BORNS - Dopamine Lyrics






Everything Is Easy

I drove the coast just to see you
Why'd you take so long?
And I get that you know that I miss you
And I, I know something's wrong

And I'm caught in this state
At least I hope it's a phase
And I go and I just play along
And the voice that she plays
The photos that I've erased
I know something is wrong
I know something is wrong

And then you speak to me
And everything gets easy
Like I get what I wanted
Now I'm just haunted by you constantly
And everything gets easy
Til she leaves you alone
And then you're soaked to the bone
You'll be sore
Come make it easy some more

Go ahead, take my heart up
Roll it up like a joint
Smoke me out till the feeling gets cashed
When you look in my face
It's like you forget the point

And then you speak to me
And everything gets easy
Like I get what I wanted
Now I'm just haunted by you constantly
And everything gets easy
Til she leaves you alone
And then you're soaked to the bone
You'll be sore
Come make it easy some more

You're gonna be sore
Sore, sore, sore
Sore, sore
You're gonna be sore
Sore, sore, sore
Sore, sore
La la la la, be so lonely now
Da da da da, be so lonely now

If you wanna see me
You know I'm easily found
Just climb the stairs where we used to live
Wrap your fist round my heart
Yeah, you know how it pound, pound, pound

Now I'm just haunted by you constantly
And everything gets easy
Til she leaves you alone
And then you're soaked to the bone
You'll be sore
Sore, sore, sore
Sore, sore
Come make it easy some more
Oh, oh, oh

10000 Emerald Pools

I'll dive in deeper, deeper for you
Down to the bottom, 10,000 emerald pools
Down to the bottom, 10,000 emerald pools
Under water
Time is standing still
You're the treasure
Dive down deeper
Still, all I need is you
You're all I need to breathe
All I need is you!

I'll make a living, trying to get away
10,000 fathoms, under a tidal wave
It can never pull me away
No way!
Under water
Time is standing still
You're the treasure
Dive down deeper
Still, all I need is you
You're all I need to breathe
All I need is you!
You're all I need to breathe
Down to the bottom, 10,000 emerald pools
You're all I need to breathe
I'll dive in deeper, deeper for you
You're all I need to breathe

All I need is you!
All I need is you!
It can never pull me away
Time is standing still
Dive down deeper
Still, all I need is you
You're all I need to breathe
All I need is you!

Shipboard Cook

I wanna go to the ocean
And send a postcard of my loneliness
Forgetting you is so elusive
I run away but it's always this
You're the only one
I love
It's always been you

And I wish I was conscripted in the Merchant Marines
Shanghaied into service to sails and machines just to stay alive
And my sister keeps it simple she's a shipboard cook
She can run line, but if you take a look, it's not easy though

'Cause I'm hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
I'm always a ghost

I tried your gypsy tarot readings, some seance stunt
I keep an open mind but I think it's just a front
Want to believe it though

My sister says: "Forget her boy, that's all that you need"
She pitches magical elixirs, potions full of mead for a broken heart
It's too late for that

And I try to keep it simple
I try to keep it true
It's always been you
It's always been you
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke
It's all just a joke
It's all just a boast
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
I'm always a ghost

You're about as haunted as a darkened basement
I've got all the chances of a dog in a settlement
She may have her secrets, she'll never tell
I ride along without 'em on a deep sea swell
I heard there's something new, she starts to talk
She's the merry widow on the widow's walk
And they say: "What do you fear what are you running from?"
The only thing I fear is when I go numb

And I'm hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Yeah yeah yeah

And I try to keep it simple
I try to keep it true
It's always been you
It's always been you
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke
It's all just a joke
It's all just a boast
Yeah yeah yeah, oh

I'm always a ghost
I'm always a ghost
I'm always a ghost
I'm always a ghost

Dug My Heart

You dug my heart a grave
I watched you illustrate
The expression of another lonely girl

And there you like awake
And wish you knew a way to fade
The blaring silence from your
Only world

Now you're running to the sound of the light
Running to the sound of the light
Running to the sound of the light

It's inevitable ain't it?
You left without saying
I hope the cracks in the pavement,
Lead back to you baby
Back to you baby

I burnt so many memories
Just to make room for any
Thoughts of caressing your sweet
Anatomy as we sleep
The taste you left on my teeth
Your breath across my left cheek
The feeling chemically, oh

It's inevitable ain't it?
You left without saying
I hope the cracks in the pavement,
Lead back to you baby
Back to you baby

