame I want to blow you out
I want to get you back, but not like that.
This voice is stronger, this boy is grown
You'd better claim sticks and stones
You better pray to God I choke
These words will hurt you, haunt you
I've become a frivolous man
In need of a goody-good time
I want a goody-good time,
I want a good time at your expense.
Graze in green, summers in blue
Red is my favorite paint.
Why do I know stutter like adjectives
When they bend to leave you lips
And what does it mean when you claw at my sleeve
For a cave to bury your face
Why after year, do you stil come?
Why you always falling in love?
Why do you run to me
When you know you run the risk of running late?
Longest flame, I want to blow you out
I want to get you back, but not like that.
This voice is stronger, this boy is grown
You'd better claim sticks and stones
You better pray to God I choke
These words will hurt you, haunt you
I've become a frivolous man
In need of a goody-good time
I want a goody-good time,
Princess cards she sends me, with her regards
Oh, barroom eyes shine vacancy
To see her you gotta look hard
Wounded deep in battle
I stand stuffed like some soldier undaunted
To her cheshire smile I'll stand on file
She's all I ever wanted
But you let your blue walls get in the way of these facts
Honey, get your carpetbaggers off my back
You wouldn't even give me time to cover my tracks
You're saying, "Here's your mirror and your ball and jack"
But they're not what I came for
And I'm sure you see that too
I came for you, for you, I came for you
But you did not need my urgency
I came for you, for you, I came for you
But your life was one long emergency
And the cloud line urges me, and my electric surges free
Climb into my ambulance, your pulse is getting weak
Oh, reveal yourself all now to me girl
While you've got the chance to speak
'Cause they're waiting for you at Bellevue
With their oxygen masks
I could give it all to you now if only you could ask
But don't call for your surgeon even he says it's too late
It's not your lungs this time
It's your heart that holds your fate
Well don't give me money, honey, I don't want it back
You and your pony face and your union jack
Well take your local joker and teach him how to act
'Cause I swore I was never that way even when I really cracked
Didn't you think I knew that you were born with the power of a locomotive
Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound?
And your Chelsea suicide with no apparent motive
You could laugh and cry in a single sound, oh oh, oh oh
And your strength is devastating in the face of all these odds
Remember how I kept you waiting when it was my turn to be the god?
You were not quite half too proud when I found you broken on the beach
Oh, remember how I poured salt on your tongue and hung just out of reach?
And the band they played the homecoming theme as I caressed your cheek
Oh that ragged, jagged melody, she still clings to me like a leach
But that medal you wore on your chest always got in the way
Like a little girl with a trophy so soft to buy her way
We were both hitchhikers but you had your ear tuned to the roar
Of some metal-tempered engine on that alien, distant shore
And now you left to find a better reason than the one we were living for
And it's not that nursery mouth I came back for
It's not the way you're stretched out on the floor
'Cause I've broken all your windows and I've rammed through all your doors
And who am I to tell you to lick my sore?
And you should see that too
I came for you, for you, I came for you
But you did not need my urgency
I came for you, for you, I came for you
But your life was one long emergency
Feels like you've been asleep for days
The televisions on, I can't stand it
We all fall down again
And when your friends leave
All they get gone
It's sucha pet peive
When you prove me wrong
We all fall down
and we all fall down
I need to get back to Tempe
It's been 2 years since I've been there before
Back down to the streets that we meet
The ones that keep me away from Glendale
Oh, oh, oh
Open up your eyes and let me in
I've swore to god i'd never swear again
we all fall down
Stayed awake for 15 hours waiting on your reply
So I came outside to kill my lungs
And to kiss the night goodbye
I thought about your favorite sweater
Now I'm wishing it was at our feet
If I could change one thing about you
I'd call you Annelise 'cause it's better than Jen
Hey Annelise
Won't you come with me to Central Park
We'll catch a cab or we could stray from wheels
And walk this boulevard
But you don't respond
You're gonna end up dull
Much like your parents are
Hey Annelise
Don't you ever feel the need to leave
Oh that's me scared of what you people will think
I'm your favorite second rate singer
Holding out both my hands
I'm cursed with the voice of a kid
And pent up three word commands
So "tie the rope, tap the break, cause a scene"
Whatever keeps me in control
