[offset:0] |
[00:01.19] |
Are you frightened by |
[00:02.30] |
The weight you possess Oh |
[00:04.14] |
|
[00:04.87] |
Is this life just weightlessness |
[00:06.24] |
|
[00:06.89] |
And smoggy twilight in LA |
[00:09.68] |
|
[00:11.14] |
I can't think of one real thing to say |
[00:14.20] |
And you and me are walking |
[00:15.94] |
In the canyons |
[00:16.86] |
|
[00:17.97] |
She forgets that we were friends |
[00:19.91] |
|
[00:20.49] |
I guess it all depends on your mood |
[00:23.64] |
|
[00:25.45] |
Why can't these meds be any damn good |
[00:28.61] |
|
[00:30.54] |
And she said why can't you be |
[00:34.17] |
Like my Waterpik shower massager |
[00:35.97] |
|
[00:37.17] |
A sweet reliable machine |
[00:40.59] |
|
[00:41.87] |
And to tell the truth |
[00:43.12] |
I don't feel less alone |
[00:45.07] |
|
[00:45.89] |
A water massager's the purest love |
[00:48.56] |
I've ever known |
[00:49.69] |
|
[00:51.80] |
Why can't you be like |
[00:53.28] |
|
[00:56.07] |
When I was thirteen |
[00:57.57] |
|
[00:58.34] |
And I said why can't you be |
[01:00.40] |
|
[01:01.72] |
Like an art house foreign movie |
[01:03.43] |
|
[01:04.39] |
Frank and sexy red balloons and ennui |
[01:08.20] |
|
[01:09.12] |
And allude to me and why can't you be |
[01:12.85] |
|
[01:14.97] |
A little more of a mystery |
[01:17.19] |
|
[01:17.81] |
Why can't you be the part of me |
[01:21.09] |
|
[01:21.61] |
That's missing |
[01:22.23] |
|
[01:23.00] |
Instead of leaving me for some other |
[01:25.12] |
|
[01:25.94] |
Said we're perfect for each other |
[01:28.09] |
|
[01:28.88] |
And I know we won't go spend |
[01:32.03] |
This life alone |
[01:35.62] |
|
[01:36.33] |
And she said why can't you be |
[01:38.77] |
|
[01:39.90] |
Like an outsourced government contract |
[01:42.63] |
I'm a fat cat getting away with anything |
[01:46.04] |
|
[01:47.19] |
Kicking some secret special powers |
[01:50.25] |
|
[01:50.80] |
Illumination rounds in showers |
[01:53.53] |
|
[01:55.28] |
'Cause you're tearing your hair out |
[01:56.78] |
|
[01:58.11] |
While we can have a bed of flowers |
[02:00.08] |
|
[02:00.96] |
And I said why can't you be |
[02:03.42] |
|
[02:04.45] |
Like the chicks out on the road |
[02:06.53] |
Some girls are happy just to see me |
[02:09.91] |
'Cause you got moxy and a broken nose |
[02:12.80] |
Take 'em away from this prose |
[02:14.92] |
|
[02:15.75] |
Sometimes a blow job's not enough |
[02:18.59] |
|
[02:20.38] |
Why can't you play a little less rough |
[02:25.61] |
|
[02:26.69] |
Why can't you be the part of me |
[02:30.39] |
That's missing |
[02:30.91] |
|
[02:31.73] |
Instead of leaving me for some other |
[02:33.84] |
|
[02:34.74] |
Say we're perfect for each other |
[02:36.86] |
|
[02:37.99] |
And I know we won't go spend |
[02:40.98] |
This life alone |
[02:44.53] |
|
[02:50.24] |
Can we just leave it be |
[02:57.39] |
|
[03:02.52] |
We could live our lives separately |
[03:09.67] |
|
[03:14.55] |
Could you forget what happens to you |
[03:19.16] |
|
[03:20.82] |
To you and me |
[03:21.95] |
|
[03:26.87] |
When we're dead and we'll be dead |
[03:31.38] |
|
[03:32.48] |
We'll have eternity |
[03:33.83] |
|
[03:37.84] |
And I will spend it all missing you |
[03:43.54] |
|
[03:45.05] |
Missing you and me |
[03:46.11] |
|
[03:50.05] |
So while I'm alive I will always be |
[03:58.84] |
|
[04:03.86] |
Seeking you out digging you out |
[04:06.36] |
Wondering about how it goes |
[04:08.57] |
So far down |
[04:09.45] |
And what's wrong with you |
[04:10.58] |
|
[04:11.77] |
What's wrong with you and me |
[04:13.48] |
|
[04:15.35] |
And she said why can't you be |
[04:17.85] |
|
[04:18.46] |
Someone looking deeper into me |
[04:21.06] |
|
[04:21.86] |
Like JD Salinger |
[04:23.57] |
|
[04:24.32] |
Why do I challenge her |
[04:26.74] |
In all these selfish ways |
[04:28.86] |
That you displease |
[04:29.80] |
|
[04:30.72] |
Why can't you be a little more at ease |
[04:35.09] |
Well why can't you be |
[04:37.85] |
|
[04:38.81] |
Like a hand rolled cigarette |
[04:40.94] |
I'm not joking |
[04:41.75] |
|
[04:42.58] |
This masochistic self-pity of smoking |
[04:47.27] |
|
[04:48.22] |
And this city ditty |
[04:49.66] |
|
[04:50.66] |
I keep provoking you to leave me |
[04:54.09] |
|
[04:56.67] |
And she said |
[04:57.30] |
|
[04:57.93] |
Why can't you be like a candle |
[05:01.02] |
I can snuff |
[05:01.98] |
|
[05:02.80] |
You're still the diamond in the rough |
[05:05.11] |
|
[05:06.11] |
And I swear to God I've had enough |
[05:09.60] |
|
[05:10.22] |
How can I call your bluff |
[05:16.28] |