And now you're running to the sound of the light
Running to the sound of the light
Running to the sound of the light

It's a inevitable ain't it?
You left without saying
I hope the cracks in the pavement,
Lead back to you baby
Back to you baby

Electric Love

Candy
She's sweet like candy in my veins
Baby, I'm dying for another taste

And every night my mind is running around her
Thunder's getting louder and louder
Baby, you're like lightning in a bottle
I can't let you go now that I got it

All I need is to be struck
By your electric love
Baby, your electric love
Electric love

Drowning
You make my heart beat like the rain
Surround me
Hold me deep beneath your weight

And every night my mind is running around her
Thunder's getting louder and louder and louder
Baby, you're like lightning in a bottle
I can't let you go now that I got it

All I need is to be struck
By your electric love
Baby, your electric love
Electric love

Rushing through me
I feel your energy rushing through me
I feel your energy rushing through me

Baby, you're like lightning in a bottle
I can't let you go now that I got it

And all I need is to be struck
By your electric love
Baby, your electric love
Baby, you're electric

All The Souls

I've been hiding out
In a city landscape
I met a frontier girl
With a firm handshake and she set boy don't let me down

She said all the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
Standing your ground

Oh and the camera on your cell phone screen
You miss everything
Did you ever feel the pull of the cotton wool
She said boy don't let me down

She said all the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
And all the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you can I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
Standing your ground
Standing your ground
Standing your ground

All the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
Standing your ground

All the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now

American Money

I was there when you fell from the clouds
And landed in the desert
There was a thunder inside of my heart
There was a wonderful pleasure

And like a stallion raised in the rain
You rode on the back of my bike
I knew from the song that you sang
That you were my lover for life

Oh, there's no time to sleep
Oh, living in a dream

So take me to the paradise
In your eyes
Green like American money
You taste just right
Sweet like Tennessee honey

And we can run away
Swimming in the sunlight everyday
Oh, paradise in your eyes
Green like American money

So we took to the calico road
Running from the weather
There was a highway inside of her eyes
There was a buried treasure

And we got caught in the storm
You started flying the kite
At the end was the key to my heart
You were my lover for life

Oh, there's no time to sleep
Oh, living in a dream

So take me to the paradise
In your eyes
Green like American money
You taste just right
Sweet like Tennessee honey

And we can run away
Swimming in the sunlight everyday
Oh, paradise in your eyes
Green like American money

We carved our love in the mountainside
We soaked our hearts in the rain
And I, waited my whole life, for you

So take me to the paradise
In your eyes
Green like American money
You taste just right
Sweet like Tennessee honey

And we can run away
Swimming in the sunlight everyday
Oh, paradise in your eyes
Green like American money

Dopamine

I aspire to you rockabilly heart
All animals and engine
But I always fake the part
My side of the bed
I want push of the ledge
Cause I cant get you to feel it
Till your out there on the edge

You say give it give it give it give it to you
And then you take it till there's nothing left

So put your hands where you want to
Start screaming across the City
I'm making it pretty
But I know I mean nothing
I'm just drugs to you
Still I'm jonesing like a fiend
So line me up that Dopamine
Ah Ah Ah Nah ah ah ah....

We had to break up
But I cant get you to feel the break
Call this what you will
Just don't call it a mistake
Call it addiction
Say that we were not in love
I don't really care now
When your all I'm thinking of
Yea your all I'm thinking of

So put your hands where you want to
Start screaming across the City
I'm making it pretty
But I know I mean nothing
I'm just drugs to you
Still I'm jonesing like a fiend
So line me up that Dopamine

I go out the way that I feel
You think I'm just a fiend
I'm just a chemical in your head
I'm just that Dopamine
So come on line me up
Come on line me up
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine

So put your hands where you want to
Start screaming across the City
Line me up that Dopamine
And I'm jonesing like a fiend
So line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up
Come on line me up that Dopamine

The Emotion

Shadows fill my mind up
Zeros tell me my time's up
I lost count so long ago
Maybe my heart's numb
Don't hold my hands accountable
They're young and they're dumb

Drive through the timezones
Escape out of my mind's own home
I lost you not long ago
Heaven knows I'm miserable
Hell takes all the credit though
'Til the day is done

The emotion is suddenly out of me
The emotion's building up inside of me
And what you're looking for is suddenly out of reach
The emotion, the emotion

Islands under eyelids
Swimming through the silence
You were all that, all that, all that I needed
And I'm falling, falling into the deep end now

The emotion is suddenly out of me
The emotion's building up inside of me
And what you're looking for is suddenly out of reach
The emotion, the emotion