Cause these bones are growing tiresome
And they can't seem to hold my soul
My whole heart, it's a joke
Hey Annelise
Won't you cross my mind on a stampede ride
Screw Hollywood
'cause we've got better things to do than fake our lives
But you don't respond
So won't you give up your birthright
Hey Annelise
Don't you ever feel the need to leave
That's me scared of what you people will think
Hey I'm alone and I want something real
Not a name cause my heart needs to heal
I want a girl who won't disappear
Oh I can see her in dark and dull colors
But coming in clear
Ah here she comes
Here she comes
Here she comes
Here she comes
Ah here she comes
I lost my memory
In a cab back in the city
It's somewhere off of Lexington
Just something that the east coast does to me
Makes me forget who I am
Well so c'mon and hold me
Don't put out the lights
I wanna see that look in your eyes
I know that lately
I've been out of your sight
Being here has never felt so right
I'm falling in love with you
Balloons or no balloons
So it's time I forget the past
And just learn to love what I have
And I love waking up to your laugh, oh
Something about the midwest sun and oh
It makes me miss you more than life
Could be the trees that stand alone in the fields
They remind me every couple of miles
I'd love to stop our lives, stop everything
Just so we could move far away
We'll live alone together with the sweat of the summer
With the chill of the cold winter air, oh yeah
I'm falling in love with you
For more reasons than 22
So it's time I forget the past
And just learn to love what I have
'Cause I love waking up to your laugh, yeah, whoa, oh whoa
Won't you put it in drive
C'mon and get me back home
I'll spend the rest of my life
With only you by my side
(x2)
Alright
I'm falling in love with you
Balloons or no balloons
It's time I forget the past
And just learn to love what I have
'Cause I love waking up to your laugh, yeah, whoa, oh whoa
Won't you put it in drive
C'mon and get me back home
I'll spend the rest of my life
Eliza's in the elevator
Finding words that rhyme with sunny
I think it's funny how she just leaves funny out
And me, I'm on my way downstairs
Gonna gaze and wander aimlessly
I'm gonna figure out what Manhattan's all about
How I wish it would rain tonight
I'd find a good excuse to stay inside
And watch those props come tumbling through the air
'Cause it's been the worst year of my life
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna die
So could you please, could you please, could you please
Grow out you hair?
William plays harmonica and guitar
On the side of the sidewalk
I'd love to stay and steal his melody
'Cause he hasn't got a care in the world
Not an answer to post
No one cares about his voice
Sometimes I wish that nobody loved me
And now I wish I could stab my throat
Well there goes your wife, your car, your home
There goes the life I've convinced myself I wanna own
And Becca you could come back to my clothes
The only note I'll hold is the ones you fold
Could you please, could you please, could you please
Grow out your hair?
Grow it dark and long like the winter
With no split ends, split ends are like friends
I don't need them
Well see I've got this friend
He's friends with a crippled man
And I know what I came for, I'll let you know
And it's not too much for you to ask me to grow
My life is just like religion
I'm making it up as I go, oh, oh, alright
Well they say all bad things come in threes
Well the last year has made the last three
Look so easy
You were supposed to keep the disease between you and me
So bandage up your wrists, throw away your prescriptions
And baby come back for me, yeah
Anita wakes to get ready for a day
She'll never regret
So far from me,
stands a man known as disease.
He's checking out the hands of the people that he meets.
And now, you just don't see me anymore.
oh, I've been losing everything.
You just don't see me anymore.
I'll wait for it.
You could be.
I would wait for the chance, would I go?
Would I ever see that?
I know things you say when you, you say everything,
I don't need much, but I know that its not enough.
Oh, and you know its such a drag.
You live your life for a heart attack.
You live the things that you understand.
You wanna get, I don't want to know.
I just can't see the way its been.
So go, would you go?
Would you go? Would you ever want to fall?
Would I know? Would I know?
Would I want to make it down?
Would you say, would you say what you never wanna,
don't wanna go,wanna go wanna know just what I--
I come as this one,
you'd forget all the things that you said.
But you don't want to wait for the time.
I was out of line.
I don't want to wait.
Would you stay? Would you ever stay?
yeah.
And don't you know its such a drag?
You live your life for a heart attack.
You live your life for a heart attack.
You're never gonna get this way.
I just can't slip away
any more.
