Boys
01:49

You loved the least and won the most
And I learned to breathe in a vacuum
You build me up to break me down again
Again and again
What do I get for being your best friend
Self-hate and a Christ complex
Boys swing with their eyes closed
Boys never seem to know
How much it costs to love them

RHCP
04:45
|

We drove to the concert together
I was holding the wheel
You thumbed through RHCP CDs
I had sorted by year
I'm not lying when I tell you
They're still my favorite band
But when "Under the Bridge" played
I wish you held my hand
Hey I'll be waiting for you only
I have eyes for you
It's not been perfect but it's something I need to be true
I think you can tell what I'm feeling
I'm afraid of it, too
So you fix your gaze to the ceiling
When I walk in the room
Am I dying to be like you
Or just to be your man
Hey I'll be waiting for you only
I have eyes for you
It's not been perfect but it's something I need to be true
Hey, hey
I am ready, yeah
I am ready, yeah
When you give me something
Hey, hey
I am ready, yeah
I am ready, yeah
Hey I'll be waiting for you only
I have eyes for you
Hey I'll be waiting for you only
I have eyes for you
It's not been perfect but it's something I need to be true
I scratched your name on my skin
It's not going anywhere
'Till we burn up in the sun

Let Me Down
03:48
|
|||
I think a lot about it
I guess I forgot to let it out
But don't blame me
I was just waiting for the right time
Okay I'm sorry
I was afraid you'd be pissed off
But don't worry that you might let me down
I do that every day in some new and fun way
I let myself down
I let myself down
I'm scared I'll never make it
But on the other hand
I'm scare to death I'll make it
So I don't leave
I've been inside my head for hours
And it gets lonely
I think this is where I get off
But don't worry that you might let me down
I do that every day in some new and fun way
I let myself down
I let myself down
Down
Down
Down
I've been living like the world is ending
And it's getting fucking boring
As if I was ever up at all
But don't worry that you might let me down
I do that every day in some new and fun way
It's always
But don't worry that you might let me down
I do that every day in some new and fun way
I let myself down
I let myself down

Illegal Parking
03:09
|
|||
I'm sitting in the parking lot of a strip mall down the street
And I'm thinking about driving all the way to New York City
Two days on the interstate doesn't sound that bad to me
No, the worst part is accepting that you don't know I exist
Is it legal to park here for an hour
If I don't go in the shop
Do you think they'll call the cops
'Cuz this feeling is more real than the pavement
But sitting in my car
I don't feel real at all
I bet this happened to my dad once
I bet he's been there before
But I'm damn sure not gonna call him
I'm damn sure not gonna call him
I bet this happened to my dad once
I bet he's been there before
But I'm damn sure not gonna call him
I'm damn sure not gonna call him

Love Me or Leave Me
04:17
|
|||
I left your house just after midnight
You had to bring some sins to light
We talked for hours locked in your bedroom
But the confession ended soon
Is that what you wanted
Is that all you wanted from me
I'm not sleeping much these days
Thoughts of you keep me awake
I've got symptoms of being in love
So why does it feel so bad
Love me or leave me
These quiet gestures are leaving landmines
It's not that safe here in my head
I'm not afraid of playing Jesus
If that's what gets me in your bed
Is that more than you wanted from me
I'm not sleeping much these days
Thoughts of you keep me awake
I've got symptoms of being in love
So why does it feel so bad
Love me or leave me
Love me or leave me
Love me or leave me
Love me or leave me
You got what you wanted
You got what you wanted
I'm not sleeping much these days
'Cuz you're keeping me awake
I've got symptoms of being in love
So why does it feel so bad

Vibe
03:52
|

Stuck a needle in my skin again
Just to prove that I'm alive
In my head so much I want to crawl out of my skull
Yeah
I want it all but you don't vibe with that
Vibe with that
Vibe with that
Yeah
Stuck a needle in my skin again
It's a pain I can control
If I'm gonna hurt I wanna do it to myself
I'll do it to myself
I'll do it to myself, yeah
I want it all but you don't vibe with that
Vibe with that
Vibe with that
Yeah
This is more than one conversation
This is more than one conversation
This is more than one conversation
This is more than one conversation

Dream Park
04:00
|
|||
I know it's been
It's been a long time but it feels like yesterday
We went to the park long after dark to talk
You took me home the rest of the year when you turned sixteen
I couldn't drive
Maybe that's why we got so close
Some peoples' stuck is some peoples' free
And I have decided it matters to me
Getting the help that you need
What does that mean
What does that mean
Off-white CRV
The song of the week and a thousand mix CDs
It felt like a shrine, the inside of your mind, I would know
When I heard you say
You're having a kid I felt something strong
And settling down in our parents' town
Are you okay
Is this okay with you
Some peoples' stuck is some peoples' free
And I have decided it matters to me
Getting the help that you need
What does that mean
Yeah
Some peoples' stuck is some peoples' free
And I have decided it matters to me
Getting the help that you need
What does that mean
I've been holding back for way too long
Now maybe
Maybe it's time that we talk

I wish you could see yourself right now
I wish you could see yourself right now
You're talking to me
You're talking to me
You're talking to me and it's so sad
I wish you could see yourself right now
I wish you could see yourself right now
You're talking to me
You're talking to me
You're talking to me and it's so sad
So sad