Rolling through the dark
Calling to the light of day
Both eyes are open now and I'm running
I won't turn around for you

The emotion is suddenly out of me
The emotion is building up inside of me
And what you're looking for is suddenly out of reach
The emotion, the emotion

Rites Of Passage

Break ups, blowjobs and black guys
bass mans and goodbyes now
and your all freaked out
trying to find out what your life's about
In your soul there's a broken bone
Come home so far from home
And you got let down by occupied
Cant find the ties that bind

I wish I could not been through this phase
Its like Bowie says
You prettier things you go though to, to change it
Don't take the world they left behind us
Don't let them find us

Something you cant come back from
Something's lost and somethings won
Whats done is done
Move on to another one
Its Rites of Passage
Its just Rites of Passage

I used to think my thoughts would be brave
To low to be saved
All shadows and shade
So scared for even thinking
Even diamond talks have their days

Its like Bowie says
You prettier things you go though to, to change it
Don't take the world they left behind us
Don't Don't let them find us (Don't let them find us)

Something you cant come back from
Something's lost and somethings won
Whats done is done
Move on to another one

Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Its just Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Its just Rites of Passage

Can't stop it coming now you
Im still a man, your gonna die

Something you cant come back from
Something's lost and somethings won
This pain's the same now for everyone
Its Rites of Passage
Its just Rites of Passage
Rites of Passage
Its Rites of Passage

(Something you cant come back from)
Break ups, Blowjobs and Black Guys)
(Something's lost and something's won)
Make the one and save the night
(Whats done is done)
Move on to another one
Rites of passage (Rites of Passage)
Its Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Its just Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
I wish I could not been through this phase

Yea thats the one
Yea that the one
Yea thats the one

All believe in All believe in one
Woah oh Woah in that one

Back To Zero

Tomorrow I'm going to move and change my clothes,
Just black on black and nothing else
I'll just let it go

Oh, tonight I'm gonna scream and medicate,
'Cause it's too late to beg someone for some money
And emptiness is filling me

I'm gonna move back to zero
I'm gonna leave no doubt
I'm gonna zero you out

In the bold days
Just a substitute
For calling you, for stalling you
Gonna move back with some friends in black
Rebuild my life at 17th and Capp

I'm gonna move back to zero
I'm gonna leave no doubt
I'm gonna zero you out

I'm gonna move back to zero
And in the moment that I let go
I'm back to zero
And I take on a life of my own
I'm back to zero

And a song, a song starts to grow
Back to zero
And a song, a song
Don't let sorrow bring you down

I've been in love with her
I speak in perfect Japanese
Oh, no, no, are you gonna do it?
I think I'm through now
I'll mention all the black jeans.

Go, go, go, go, go! Whoo!

Back to zero! (I'm gonna move back to zero)
Back to zero! (I'm gonna leave no doubt. I'm gonna zero you out)

Haunted
No guarantees, sometimes it's enough to breathe
And get through one more day of missing you

Get through one more day of missing you

Holy Ghost

Baby baby baby
I was scared of being lost in love
Ooh I crave it on the daily
That sugar pill that dopes me up

Ooh, it's raining it's pouring
I picture you in the morning
The hot water and the steam
Oh the way you feel between
Both my hands, on your hourglass
Hours pass, I wanna watch you bloom
Gimme that sweet perfume

It's making my heart beat so fast
In my mind, you're the angel on the painted glass
Looking for high, divine, connection
I'm a lover, in need of confession

Let me satisfy your soul
Not a saint but do I have to be
Well baby, you're my holy ghost
And I need you close, come back to me

Baby, baby, baby
I fantasized and I prayed
I'm thirsty for your ecstasy
So open up your heavenly gates

Ooh, your tenderness is paradise
Baby take me there and I will
Worship at your feet, you can have my soul to keep

It's making my heart beat so fast
In my mind, you're the angel on the painted glass
Looking for high, divine, connection
I'm a lover, in need of confession

Let me satisfy your soul
Not a saint but do I have to be
Well baby, you're my holy ghost
And I need you close, come back to me

Back to me, back to me
Back to me, back to me

Let me satisfy your soul
Not a saint but do I have to be
Well baby, you're my holy ghost
And I need you close, come back to me

Let me satisfy your wide awake soul
No I don't care if it's blasphemy
Cause baby, you're my holy ghost
And I need you close, come back to me

Broke

She's always looking for the icing on the cake
She wants to eat it too
She's always looking for the icing on the cake
What does she want me to do?

