Days when
We'd fight, we'd fight 'til I would give in
Yeah, perfect disasters
We were reaching, reaching for the rafters
And on most of the days we were searching for ways
To get up and get out of the town that we were raised, yeah
'Cause we were done
I remember, we were sleeping in cars, we were searching for OZ
We were burning cigars with white plastics tips 'til we saw the sun
And we said crazy things like
I refuse to look back thinking days were better
Just because they're younger days
I don't know what's 'round the corner
Way I feel right now I swear we'll never change
Back when we were kids
Swore we would never die
You and me were kids
Swear that we'll never die
Lights down
And we drive and we're drivin' just to get out
Yeah, perfect disasters
Yeah, we were swinging, swinging from the rafters
Hey, we were dancing in cars, we were looking for ours
We were naming the stars after people we knew 'til we had to go
And we were saying things like
I refuse to look back thinking days were better
Just because they're younger days
I don't know what's 'round the corner
Way I feel right now I swear we'll never change
Back when we were kids
Swore we would never die
You and me were kids
Swear that we'll never die
Nights when we kept dancing
Changing all our plans and
Making every day a holiday
Feel the years start burning
City lights they're turning
Something 'bout this feels the same
Back when we were kids
Swore we would never die
You and me were kids
Swear that we'll never die
I refuse to look back thinking days were better
Just because they're younger days
I don't know what's 'round the corner
Way I feel right now I swear we'll never change
You and me were kids
 
I'm gonna pick up the pieces
And build a Lego house
When things go wrong we can knock it down
My three words have two meanings
There's one thing on my mind, it's all for you
And it's dark in a cold December
But I've got ya to keep me warm
And if you're broken I'll mend ya
And I keep you sheltered from the storm
That's raging on now
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done
I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done
I think I love you better now, now
I'm gonna paint you by numbers and color you in
If things go right we can frame it
And put you on a wall
And it's so hard to say it but I've been here before
Now I'll surrender up my heart and swap it for yours
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done
I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done
I think I love you better now
Don't hold me down
I think my braces are breaking
And it's more than I can take
And it's dark in a cold December
But I've got ya to keep me warm
If you're broken I will mend ya
And I keep you sheltered from the storm
That's raging on now
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done
I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done
I think I love you better now
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done
I will love you better now
 
I'm not big on fighting these days, but I don't call the cops
And I'm not big on scrapping lately, when I start, I don't stop
I just need one more person to hate me, talk that talk
One more problem might make me kill them all
I'm a heartbreaker, ass kicker
I'm a hot trigger, nasty words
I got two fingers for ass-kissers
I'm an asshole, dirtbag, no good bastard
Look, it's no more Mr. Nice Guy, so go ahead and get mad
I'll show you how easy I turn a tough guy to a dead man
I ain't your buddy, buddy, haters or obsessed fans
If we were buddies, trust, I crack a Bud just like a red can
Bedpan full of piss and vinegar
Head scan said that I'm not crazy, but I'm similar
Let's dance, lead hands, homie, you get slept fast
Trust me, you're a midget, I'm a monster, every slap I throw's a finisher
I just need one more person to hate me, talk that talk
One more problem might make me kill them all
I'm a heartbreaker, ass kicker
I'm a hot trigger, nasty words
I got two fingers for ass-kissers
I'm an asshole, dirtbag, no good bastard
Turn your ass into a crackhead, you must love getting rocked
Take your door off with the flat-head and take everything that you got, ayy whoa
Don't make me put in my purse, we only Gucci on curbs
You think you bet I'm the worst and your family to church, so baby, don't get on my nerves
Like, I don't know 'bout these hoes, all I know's how we go
We're non-stop, we'll reload if you're talking, I see ghosts
You groupie baby, I'm different, think you know Hell? Well, I'll show you it
I was born in Hell, Devil knows me well, I returned with a list like Moses did
I just need one more person to hate me, talk that talk
One more problem might make me kill them all
I'm a heartbreaker, ass kicker
I'm a hot trigger, nasty words
I got two fingers for ass-kissers
I'm an asshole, dirtbag, no good bastard
I don't call for backup, keep those comments to yourself
Bunch of cop calling pussies, 'fraid to handle **** themselves
We was raised by the wolves, we ain't afraid to bleed and help
Sort the men from the boys, they have-nots from the wealth
With God as my witness, I'll leave you where you stand
If you flex, that's your death, we're doing more than throwing hands
You better give me six feet when I come through, back the **** up
Guaranteed to leave you bleeding if you make me back this truck up
I just need one more person to hate me, talk that talk
One more problem might make me kill them all
I'm a heartbreaker, ass kicker
I'm a hot trigger, nasty words
I got two fingers for ass-kissers
I'm an asshole, dirtbag, no good bastard
 