Well, I've been losing everything.
You're not made
For this, dear boy
You're not made
For this, dear boy
We watch the stock drop
They say we're just snide, octane
I want to exchange
Hits for a testament
And this will be
My sacrifice
Up in the clouds
pick up the tab
Put me down
Now gently, just drop me
Cause this not a gallery
She takes me seriously
What a joke, she would know
If she wasn't too scared
To pick up the phone and go
You're not made
For this, dear boy
You're not made
For this, dear boy
The crime fits
The punishment
And an ice cold sal
Stabbing demons at dusk
She says well
Whom do you trust?
I don't trust anyone
Who do you trust
I don't trust nobody
Not even her?
No, not even me
Boy please, you're not
Think you lie before decieving
All the people that believe in me
Somewhere Arthur Lee is bleeding
Somewhere Arthur Lee is bleeding
If I came to learn one thing from this
It's that people from Long Island
Aren'at as old as they seem
They're older then they seem to be
I turn my back to the mirror
All you see is my back
It's leaving you somewhere
Lethal to make a red dot
Let's see what you got
Ready or not, here goes
The crime fits the punishment
You're not made
For this, dear boy
You're not made
For this, dear boy
You're not made
For this, dear boy
You're not made
For this, dear boy
You're not made
For this, dear boy
You're not made
You could do the laundry
I'll come by on Monday
You give me the money
I'll go buy your ticket
On the local lottery
We could win the lottery
We could go to Vegas
And be very happy
Ohh...
I could be a plumber
We could wait ‘til summer
We could save our money
Have a fine vacation
We could buy a trailer
If we bought a trailer
We could go to Vegas
And be very happy
Ohh, if life is just a gamble
Gamble if you want to win
Ohh, life can be so easy
Let the wheel of fortune spin
We could make a record
Sell a lot of copies
We could play Las Vegas
And be very happy
Ohh, if life is just a gamble
Gamble if you want to win
Ohh, life can be so easy
Let the wheel of fortune spin
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling
I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure
Chorus
Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem...
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure
Chorus (Repeat until end)
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
They found my body near the river
Now all the people in our town, they think it was your father
I didn't get your consent, but that's how I make my rent
The void; it's hard to make a friend
When it's too hard to put down the lense
And so, I float
Drifted 'bout 50 miles past Jamestown
I was recovered in the more where I floated onto shore
While the James was good for me,
And the barbed wire, that's another story
It's hard to rest in peace
When you can't get no sympathy
And so...
I can't seem to keep my mind off that inght
The way that you left with all your friends
Beneath the bar lights.
I couldn't help but hate you
So I followed you, I followed you home
And oh, take off your clothes, stand by the window
So I can see the scar that sits below your naval
And oh, with the Rosary, I wish that was me
How I wish I could rest upon your chest forever
I float, I float, I float.
I wish that I believed in heaven
I can't thank Sunday School for that.
Send me a seven digit pin code
Let me repent, let me believe.
We learn what we can comprehend
The folding of our hands, the bending of our knees
And the Hial Mary's along the bedside
My innocence must have caught his eye
Enough to ruin the last 16 years of my life
It's so hard to repent
When you've been giving no such reason to believe
I took off my clothes, stood by the window
Well don't you see the same scar sits below my naval?
And oh, but it's there for life,
Better yet, the lack thereof
How I wish I could come back as a piece of jewelry.
And oh, I float
Somewhere someone
Puts all of their faith in a fast car
While california opened your legs
Honey your feet
They aint as pretty as you think
My teeth are all still crooked on the inside
Could you please leave all your clothes on
Let me sweat this out
I can only see you naked
You're not in the car
You're not spending all your mothers money
'Cause that makes you feel secure
I can only see you naked
'Cause thats all youre good for
I'm sure they all agree
They take you home
To help make you forget about me
When they turn to sleep
You're wide awake
You spend the whole night staring up at the ceiling
Don't justify
Now you're no better then Justine
Well you said it was suicide
On the fourth of July
I say it saved my life
At the least come join me
within the belly of a big blue beast
set asail, catch a breeze
and come on
Don't forget to fill your suitcase
now watch it sink
'cause where we're going we don't need a thing
Not a map, or a seed,
'cause where we've been is who we used to be
We started wrapping our regrets in cloth
are you defined by all the things you want
or did you get caught up in the things that we are not?