She's got the midas touch

She's reaching deep into my pocket
Turning the glitter into gold
I ain't your sugar or your daddy baby
I just look good for being broke

She'll loot your money like a broken coke machine
She's gonna clean you out
She'll loot your money like a broken coke machine
She's got it figured out

She's got the midas touch

She's reaching deep into my pocket
Turning the glitter into gold
I ain't your sugar or your daddy baby
I just look good for being broke

Oh honey, just spend my money
Go ahead and break my heart, but baby don't break my piggy bank
Oh honey, just spend my money
Go ahead and break my heart, but baby don't break my piggy bank
Oh honey, just spend my money
Go ahead and break my heart, but baby don't break my piggy bank
Oh honey, just spend my money
Go ahead and break my heart, but baby don't break my piggy bank

Something In You

Someone's basement party,
backward and cross-dressed,
she's a circus girl in a shower of oranges.
She's a fabulous mess
and I wasn't quite at my best when I said
"you look like you'll never leave California."
I felt my fingers inching towards you oh so slow.
We got room to grow.
We got room to grow.
And I want to find out all the things the chaos brings.
There's something in you I believe in,
cause there's something in you I believe in.

I can't see the floor from the clothes from the night before
and we lay in a bed that's never made.
When she lets herself go she's like no one you'll ever know.
It was true then what I said to you a long time ago.
We got room to grow.
We got room to grow.
And I'll take you in no matter what your chaos brings.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.

Get Me Out Of Here

I just kicked out the floor lights, but the spotlight operator's
Shining shame on all my chosen words
and my hip parading I can see him start to sneer

Get me out of here
Get me out of here

And what started out in earnest now seems more like a jest
And who was your concrete hero, is now an uninvited guest
And the floor seats are sensing fear

Get me out of here
Get me out of here

Could be the greatest rockstar ever
if you [?]
Cause it's a wilderness
It's like a wilderness

And the band said, come to,
we're waiting up for you,
yeah they're waiting up for you,
and you're backstage in the dark. Yeah.
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
Well I think I lost my spark.

My damsel with the dowry,
walked into the hotel belry.
Some Junior banker's lusty conquest.
And I'm too shocked to shed a tear.

Get me out of here.
Get me out of here.
Could be the greatest rockstar ever
Who needs a new address.

Come to,
we're waiting all for you,
yeah they're waiting all for you,
is everything alright?
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
You're a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.

To a busted [?]
Gold dig get rich,
to leftover peas and a note on the fridge.
She took the keys and tony supremes
but the message is clear,
get me outta heeeere.

Crashing in the backstage the show's a smashing great success, thank you darling.
The band's a gateway drug and I'm a tragic mess.
But one more time the light's they fade in
This song's for you, my bashful maiden,
who's face looked like my wife
is now as cold and calculated
as that surgeon's knife

somebody's surgeon knife
somebody's surgeon knife

The band said come to,
we're waiting all for you,
yeah they're waiting all for you,
is everything alright?
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
You're a creature of, the greatest rockstar ever.

[?]
Cause it's hard to get it right
when you're a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.

Clouds

I forget all my dreams
I forget everyones name I meet
I forget about time and space
But I can't stop thinking 'bout your face
I can't stop thinking 'bout your face

Clouds are rolling by
I open my mouth and I breathe them right in
All my thoughts stoop away
But I can't stop thinking 'bout your face
I can't stop thinking 'bout your face

Oh, I won't stop
Til you knock on my door
Won't stop
Til you knock on my door

I forget this and that
I forget about the shit that doesn't matter
My memory could be erased
And I'd still be thinking 'bout your face

Oh, I won't stop

Won't stop

Blade

I took my blade, and I cut him deep
And the blood bloomed red on his crisp white shirt
For your party guests to see
I could've run in the night
I could've slit his throat in his sleep
But I wanted you to see
The company you keep

I thought we went together like violence on a balmy night
I thought being alone with a violent man made you feel alright
Can we get away tonight?

