You asked if you could phone me tonight
I said I'd give you a ring
As soon as I walked out the door
I stood under hazy downtown lights
As you spilled your guts into the receiver
This is the greatest city in the world
The trash piles up in the drain
I take the next bus to your house
You lay your head against my chest
Do you want to put things back together,
Or just watch them fall apart?
Cuz if you want to go from where we left off,
Honey we'll re-break each other's hearts
So if you need me, darling
You can let me know
And I will be there to help you live
But if you want to love me
I will tell you no
I have got no more love to give
We sat in silence on your couch
We didn't have to talk to listen
You said you want to work things out
Why doesn't this feel any different?
These are the best years of our lives
We see the scars through rosy glasses
You say you want to make things right
I'm tired of being so fucking passive
Do you want to put things back together,
Or just watch them fall apart?
Cuz if you want to go from where we left off,
Honey we'll re-break each other's hearts
So if you need me, darling
You can let me know
And I will be there to help you live
But if you want to love me
I will tell you no
I have got no more love to give

I don't wanna dance tonight
I'm not feeling alright
You're the one that I'm here for
But you're sat drinking by the door
We both barely know the one guy here
Who told us to come over
Now he's doing blow and I don't feel
Like waking up hungover
So we should go back to my place
And let these memories fade away
We've got the same thing to say
But neither of us wanna give it away
Our eyes meet across the room
And I know that I've gotta ask you soon
If you wanna jack a car
And catch a ride into the night
Or if you wanna fall asleep with the windows down
And me right there beside you
We could watch a movie or just
Make out in my bed for hours
The taste of beer's stuck in my mouth
And your lips look a little less sour
I know time is running out
So let me know if you're thinking
Exactly what I'm thinking about

It started gettin dark today early on the walk home
So we watched the clouds go
From grey to blue
We stepped around the puddles draining into the dirt path
I stopped when I looked back
Face to face with you
We're just
Sittin on the pier and skippin stones in the river
Freezin on the beach and taking polaroid pictures
Under an umbrella in the pouring rain
Lookin for excuses not to go home again
Hanging up old photos on your bedroom wall
Wonder if there's any better reason at all
To be anywhere else in the world
There's something I forgot to say, girl
Darling
Some part of me is falling
Falling hard for you
And somewhere
The perfect words are out there
So I can tell the truth
What more can I do?
I waited for you as the sun rose over the tree line
So cold but I'd be fine
As soon as you're there
You said we had a lot of time so we walked a bit farther
Started gettin darker
Earlier than before
You took me by the hand and led me under the boardwalk
We both took our clothes off
And held each other close
You whispered in my ear and said in so many ways that you loved me
I stopped feeling ugly
I had a reason to live, I had a reason to live
Darling
Some part of me is falling
Falling hard for you
And somewhere
The perfect words are out there
So I can tell the truth
What more can I do?
And if I drive you home
Will I spend the night alone?
Or will I wake up with a note beside my bed
Sayin "if you're feeling lonely
I'm your one and only.
If you need a place to rest your head
Save what's been said..."
Darling
I'm falling hard
For you

Got a zippo and a blue path jacket
Got a candle on my windowsill
Watch it blow out as the cool breeze floats in
Got no electric cuz I don't pay my bills
On the street it's me and Henry Rollins
Shouting "six pack!" at the top of our lungs
In my bed it's me and my punk dreamz
that's the only place I have any fun
Ay, oh
Let's go
Ay, oh
Oh no!
Call my mom up, gotta make a deposit
These black Doc Martens don't clean themselves
Got a gig tonight at Sammy J's ballroom
At the end I think I'll smash my guitar
Ay, oh
Let's go
Ay, oh
Oh no!
Ay, oh
Let's go
Ay, oh
Noooooo!!!
I'm smoking cigarettes to sound like Kurt Cobain
Smoking cigarettes to sound like Kurt Cobain
Smoking cigarettes to sound like Kurt Cobain
Smoking cigarettes
Got a band, but we don't have a name yet
And we're working on our very first song
Got two singers doing double-lead vocals
Me and the drummer just can't get along
Heading home at the 5th street bus stop
"Last Caress" and the pouring rain
Can't wait til I'm under my covers
Rippin' solos in my punk dream state
Ay, oh
Let's go
Ay, oh
Oh no!
Ay, oh
Let's go
Ay, oh
Noooooo!!!
I'm smoking cigarettes to sound like Kurt Cobain
Smoking cigarettes to sound like Kurt Cobain
Smoking cigarettes to sound like Kurt Cobain
Smoking cigarettes

Apples & Oranges

Down by the beach on a Monday night
You're playing bossa from your speaker and the feeling's alright
Flowers in bloom while kids fly their kites
Apples, oranges, wouldn't it be nice?
Down by the river you took my hand
You said you wanna get wasted and sleep in the sand
Who am I to disagree?
Apples, oranges, you and me
You called up your friend who had a few tabs
I got nervous when you said that it wouldn't be so bad
Took your car down to the lake
Apples, oranges, that was a mistake
Took off all your clothes on a whim
Went in the water, you forgot how to swim
Picked you up and ran back to the car
Apples, oranges, CPR