You were born to believe you can't get lost
So when you run you always get to far
Now there's nothing you haven't seen,
but where we're headed we have never been
Past the pavement that we used to walk
Past the people that we used to know
now come on, go
past the people that have broke our hearts
we started laughing at them from afar,
but now we've climbed too high without a rope
now come on, go
No, we are not swans
nor are we as ugly as we think we are
we don't take to compliments, but please don't stop
now come on, come on
We are not swans
We fit into each other we are Russian dolls
where somewhere in the center sits a beating heart
but come on, come on
We are not swans
now do you feel we've gone too far
or do you feel we've reached the top
or do you feel like letting go
now come on, hold on
we are not swans
nor are we as ugly as we think we are
We aren't falling fast but we are falling far
now come on, come on
we are not swans
our fathers gave us features that we didn't want
our mothers claim those features made them fall in love
but come on, come on
we are swans
we are flying higher than our counterparts
we have got each other I'd say that's enough
now come on,
come on,
I think I'm sophisticated
'Cos I'm living my life like a good homosapien
But all around me everybody's multiplying
Till they're walking round like flies man
So I'm no better than the animals sitting in their cages
in the zoo man
'Cos compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees
I am an ape man
I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized
'Cos I'm a strict vegetarian
But with the over-population and inflation and starvation
And the crazy politicians
I don't feel safe in this world no more
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an ape man
I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man I'm ape ape man oh
I'm an ape man
'Cos compared to the sun that sits in the sky
Compared to the clouds as they roll by
Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies
I am an ape man
In man's evolution he has created the cities and
the motor traffic rumble, but give me half a chance
and I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle
'Cos the only time that I feel at ease
Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree
Oh what a life of luxury to be like an ape man
I'm an ape, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man oh
I'm an ape man
I look out my window, but I can't see the sky
'Cos the air pollution is
fogging up my eyes
I want to get out of this city alive
And make like an ape man
Come and love me, be my ape man girl
And we will be so happy in my ape man world
I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man oh
I'm an ape man
I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane
I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane
and we'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day
Just like an ape man
I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man oh
I'm an ape man.
I don't feel safe in this world no more
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore
And make like an ape man.
1000 umbrellas, a tongue
Couldn't catch all the rain
That drained out of my head
When you said we were over, over
I cried 'til I floated downstream
To a town they call misery
Uh, huh, misery
Misery, uh, huh, misery
And one-mission teacups, I bet couldn't hold
All the wet that fell out of my eyes
When you fell out with me
Now I'm crawling the wallpaper
That's looking more like a road map
To misery, uh, huh, misery
How can you smile and forecast?
Weather's getting better
And you'll soon forget her if you let
The sunshine come through
How can you smile and forecast?
Weather's getting better
If you never let a girl rain all over you
Just when I thought that
My vista was golden in hue
1000 umbrellas opened
To spoil the view
And one million salt seas
Recalled from school atlas
So eyes could be filled to the brim
Sunny Jim couldn't jump it
How can I be pleased
When I'm handed the keys?
To a town they call misery
Uh, huh, misery, misery, uh, huh, misery
So with the mop and the bucket
I'll just say forget her and carry on
Sweeping up where I'd been weeping
The jester's now creeping to strike down
The newly crowned monarch of
Misery, uh, huh, misery
How can you smile and forecast?
Weather's getting better
And you'll soon forget her if you let
The sunshine come through
How can you smile and forecast?
Weather's getting better
If you never let a girl rain all over you
And just when I thought
That my skies were a June-July blue
1000 umbrellas open
2000 umbrellas open
Nico, take it slow
Show me that you care
And love's not just a flare on my sleeve
Sleep well, I pray that cardboard boxes,
Set the perfect stage.
'Cause wood grain makes all man made things seem so out of date
Life is not a play, it's what we
Make of the people we love.
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh why, why, why, why, oh, why
Are you quick to kiss?
She bites at blades and leaves
God damn you shrubbery
Well I'm sick of vanity plays
Should we move to the UK?
'Cause life here in the states has escaped
All the people above us.
What we make of those people we love
(Chorus)
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh why, why, why, why, why
Are you quick to kiss?
