Here is the money that I owe you
So you can pay the bills I will give you more when I get paid again I hate those people who love to tell you Money is the root of all that kills They have never been poor They have never had the joy of a welfare Christmas I know we will never look back You say you wake up crying Yes and you don't know why You get up and you go lay down inside my baby's room I guess i'm doing ok I moved in with the strangest guy Can you believe he actually thinks that I am really alive I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new I will buy you that big house way up in the west hills I will buy you a new life Yes I will I know all about that other guy The handsome man with athletic thighs I know about all the times before With that obsessive little rich boy They might think you're happy Yeah maybe for a minute or two They can't make you laugh No they can't make you feel the way that I do I know we can never look back Will you please let me stay the night No one will ever know |

I am still livin' with your ghost
Lonely and dreamin' of the west coast I don't wanna be your downtime I don't wanna be your stupid game With my big black boots and an old suitcase I do believe I'll find myself a new place I don't wanna be the bad guy I don't wanna do your sleepwalk dance anymore I just wanna see some palm trees I will try and shake away this disease We can live beside the ocean Leave the fire behind Swim out past the breakers Watch the world die We can live beside the ocean Leave the fire behind Swim out past the breakers Watch the world die I am still dreamin' of your face Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away I don't wanna be your good time I don't wanna be your fallback crutch anymore Walk right out into a brand new day Insane and risin' in my own weird way I don't wanna be the bad guy I don't wanna do your sleepwalk dance anymore I just wanna feel some sunshine I just wanna find some place to be alone Yeah watch the world die |