And your father said follow the money to the source
That's what life is all about
Then you f*ck the source
Till the money comes out

You say that I'm a brute
Cause I fell faster than you
But I've got a heart that's true
And there's nothing that I won't do
To get away with you

Smile lights the slander in her eyes
She's the dark clouds swirling in my skies
And the cocktail chatter all starts to dim
Like a doppler away from me she spins
On a bloom light sea she starts to swim
She betrayed me, all now on a whim
To get away with him

I took my blade
But I couldn't get it all to drain
I could see him bleeding differently
Like teardrops in the rain

Dopamine

Wanna feel that stream of dopamine
Wanna feel that stream of dopamine

I mixed up so terribly
Your body language talking over me
And it might not be logical
But baby my mind just won't let you leave

And I'm craving your taste under my tongue everyday
Keep the forbidden fruit coming my way
I wanna feel your sugar in my veins
Baby just wanna feel

Wanna feel that stream of dopamine
Wanna feel that stream of dopamine
You sip what the devil's drinking
Hot as hell and I'm thinkin'
Baby, baby, baby can you take away my pain
Baby, baby, baby can you take away my pain

Baby I don't wanna think about it
All I wanna be is under your control
Inside of your spell, locked in your eyes
Under your influence, don't let me go

And I'm craving your taste under my tongue everyday
Keep the forbidden fruit coming my way
I wanna feel your sugar in my veins
Baby just wanna feel

Wanna feel that stream of dopamine
Wanna feel that stream of dopamine
You sip what the devil's drinking
Hot as hell and I'm thinkin'
Baby, baby, baby can you take away my pain
Baby, baby, baby can you take away my pain

Laying in your ecstasy I'm floating away [x2]

Wanna feel that stream of dopamine

Overnight Sensation

The sun is falling down outside the city walls
She's glowing like the cherry on my cigarette
Beaten sweater, diamonds dripping down her neck
I cannot take my eyes off her silhouette

Immaculate creation
Overnight sensation
God you really outdid yourself with this one
She's an overnight sensation

You look like you should be a centerfold
But I'm talking Playboy 1974
They sure don't make them like you anymore
Read between your tan lines, forevermore

Immaculate creation
Overnight sensation
God you really outdid yourself with this one
She's an overnight sensation

The sun is rising up outside this balcony
She's blooming like a flower laying next to me

All These Things

My mom recovered - alcoholic
Gave me opera and Jackson Pollock
Said all these things, all these things are yours
She said you're not blessed, and you're not cursed
In the end you write your verse
Yeah all these things, all these things are yours

Let that feeling born in shadow
Let it make you, make you strong
And the demons you've got to carry
carry you on, and on, and on

John Coltrane's addict ways
Took us all to better days
Said all these things, all these things are yours
Am I right? Am I wrong?
In the end just write your song
Cause all these things, all these things are yours

Let that feeling born in shadow
Let it make you, make you strong
And the demons you've got to carry
Carry you on, and on, and on

Cause all these things, all these things are yours
All these things, all these things are yours
All these things, all these things are yours

What happened to you man
I've been there too
Cause all these things, all these things are yours

Let that feeling born in shadow
Let it make you, make you strong
And the demons you've got to carry
Carry you on, and on, and on

Let that feeling that you carry
Nah nah nah

Exiles

The studio's red lights are a smoke-filled screen
Trying to find the sound, I can't say what I mean
Are we breaking up the band? The naturals of dark arts
I think we like the feeling of falling apart

Well I remember everything I said
And I don't take it back
In the silence of this breakup all my cracks are exposed
And then the night goes black on black

Cause I recognize something in you
that makes me feel I'm not alone
I recognize something deeper than I've ever known
And we'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles
We are exiles

A kitchen light at midnight, our [?] mates are asleep
Before she makes me go, it's about to go deep
You're gonna miss us when we grow up
I miss your sweetness and your grief
And I may be a mystery, but you were beyond belief

When Ziggy Stardust plays at a karaoke bar
And I can't remember the DJ's name
Everyone knows who you are and
We'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles

We are exiles
We're exiles so
We are exiles so slow
We're exiles

Come and sing it out
You're the next best thing to the devil
Come and sing it out at the crossroads
At the crossroads, yeah

Cause I recognize something in you
that makes me feel I'm not alone
And I recognize something deeper than I've ever known
And we'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles
We are exiles

Fool

I go walking each night
Get a physical reaction
When you're on the path and my mind
Metaphysical attraction
Call it a curse from the full moon
Flowing in my bloodstream
I can feel it like a monsoon
Hovering above me

Oh, but I don't mind it
I can't escape the air
The wind always brings me the scent of her hair

All kinds of crazy you're making me
I can't keep my mind off you
Got me losing my cool
Got me acting like a fool
Fool, fool
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Fool, fool
Like a fool

I go walking seaside, hear the music of the ocean
Swimming through the wreckage of my mind in the deepest of emotions

Oh, but I don't mind it
Watching you in the sand
The thought of you slipping through the cracks of my hands

