IF YOU WERE A WAITING ROOM I WOULD NEVER SEE A DOCTOR I WOULD SIT THERE WITH MY FIRST AID KIT AND BLEED
"Don't you know that only fools are satisfied?"
MY LOVE DRIPS IN RED OUT OF MY MIND AT THE EDGE OF THE SKY
LAST NIGHT IM MESSING UP NOW I FEEL LIKE DRESSING UP
ANYWAY, DONT BE A STRANGER
emy heart is a witness to a love I can't unsee
And people always say, "If it hasn't happened yet, then maybe you should go"
the running away is easy, its the leaving thats hard
IF THIS ICE SHOULD BREAK IT WOULD BE MY MISTAKE
USED TO BE ONE OF THE ROTTEN ONES AND I LIKED YOU FOR THAT
DRIFTING IN AND OUT WE'RE UP AND DOWN ON LUCK
CURSE WORDS AND EMPTY CUPS CRACKED BLACKTOP CURLING UP
They take the simple things inside you and put nightmares in your hands
ITS ALLLLL IN THE GROOOOVE
WE DONT TALK ENOUGH WE SHOULD OPEN UP
GET DRESSED TO UNDRESS DEPRESS TO IMPRESS ALL NIGHT LONG
But then if you're so smart, tell me why are you still so afraid?
HEY DAY DREAMER I THINK YOU'RE THINKING TOO MUCH
Summers end around the bend just flyin, swimming suits are on the line just dryin
Now you're the one who knows me best, and hates me most
Somewhere in these eyes I'm on your side
OH BABY MAYBE ITS 1974...
MAKING A MESS AIN'T AS FUN AS IT USED TO BE
IM MELTING EVERYHTING IS SO SURREAL
ITS JUST YOU AND ME IN THE SUMMERTIME
I'll take care of you, if you ask me to, in a year or two
The feelings here, the pattern caught in a falling tear
You don't need no ticket boy it'll take you when its time
How did I go from growing up to breaking down
Wish we'd grown up on the same advice and our time was right
home is where you stop, for a minute, and clean your teeth
When you find out what you want, you're gonna miss this when its gone
For you I'd bleed myself dry
We're just two slow dancers last ones out
It's always "what if?" and "why not?" Man you gotta just be
Simplify define your goals and watch them grow
Be your own true self the you that I know
Dirty knees an honey bees nowhere else could sting this sweet
I don't wanna swim forever I don't wanna fight the tide
And there's so much left to say
I guess I'm just the bigger guy
And there's too much on my mind
That I don't even want to try
ALL OF THIS TURBULENCE WASN'T FORECASTED
Passing out pieces of me, don't you know nothing comes free
I'm jealous of the way you're happy without me
You will grow too quick, then you will get over it
Silly little girl she tries, thinking she is good and wise
I'M NEVER COOKING UP WHAT YOUR CRAVING
FEEL THIS BURNING LOVE OF MINE
I'LL TAKE CARE OF YOU, IF YOU ASK ME TOO
FUCK IT YOU SAID ITS BEGINNING TO LOOK LIKE THE END
SO SICK OF SWIMMING IM IN OVER MY HEAD
HOME IS WHEREVER IM WITH YOU
The branches of the trees they will hang lower now
IM SPENDING LIKE HALF OF MY SUMMER TRYNA HOLD ON YOUR HAND
PLEASE HURRY LEAVE ME I CANT BREATHE PLEASE DONT SAY YOU LOVE ME
NOTHING IN THE WORLD BELONGS TO ME BUT MY LOVE IS MINE ALL MINE
I KINDA LIKE YOUR TRICKS TWO LIZARDS ON A STICK AN ESTUARY DIG
But with you my dear I'm safe and we're a million miles away
the stars have a lot to say about babies born in the month of may
I studied every line you're etched upon my mind
THE PAST ISNT DEAD, ITS ALIVE IT IS HAPPENING IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD
I GOT THIS HABIT, DUMB FIXATION, I GO BACK AND RELIVE EVERY CONVERSATION
TAKING HITS FOR YOU CAUSE I WANNA FEEL LIKE IM SUPPOSED TO
ITS ON AGAIN OFF AGAIN LOVE YOU LIKE OXYGEN I DONT KNOW WHAT TO SAY OR DO
CAN THE KILLER IN ME TAME THE FIGHTER IN YOU?
I DONT KNOW HOW TO FEEL BUT I WANNA TRY
I was dreaming; I was thinking; Maybe you could stay
I was hoping for a moment; your mind might change
WE HAD OUR OWN KIND OF ENERGY FUNNY WHEN YOURE RIGHT THERE NEXT TO ME TROUBLE WILL FIND US
BUT NOW ITS BEHIND US
YOU ATE ME RIGHT UP YOU SPIT ME BACK OUT
YOU BIT MY HEAD RIGHT OFF WITH YOUR TINY LITTLE MOUTH
I LICKED THE BLOOD FROM YOUR LIPS
I DONT KNOW HOW YOU GET OVER GET OVER SOMEONE AS DANGER TAINTED AND FLAWED AS YOU
Fallin down, from high hopes to the ground, there's no way out
DID I DRIVE YOU AWAY
IM ADJACENT TO A LOT OF LOVE
YOU'VE BEEN LOCKED IN HERE FOREVER AND YOU JUST CANT SAY GOODBYE
I DONT WANNA END THE SEASON ON A BAD EPISODE
YOU NEVER SAW MY BIRTHMARK
But we don't have to talk about it
I can walk you home and practice method acting
I wanna be your vacuum cleaner
Breathing in your dust
And I asked, "Are you ready? Ready for this life?
In or out, you go. In your silence, your soul
Honey, don't ignore me
I just wanted it to be the same
You said you'd love me like no tomorrow
I guess tomorrow never came
OH, MY GOD, TAKE ME BACK THE WAY THAT I WAS
I just want you to know who I am
What do you do with the pieces of a broken heart?
And how does a man like me remain in the light
And if life is really as short as they say, then why is the night so long?
tempers astray, just like a dog, rabid for days, lost in the fog
YOU LOOK LIKE YOUVE BEEN FOR BREAKFAST AT THE HEARTBREAK HOTEL
IF HELLO JUST MEANS GOODBYE THEN HONEY BETTER WALK AWAY