Still Can't Skate
02:49

Sitting motionless with a haze across my eyeballs
watching white paint chips falling off my drywall
Start boiling water to clear the air
Picking yesterday's cobwebs out of my hair
10 hours later I'm back for more
stuffing cans in my bag at the corner store
5 dollars to my name 50 grand on my head
Stumbling home tryna get back to bed
Wake up
Shake down
Get home
Locked out
So tired
So stoned
You won't
Pick up your phone
Lying in the street with my head in the gutter
Don't need a radio, I'm the song of the summer
Setting fireworks off in the parking lot
Jump behind a car before they go off
Steal a deck from a downtown shop
Caught on the way out, now they called the cops
Rode it down the street, barely got away
Broke a tooth on the ground 'cause I still can't skate
Wake up
Shake down
Get home
Locked out
So tired
So stoned
You won't
Pick up your phone
Knock Knock
Open up
Windows cracked
"Shut up!"
Left out
On the grass
Fall back
On my ass

I have the same dream every night of my life
I'm in a dark room, with a dot of light
I try to reach out and cup it in my hand
It turns into your eyes and then to grains of sand
These dreams won't leave my head
Every night until I'm dead
Pieces of you, fragmented
Never come together, never come to, never come to...
I can't tell if I'm ever really awake
Everywhere I go, never an escape
I spin around in circles, try to open my eyes
Your breath hangs in the air, clouding out the sky
These dreams won't leave my mind
No release, never even a sign
Your image can't align
Never come together, never come to, never come to...

Singing About the Summer
03:32
|
|||
Out of the day, and into the night
Out of the sun, and into the light
How does it feel to visualize your vision?
How does it feel to drive a manual transmission?
Nights at McDonald's and mornings at Denny's
We're pulling our bootstraps and counting our pennies
I never did know the names of the chords
But I was singing about the summer
And I was thinking about when the streetlights never turned on at all
I was singing about the summer
And I was dreaming about when you taught me how to play the guitar
I was singing about the summer
When we listened to Vampire Weekend and never ever fought at all
I was singing about the summer
When we took turns shotgunning Hey Y'alls
Our parents never asked us to call
I was singing about
Pennies for breakfast, Fentanyl for dinner
Why stop a sin when you can punish a sinner?
Surrender to habit or take the offensive
And why are these smokes so god damn expensive?
When do we stop and start again
And why is it dark? It's only 4pm
I think it's time I memorized those chords
And I was singing about the summer
When we started a band, but I didn't know the names of the chords
I was singing about the summer
When we went for a drive and you taught me how to use my words
I was singing about the summer
When we climbed to the top of that building, that French guy kicked us off
I was singing about the summer
When I first tried to smoke cigarettes and you showed me how to take a shot
I was singing about the summer
When we got your sister to buy us some booze and we drank it together
I was singing about the summer
When we jumped in the ocean at midnight and knew it would last forever
I was singing about the summer
When we listened to Vampire Weekend and carved our names into the wall
I was singing about the summer
When we sat on the beach until sunrise and never thought about it at all

Don't tell me to wake up
I haven't put on my makeup
Get up, roll over
Take a look at my four-leaf clover
My luck charm
My left arm
Fell asleep cuz I slept on it last night
What a sight I must be
My eye's feeling lazy
My vision's going hazy
In your friend's apartment
Let's get some coffee started
We're up and we're at 'em
Ready to face a brand new day
What have you got to say?
I wouldn't trade it for the world
Guess what I traded for the world?
My own worst enemy
My good integrity
I wouldn't trade that for the world
Lifestyles of the rich & famous
Don't slow down or the kids might replace us
Neither hell nor high water ever phased us
Cuz if we brave the waves we might stay famous
Guess what? You're front page
Headlining actor, main stage
No scandal you can't handle
Going up like a roman candle
You're gorgeous, you're morbid
An icon of perversity
Who do you wanna be?
I wouldn't trade it for the world
Guess what I traded for the world?
My own worst enemy
My good integrity
I wouldn't trade that for the world
Lifestyles of the rich & famous
Don't slow down or the kids might replace us
Neither hell nor high water ever phased us
Cuz if we brave the waves we might stay famous

You're Too Shy
05:39
|
|||
I'm sitting in my room
Waiting for a call
Everybody else but you and me
Is out getting drunk or losing teeth
I think we should meet
In the park between our buildings
After dark
And sometimes I think it could be
Exactly like it is in my dreams
And you'd be wearing the same dress you were
When I first saw you
And I'd be wearing the same dress I was
When you first saw me too
And it starts with a look
And it starts with a step
And it starts with two hands together
And four feet stepping in time
But if you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to, you're too shy too
You're too shy to dance let me know
And you're worried your parents will find out
You're worried that they'll notice when we're gone
But we don't have to worry here and now
We're living in this moment, this single perfect moment
And I don't sleep much anymore cuz
It's not the same when I'm not next to you
And I don't open up my door cuz
You might be on the other side
Waiting to come in
And you're the only thing that's going on in my mind
It's like every second you're away I'm wasting my time
It's like can't fuckin think of what I'm not doing right
Because you're the only person that I want in my life, yeah
You're the only person that I wanted to love me
You're the only person that I wanted to love me
You're the only person that I needed to love me
You're the only person that I ever need, ever need
So if you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to, you're too shy too
You're too shy to dance let me know
If you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to, you're too shy too
You're too shy to dance let me know
If you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to, you're too shy too
You're too shy to dance let me know
If you're too shy to, you're too shy too
If you're too shy to, you're too shy too
You're too shy you're too shy, you're too
You're too shy to dance...
If you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to dance let me know
you're too shy to, you're too shy too
You're too shy to dance let me know