I'm a coward, I'm a freak
The scum of the Earth
A liar and a cheat
But I could be so much worse
You call me narcissistic
They say I'm the worst
To join this conversation
I could be so much worse
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
I'm such a sinner
Yeah have been since birth
Have an adrenal full of lust
But I could be so much worst
They say I'm hedonistic
Got a bit too extrovert
Described as positively sadistic
But I could be so much worse
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
Uh uh
I thank God that I'm not you
 
I know I can't take one more step towards you
'Cause all that's waiting is regret
Don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most
I learned to live half alive
Now you want me one more time
Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?
I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms
I've learned to live half alive
Now you want me one more time
Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?
It took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
'Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back
Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all
Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
 
When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
So fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here
She's running out the door (run)
She's running out
She run, run, run, run,
Run...
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
 
Psychos in riot gear march through my nightmares
i'm overexcited and underemployed
i'm gonna get even, don't give me no reason
i don't need a reason to be bored
don't make it no big deal,
i just couldn't sit still there wasn't no feeling behind your words
i'm taking my medicine, just wait till it kicks in i don't need a reason, i'm just bored

it's never enough, it's never enough it's just my luck, i could live forever
it's never enough, it's never too much it's never enough, no, never ever...

white noise interrupts, and no reception is good enough
white noise, turn it up, i'm disconnected, i'm out of touch (don't touch me)

now who can i blame for
this time that i've wasted
there's no one around but i'm not alone
just look through the window,
yeah it's looking through ya,
you stand on the edge of a paper cut..
you talk and i listen, but something is missing
there wasn't no meaning behind your words
there's too much distortion, it's making me dizzy
addiction is easy when you're bored

it's never enough, it's never enough
it's never enough, no, it's never ever

i get lost
in my head
in my head
it's always raining
all my friends
want me dead
in my head, turn it up!

white noise interrupts, and no reception is good enough
white noise, turn it up, i'm disconnected, i'm out of touch
 
Echoes of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
Havin' a party up next door but I'm sittin' here all alone
Two lovers in the bedroom and the other starts to shout
All I got is this blank stare and that don't carry no clout at all
Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
He's singin and she's there to lend a hand
He's seen his name on the marquee but she will never understand
Once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye
Embraces with a warm gesture it's time, time to say goodbye
Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Ruby's heart ain't beatin' 'cause she knows the feelin' is gone
She's not the only one who knew there's somethin' wrong
Her lover's in the distance as she wipes a tear from her eye
Ruby's fading out, she disappears, it's time, time to say goodbye
Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho (destination unknown)
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho

Hieroglyphics, let me be Pacific, I wanna be down in your South Seas
But I got this notion that the motion of your ocean
Means small craft advisory
So if I capsize in your thighs, high tide, B-5, you sunk my battleship


You and me, baby, ain't nothin' but mammals
So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel
 
I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah, I'm working my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Been payin' every day.