All kinds of crazy you're making me
I can't keep my mind off you
Got me losing my cool
Got me acting like a fool
Fool, fool
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Fool, fool
Like a fool

All kinds of crazy you're making me
I can't keep my mind off you
Got me losing my cool
Got me acting like a fool
Fool, fool
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Fool, fool
Like a fool
Fool, fool
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Rolling In The Roses

Breaking the windows, to my soul
The playground in my heart
Is out of my control
All the children in my blood
Are laughing and they're singing
And they're jumping in the mud

Is there a demon under my bed?
I saw it in a movie once
And now it's in my head
Don't try to trick me to fall into love
I step on all the cracks
Cause I'm a superstitious punk

Rolling in the roses
Pocket full of explosives
Watch out it's gonna blow

Shot into the sky
No choice but to fly

I'm ready to burn it to the ground
The walls are made of paper
And I'm hearing every sound
Don't you get it?
It's all a joke
All the mirrors are broken
And we're breathing in the smoke

Rolling in the roses
Pocket full of explosives
Watch out it's gonna blow

Shot into the sky
No choice but to fly

Shot into the sky
No choice but to fly
Straight into the sun
Won't stop till you come

Rolling in the roses
Rolling

Shot into the sky
No choice but to fly
Straight into the sun
Won't stop till you come

Say It

If I tell you what I really want, you just say shut up
You don't really wanna hear it, no
I try to be resolute, you reduce it down to cute
I tell you you're a coward, you say I'm a prostitute
When the mascara's dry, I know you've got something to hide

Can't you just say it, say it, say it, say it one time?
Speak your mind
Say it, say it, say it, I would show up with someone else
What's a pact[?] when you're yourself

I tell you what I want, but I keep it kinda cryptic
I'm a zoetrope[?] decipher on the tip of a triptych
Tell you what you want
Tell you what I need but I hate you if you miss it
I'd like to take a stranger's face in my hands
And kiss the taste of nowhere to hide
Yeah the taste of nowhere to hide

I want you to say it, say it, say it, say it one time
Speak your mind
Say it, say it, say it - here comes the breakdown
What's a life when there's no one around?

Say it, say it, say it - what's going on here?
I swear you'll disappear if you don't say it, say it, say it
[?] or speak no more

You're just a cheap lout
You're just an escape route
But you know, you know, you know
What makes me try again

What's the matter with you?
Were their tunes you wanna do?
You won't let anyone get near
Is it the critics you fear?
Blast them all and cut off your ear
And keep it all in your head
[?] when you're dead no one else can hear
Nothing you write will ever match this
You should go back to that actress
Or the days you lived on a mattress
When everything was new
[?] cursed, and make a gift to the universe
You wanna go? And you'll see me at the show

Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it

A Song For The Stoned Girl In My Bed

This is a song for the stoned girl in my bed
Well your cheeks are rosy and your eyes are red
And I don't need anything else
I'm keeping you all to myself

Look at all the birds watching us through that window
Can't they see we need a moment alone
Oh birdy go fly away home
Come outside and get stoned

This one goes out to the stoned girl in my bed
Baby don't you remember you said
"I don't never get stoned"
Babe when in Rome

Mine

On my mind, I passed my bedtime
No rest at the kingdom
Alone in the place, my heart is away
All that I can think of is
We should get married, we should get married
Let's stop holding back on this
And let's get carried away

Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Cause I got big deals, and I got little things
I've got everything I'm asking for but you
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Let's get carried away
Come right now, you know where I stay

I just wanna say you're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say that you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard your mine, your mine
All I'm really asking for is you
You're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say that you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard you're mine, you're mine
As long as you know who you belong to

From 8 until late I think about you
You own my nights, don't know what to do
I can't get no rest, I can't get no sleep
This whole thing's gone way too deep
And we should

Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Cause I got big deals, and I got little things
I've got everything I'm asking for but you
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Let's get carried away
Come right now, you know where I stay

I just wanna say you're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard you're mine, you're mine
All I'm really asking for is you
You're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say that you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard you're mine, you're mine
As long as you know who you belong to

I gotta pull up on you
You're gonna make me have to pull up on you
Don't go ghost on me I'm gonna go thriller on you
I'm just I'm gonna let my hands do the talking when I see you
Baby girl I miss feeling on you
I miss everything that's real about you
And that's everything about you
That's just how I feel about you
I've been about you and I'm still about you
But we ain't finished talking
I believe it's true

All I'm really asking for is you