Baby, maybe I spoke too soon
I'll touch you once you make the first move
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
I watch her as she runs
My mother jumps the gun
She puts her in her arms
That is just like my mom
Never lets go, never lets me grow old
I wanna pay her back
But love is nothing you can tax
My family's not rich by any means
But I feel we won the lottery, that day
The rock swallowed the girl
And I cried as cameras caught my eyes
My tears turned into butterflies
They fly away as caskets close
A new day comes you'll wake unfold
Smile when you feel the sunlight
You feel the sunlight
You feel the sunlight
You feel the sunlight
(Chorus)
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh why, why, why, why, why
Are you quick to kiss?
Baby, maybe I spoke too soon
I'll touch you once you make the first move
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch, oh
Snails see the benefits
And you
You're gonna walk backwards
through the room
Does that mean I won't see you?
It means you walk backwards
through the room
Tiffany's crying
She's dying to make it out of this hell
I just laught
'Cause it was my job to be her help
but I'm in my bedroom
Where friends won't debate my health
like"how can he save some summer night,
when he can't save himself"
You've got to pick me up
C'mon and pick me up
when I'm falling down
You've got to pick me up
Cut to December
How can a scalpel tear into skin
revealing walks in the park
Lord how can a heart
come from two separate organs
and you're gonna make this simple
Do you want to make me sweeter?
I know, I know, I know, I know
I'll let you down
I'll let you down
Prescriptions scripting a timeline
Swing sets, grade schools, and black eyes
First love, heartbreak, and true love
I was on your porch,
The smoke sank into my skin,
So I came inside to be with you,
We talked all night,
About everything you could imagine,
'Cause come the morning, I'll be gone,
And as our eyes start to close,
I turn to you and I let you know,
That I love you.
Well, my dad was sick,
My mom she cared for him,
Her loving nursed him back to life,
And me, I ran, I couldn't even look at him,
For fear I'd have to say goodbye,
And as I start to leave,
He grabs me by the shoulder and he tells me,
"Whats left to lose? You've done enough,
And if you fail then you fail but not to us,
'Cause these last three years,
I know they have been hard,
But now it's time to get out of the desert and into the sun,
Even if its alone."
So now here I sit,
In a hotel off of Sunset
My thoughts bounce off Sam's guitar,
And thats the way its been,
Ever since we were kids, but now,
Now, we've got something to prove,
And I, I can see their eyes,
Then tell me something, can they see mine?
'Cause whats left to lose?
I've done enough,
And if I fail then I fail but I gave it a shot,
'Cause these last three years I know they have been hard,
But now it's time to get out of the desert and into the sun,
Even if it's alone,
(Even if it's alone)
Even if it's alone.
I was on your porch last night,
Today's been a career day
Futures made and fortunes lost
As I'm standing in the lobby
I'm waiting for the elevator
To take me away up to nine or ten
Maybe eleven
The sound of sirens fading
As she whispers in my ear she's saying
"It's too late to wish success
So get undressed and please just come to bed
Cause I'm the last real thing you've got
You're cursed by all ambitious thoughts"
Is that all you've got
As for you, you spin a story like a spider spins a web
See that's a metaphor, no wait, a simile
I'm still learning but I think im getting better
Oh if I'm not tortured how are you ever going to relate
I've been condemed by those I love
Wishing me the worst as I'm trying my best
But she's the last real thing I've got
I'm cursed by all ambitious thoughts
Is that all you've got
Love close your eyes and cover cover your ears
For the end is near but the beginning is here
In with the outro and out with the old
I'm gonna tie all the loose ends I once pulled
In with the outro and out with the old
Preparing for failure, from what we've been told
In with the outro and out with the old
With nothing to offer, so nothings been sold
In with the outro and out with the old
Forgive me and give me one more chance to fold
In with the outro and out with the old
There's nothing to lose when there's nothing to hold
The feeling you forget
is one shot, two shots, we'll make more sense
I knew that you'd be back
to start it up, let's start again
You never wanna get away from what you've done
You never wanna stop the things that I've become
I know the reason. and theres just no reason
and all this time that I could waste
all the time that I could stay
all the time I would let you down
And all this time that I can't be
the one thing that you don't know, baby,
I know the reason you've been down, and theres just no reason
You'll never take this step
to make a mence that we can lead
you're startin over to remember who you were,
wasting everything for what your livin for,
I know the reason, and theres just no reason
and all this time that I can't wait,
all the time that I could stay,
all the time I would let you down
And all this time that I can't be
the one thing that you don't know, baby,
I know the reason you've been down, and theres just no reason
aww you, do do do do do do, aww you, oooh,
aww you, do do do do do do
and all this time that I could waste,
all the time that I could stay,
all the time I would let you down
And all this time that I can't be
the one thing that you don't know, baby,
Don't you dare
Speak for someone you don't know
They'll feel it in the back of their throat
We know I cant construct a poem
'Cause words like girls get bored and run
c'est la vie
I say "I've got so many better things"
I've got nothing
you should see me
I smoke myself to sleep
And blame postmodern things I cant relate
Like summer camp and coastal states
Like alcohol and coffee beans
Dance floors and magazines
I think its safe to say I've only got
myself to blame
But boys in swooping haircuts
are bringing me down
Taking pictures of themselves
oh no
And so I walk the web in search of love
But always seem to end up stuck
I'm finding flaws in everyone.
