Talk to me now I'm older Your friend told you 'cause I told her Friday nights have been lonely Change your plans and then phone me. We could go and get 40s Fuck goin' to that party Oh really, your folks are away now? Alright, let's go, you convinced me. 12:51 is the time my voice Found the words i sought... Is it this stage I want? The world is shutting out...for us. We were tense for sure, But we was confident... Kiss me now that I'm older I won't try to control you Friday nights have been lonely Take it slow but don't warn me We'd go out and get 40s Then we'd go to some party Oh really, your folks are away now? Alright I'm coming... I'll be right there.

No choice now
it's too late Let him go he gave up I gave up Lisa said Take time for me Dropping him down to his knees I chance down Take me away see I've got to explain Things they are changing in such a permanent way My life seems unreal can we go back to your place Ah you drink too much let me drink just the same People tried felt so right Giving themselves good advice Looking down sometimes felt nice He knows it's just a fact to kill to survive He's earning dollars you won't get in your life Let's suck more blood let's work 3 hours a day The world is over but I don't care cause I am with you now I've got to explain Things they have changed in such a permanent way Life seems unreal can we go back to your place You drink too much makes me drink just the same The first time that I met your friends And the second time I thought it would last We all like it a little different |

I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up Oh Mama running out of luck But like my sister just don't give a fuck I want to steal your innocence To me my life it don't make sense Your strange manners I love you so Why won't you wear your new trench coat I should have worked much harder I should have just not bothered I never show up on weekdays That's something that you learned yesterday Drive you to work so you'll be on time Your little problems they're not yours they're mine Come on listen to what I say I've got some secrets that'll make you stay I just want to turn you down I just want to turn you around You ain't never had anything I wanted but I want it all I just can't figure out Nothing And all together it went well We made pretend we were best friends And then she said Oh you're a freak They ordered me to make mistakes Together again like the beginning It all works somehow in the end The things we did the things you hide But for the records it's all between you and I I didn't take no shortcuts I spent the money that I saved up Oh Mama running out of luck But like my sister just dont give a fuck I want to steal your innocence To me my life it don't make any sense Your strange manners I love you so Why won't you wear your new trench coat I just want to misbehave I just want to be your slave You ain't never had anything I wanted but I want it all I just can't figure out Nothing And all together it went well We made pretned we were best friends And then she said Oh I can't wait They ordered me to make mistakes Together again like the beginning It all works somehow in the end The things we did the things you hide But for the records it's all between you and I |

when hard times opened their eyes Saw pain in a new way High stakes for a few names Racing against sunbeams Losing against their dreams In your eyes, I am Stop, and go In your eyes, I am Stop, and go In your eyes When I saw her for the first time lips moved as her eyes closed Heard something in his voice And i'll be there, he says and he walks out Somehow he was trying too hard to be like them And I am Stop, and go In your eyes, and I am Stop and darling let me go Try it once and they liked it, and try to hide it Says I've been doing this twenty-five years Well I'm not listening no more And these friends they keep asking for more Oh yeah Oh but thats it |
