These Are My Ghosts - I'd Rather Just Die Lyrics

I am alone, just sitting by the seaside
Up comes a girl; she's looking to see
Why do I cry so?
She sits at my beside
Gives me a hug
And she cries with me

"Jenny, I've got something on my mind"
"Do you think you'd like to be mine?"
She helps me up when it starts to rain
I may be just a boy but I kiss her the same
I may be just a boy but I love her the same

God damn! God damn... God damn!

We sit with our knees up
Watch the sky burning
Me and my girl on the Fourth of July
Jenny looks over
I know what she's thinking
I show her my back and wish her goodbye

Late in the evening
I go home to my mother
Tell her, "I've found the girl of my dreams!"
She says, "My son, you ain't ready for a lover
You sure ain't no man as far as I've seen"

I run to the ocean because I'm starting to cry
"If I can't have my love, well, I'd rather just die!"

I'd rather just die
I'd rather just die
I'd rather just die
I'd rather just die!

God damn! God damn... God damn!