When you were so in love with me
I played around like I was free
Thought I could have my cake and eat it, too
But how I cried over losing you
See, I'm down and out
But I ain't about to go living my life without you
Hey, every day I made you cry
I'm paying, girl, till the day I die.

I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah, I'm working my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Been payin' every day.

Oh, I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
If I had been a man in reality
You would be here, baby, loving me
Now my nights are long
And I ain't too proud, babe, I just miss you so
Girl, but you're too proud, and you won't give in
But when I think about all I could win
I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah, I'm working my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Been payin' every day.

Oh, please, forgive me, girl, come on (Give me a chance)
Won't you forgive me, girl, hey (Let's have romance)
Ooh, forgive me, girl (Let's start again)
Come on, forgive me, girl
I want you over and over and over and over again.....
🎼
 
I never thought that You would be the one to hold my heart
But you came around
And you knocked me off the ground from the start
You put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go
You put your arms around me and I'm home
How many times will let you me change my mind and turn around
I can't decide if I'll let you save my life or if I'll drown
I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home
The world is coming down on me
And I can't find a reason to be loved
I never wanna leave you
But I can't make you bleed if I'm alone
You put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go
I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home
I tried my best to never let you in to see the truth
And I've never opened up
I've never truly loved 'till you put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go
I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home
You put your arms around me and I'm home
 
You know I'm just a flight away
If you want it, you can take a private plane
A kilómetros estamos conectando
Y me prendes aunque no me estés tocando
You know I got a lot to say
All these voices in the background of my brain
Y me dicen todo lo que estás pensando
Me imagino lo que ya estás maquinando
Quien lo diría. Que se podía hacer el amor por telepatía! La luna esta llena, mi cama vacía. Lo que yo te haría.

fierce GIF by Kali Uchis
 
I see this life, like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And in my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and ye shall find

Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
On just doing what we're told

I feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
 
Keep me coming, keep me going
Keep me humming, keep me moaning
Don't stop love until the morning
Don't stop screaming, freakin', blowin'
Blow

Can you eat my skittles
It's the sweetest in the middle, yeah
Pink is the flavor, mmh
Solve the riddle, yeah

I'm a lean back
Don't worry it's nothing major
Make sure you clean that
It's the only way to get the
Flavor
Oh, boy

If you're thirsty and in love just hit your boy
I'm your milk man at your door
When you phone me I can see you with your cup
 
Come on, Eileen
Come on, Eileen
Poor old Johnnie Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
Moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried
Sang along, who'd blame them?
You've grown (you're grown up)
So grown (so grown up)
Now I must say more than ever
(Come on, Eileen)
Too-ra-loo-ra
Too-ra-loo-rye-ay
And we can sing just like our fathers
Come on, Eileen
Oh, I swear (what he means)
At this moment
You mean everything
You in that dress
My thoughts, I confess
Verge on dirty
Ah, come on, Eileen
Come on, Eileen
These people 'round here
Were beaten down, eyes sunk in smoke-dried face
They're so resigned to what their fate is
But not us (no never)
But not us (not ever)
We are far too young and clever
(Remember)
Too-ra-loo-ra
Too-ra-loo-rye-ay
And you'll hum this tune forever
Come on, Eileen
Oh, I swear (what he means)
Ah, come on, let's
Take off everything
That pretty red dress
Eileen (tell him yes)
Ah, come on, let's
Ah, come on, Eileen, please
That pretty red dress
Eileen (tell him yes)
Ah, come on, let's
Ah, come on, Eileen, please
Now you're full grown (too-ra)
And now you have shown (too-ra, ta-loo-ra)
Oh, Eileen
Said, come on, Eileen (come on, Eileen) (you've grown)
These things they are real and I know (ta-loo-rye-ay) (so grown)
How you feel (come on, Eileen, ta-loo-rye-ay)
Now I must say more than ever (too-ra, ta-loo-ra)
Things 'round here have changed
I said, too-ra-loo-ra (come on, Eileen, ta-loo-rye-ay)
Too-ra-loo-rye-ay (come on, Eileen, ta-loo-rye-ay)
(Too-ra, ta-loo-ra)
Come on, Eileen
Oh, I swear (what he means)
At this moment
You mean everything
You in that dress
My thoughts, I confess
Verge on dirty
Ah, come on, Eileen
Come on, Eileen
Oh, I swear (what he means)
At this moment
You mean everything
In that dress
Oh, my thoughts I confess
Well, they're dirty
Come on, Eileen
Come on, Eileen
Whoa (what he means)
Whoa
Ah, come on, Eileen
Oh, believe me
If all those endearing young chums
That I gaze on so fondly today
Were to suddenly leave you, oh fly in the night
Just like fairy gifts gone in the sky
 