I've reached the point where all I want
Is to sleep around in hopes that I will catch back up
We are parallel lines
We're running in circles
We're never meant to cross
I'm at a loss
You were my tangerine
My pussycat, my trampoline
Now all's I get are wincing cheeks
And dog problems
I signed a lease
Thinking my heart belonged
at 93rd and park
Instead I broke a girls heart
And flew back to Phoenix
to finish the year as it started
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
This is the sound of my heart breaking
And I hope it's entertaining
Cause for me
it's a bitch
Was it worth it
When you slept with him?
Did you get it all
out of your system?
I am a man
Holding it all
I couldn't breathe
Coming across
I didn't know
I couldn't get up
B is for believing you'd always be here for me
E is for everything, even when we'd see it though
C, C is for seeing through you, you are a fake, which brings me to...
A because, because, you always run away
I never finish phrases I misspell
An open arm's a prison cell
When I said, "I hate what I've become"
I lied, I hated who I was
So when you start to wonder
about the pain in my throat,
Then don't you ever, no never ever
Speak for someone
don't
its just the nicotine thats
coming over me, or is it
anything more then a smoke
screen. cause i feel like
you've been living a lie.
you're looking better than,
than you ever did. nothings better than, than you once
said. i've been waiting but
i've been losing my. losing my mind. i've gotta take the
car for a long drive. i'm
gonna get out and i'll commit
myself. i dont know how you
do what you do (do do do.) i
gotta take the plan for a
long ride. i'm gonna get out
and i'll commit myself. i
wont believe a thing that you
say. and all the cigarettes
are getting better yet. i
just can't forget all the
other shit. i know you're in
bed and to me thats just
fine. but you can't sleep
you're laying next to me.
saying everything, saying
everything. that you would do
if you could just open your
eyes. well open your eyes.
I want it all
Even the raindrops won't fall in my way
I'm parting the seas
I'm setting the standard for living a dream
By staying awake
And counting the days
I'm falling in love by the side of the road
Mrs. Math do you always count to thirteen?
Holding sunsets
Voting on pieces of string
Wishy-wash, tabletop, one, two, three
Does your cat have a mustache?
Does it remind you of me?
I want it all
Even for me the autumn leaves stay green
And all of the clams that is holding your hand
Could never, ever take the place all like me
But now forget the time
It's a crime
That the pearl
Of a girl
Has been waiting to be set free...
Mrs. Math do you always count to thirteen?
Holding sunsets
Voting on pieces of string
Wishy-wash, tabletop, one, two, three
Well, does your cat have a mustache?
Does it remind you of your cat with a mustache?
Does it remind you of...
The ships that sail towards the west
The largest scar, the treasure chest
The water never harms the mast
It's the clouds that fool the sun to set
One, two, three four!
(The ships that sail towards the west
The largest scar, the treasure chest
The water never harms the mast
It's the clouds that fool the sun to set)
Cover your eyes
Try and walk a straight line
I tell you, the darkness is robbing us blind
And although I can't see your heart
I can still hear it beat from your breast
It's like a lighthouse
It's like a lighthouse
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna find you
Alright (?)
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna find you
