i got a rock n roll boyfriend
he likes to shake his head at me
yeah, i got a rock n roll boyfriend
shaking his finger at me
no, i won't let him change my mind
i won't give him my time
no, i won't stand in line
and take it from him
i got a bag 'em and a toss 'em
and he has his hand on my sleeve
i don't want to bag them
i try hard not to bleed
no, i can't stand to abide
his loneliness coming in tides
no, i don't need no

mistakes

it was late
i was running out of things to say
now im cold
i guess ill just shiver it out
reminded of all the little things
the things that make me talk this way
and walk another way
i dont know nothing about anything
but i know how i feel
murder weapon on the scene
is my running mouth filled with such obscene
rarities that never see the day
so you walk away
i dont blame you im a lot to deal with
its not my strength
i think i know just a little bit
but i dont know how i feel
what do people really talk about
when it comes down to it
are we strangers or are we just friends
everybody makes mistakes
but i seem to do it a lot
when i’ve had a drink
i dont know nothing about anything
i dont know nothing about you
but i know how i feel

love

the perfect love’s not hard to find
you can see it walking down the road
open up the door inside your heart
and let it in for the long haul
well mine stays open any day any night
i look at strangers on the train
i wonder what our kids would look like
but sometimes i can hold myself
back from the rest but not you
but i want my tongue-tied, restless
loving with a frozen glove
and i want to get all breathless
everytime that you come home
but i dont know, i dont know
if thats just wishful thinking
if i see it in the movies
it just must be what im wanting
the perfect love’s not hard to find
you see it looking in your window
most marriages aren’t built to last
well maybe we should just get married less
picture perfect nothing less
lying to each other saying we’re just too tired
to breath in on a single breath
and let the flames get to our head tonight
but i want my tongue-tied restless
loving with a frozen glove
and i want to get all breathless
everytime that you come home
but i dont know, i dont know
if thats just wishful thinking
if i see it in the movies
it just must be what im missing

eighteen
you wake up and it’s raining
and i dont want to think about you
all day but i know i do
face wet
is this the day i get my head checked
and i don’t know if everyone else is this way
or if i’m going crazy
it’ll all get better with time
we’ll find our rhythm and drink wine
and we’ll dance together one day
but for now there’s nothing to say
eighteen
do you know what anything means
no, you’re just another sucker punch waiting to happen
and you don’t know when
slow crawl
another day another brick wall
driven by my blood pounding impulses
telling me to get dead
it’ll all get better with time
we’ll find our rhythm and drink wine
and we’ll dance together one day
but for now there’s nothing to say
eighteen
head full of puzzles on a heartstring
i wish i didn’t have feelings
but they’re running in my soulstream

flightless bird
02:47
|

out of the window
the hand of god is just a bundle of rope
tied to the pillow
where you rest your head
it’s hard to swallow
the truth like a sharpened knife
it’s starting to burrow
in your mind
tied to your heart of stone
keep your eyes on the road
flightless bird you’re alone
and alone again
into the willows
fingers tracing like a river mouth
through to the hollows
of your empty dreams
i can’t remember
a time where I could find
a dark corner
in a crowded room
tied to your words of hope
keep yourself afloat
flightless bird you’re alone
and alone again

It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again
It's always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go
It's not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them you know not me
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go