I hope you see as you look down
All of this love gathered around
I hope you hear what people say
I hope you know the role you play
You were my rock
You were my shield
This space you leave
No-one can fill
You held the room
You cast a spell
You'll always be remembered well
And when my days have come and gone
I hope I leave more right than wrong
I want to feel this love I see
When I am gone I hope there'll be someone to remember me
Though you're not here
Not here with me
A part of you will always be
I'll hear your laughter
I'll see your smile
I'll feel you near, once in a while
And when my days have come gone
I hope I leave more right than wrong
I want to feel this love I see
When I am gone I hope there'll be someone to remmber me
And when the days have come and gone
I hope I'll leave more right than wrong
I want to feel this love I see
When I am gone I hope there'll be some to remember
Someone to remember me
 
There ain't no gold in this river
That I've been washin' my hands in forever
I know there is hope in these waters
But I can't bring myself to swim
When I am drowning in this silence
Baby, let me in
Go easy on me, baby
I was still a child
Didn't get the chance to
Feel the world around me
I had no time to choose
What I chose to do
So go easy on me
There ain't no room for things to change
When we are both so deeply stuck in our ways
You can't deny how hard I have tried
I changed who I was to put you both first
But now I give up
Go easy on me, baby
I was still a child
Didn't get the chance to
Feel the world around me
Had no time to choose
What I chose to do
So go easy on me
I had good intentions
And the highest hopes
But I know right now
That probably doesn't even show
Go easy on me, baby
I was still a child
I didn't get the chance to
Feel the world around me
I had no time to choose
What I chose to do
So go easy on me
 
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they'd stick up for me

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleepin' alone
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Waitin' for me to come home (to come home)

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted (wanted)
'Cause he's taken you for granted (granted)
And everything you had got destroyed

It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

But you're just a boy
You don't understand
Yeah, you don't understand, oh
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
'Cause you've taken her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

But you're just a boy
 
Bang bang into the room (I know you want it)
Bang bang all over you (I’ll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute ’til you (ah, hey!)
Bang bang there goes your heart (I know you want it)
Back, back seat of my car (I’ll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute ’til you (ah, hey!)
 
I hear your heart beat to the beat of the drums
Oh, what a shame that you came here with someone
So while you're here in my arms
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young
We're gonna die young
We're gonna die young
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young
Young hearts, out our minds
Runnin' till we outta time
Wild childs, lookin' good
Livin' hard just like we should

That magic that we got nobody can touch (for sure)

Young hunks, taking shots
Stripping down to dirty socks
Music up, gettin' hot
Kiss me, give me all you've got
It's pretty obvious that you've got a crush (you know)
That magic in your pants, it's making me blush (for sure)
Looking for some trouble tonight (yeah)
Take my hand I'll show you the wild side
Like it's the last night of our lives (uh huh)
We'll keep dancing till we die (till we die)
I hear your heart beat to the beat of the drums

So while you're here in my arms,
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young
I hear your heart beat to the beat of the drums
Oh, what a shame that you came here with someone
So while you're here in my arms
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young
We're gonna die young
We're gonna die young
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young
