Bed

You were gonna let me go
No guts to tell me yourself
Go ahead and rub my nose in it
You can't fire me because i quit

You make me feel invisible
Well, surely you see me now
Strecthed out on the floor of your house
Foaming at the mouth
With a needle in my arm
Next to a smoking gun
And an empty razor case
And a note that says :

"dear jack i hate you. love, diane"
"dear jack i hate you. love, diane"
"dear jack i hate you"
I said yeah yeah yeah waouh.

The neighborhood is gonna watch me
As i create the great finale
A perfect swan dive out the window
Crash the car off the road

You're not gonna miss me
But you're gonna remember my body
Crumpled in a heap in the middle of your street.

Clean up your mess x4

Finally you're carrying me
Over the threshold try to revive me
With a cold compress but it's too late
I guess your best just isn't good enough
When every warm embrace
It was a selfish act
And every smiling face
It was a trap
You shit
You stabbed me in the back

"dear jack i hate you. love, diane"
"dear jack i hate you. love, diane"
"dear jack i hate you"
I said yeah yeah yeah waouh.

Clean up my mess x4

I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day
I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day.

I screwed it up again.
I made another friend
A desperado
Named "trouble"

He showed his gun to me
He took my money
I think i understand
What makes a boy become
A bad man.

I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day
I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day.

To suffer greatly
From the indignity
Of working for a living
Why would i want to breed?

And the monotony
Driving me crazy
I shouldn't rock the boat
I think my head's about to explode.

I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day.
I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day.

I lost my head.
I made my bed all by myself
Now i don't sleep in it so well.

I'm taking off my dress
But you won't touch me now
This room is such a mess
I really don't know how
To be the perfect girl
But in a perfect world
I'd give you what you need
And you'd be giving me
Another chance.

I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day.
I ask myself why did i run away?
I guess maybe i was having a bad day.

I lost my head.
I made my bed all by myself
Now i don't sleep in it so well.

This can't be real
I've never seen so much
This must be a joke.

I don't know how to feel
I haven't earned it yet
Everything fades so fast.

Let's buy a car with cash and crash it
Buy her the rock she always wanted
Throw money out the window
And watch the happy people catch it.

You can't afford to save your life
Well, i can.
I'll send you to a posh rehab
So you can get clean and it won't be so bad.
Let's buy guitars for all the kids.
I don't want to wake up wondering where it all went.

Nobody can stop us from blowing it all.
It's mine and besides, they never cared what i did.

And it doesn't matter where you go
And it doesn't matter where you are.

Nobody can stop us from blowing it all.
It's mine and besides, they never cared what i did.

Let's do it now while we still can
Before they take it away
Take it back

Check us out checking in
Ordering room service
We'll have one of everything
And we'll leave a one hundred percent tip.

Nobody can stop us from blowing it all
It's mine and, besides, they've never cared what i'm saying.

Nobody can stop us from blowing it all.
It's mine and, besides, they've never cared.

They've never cared.
They never cared x7

The gauge is on "e"
I'm gripping the wheel
The map is so hard to read
I can't see the road
I can only see

From my hand to my mouth
From right here to the ground
But i'm too far gone to go back

Where will it end?
My weary eyes
On the space
Right in front of me.
My mind imagining
Love and empathy
Or just some company saying

Don't let go
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Don't you know i know?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Oh don't let go.

An angel takes the wheel
I climb into the backseat
And get under the blanket where sleep can bathe me in dreams
With a warm humming engine and spacemen three
Sleeping with jesus
I just need to rest.

And i cry like a baby
Who fell out of the cradle
A feeling of release
How hard can it be
To speak clearly?

Don't let go
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Don't you know i know?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Oh don't let go.

Pull over and get out
You're down, clinging to the earth
You want the world to stop
Discover unknown reserves
Get up, brush off the dirt
Get back in

And don't let go.
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Don't you know i know?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Don't let go
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Oh it's such a long road
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ...
Oh don't let go.

You won't meet me in the middle
Push me off the dividing line
You won't give a little
What good graces?
No explanation for your change of heart
You left the inside out
You get a little or a lot
You're either cold or you're hot
A ceiling of clouds
The tall buildings are walls
I'm walking around and i can't get out
The general fatigue of a private person trying to talk to you
You saw the movie, you don't need to read the book
A masterpiece or a piece of shit.
You're either stealing or you're taken.

You're so down on me
I think it is a fad so i don't feel so bad anymore.
You're so down on me
I think it is a fad so i don't feel so bad anymore.

You buy the pound just to burn it down
And watch the sleeping dogs die
Walk away unscathed
I'm going to take you off my thank-you list
"will you ever get your shit together?"

Hookers and virgins, sluts and nuns
What if i am neither one?

You're so down on me
I think it is a fad so i don't feel so bad anymore
You're so down on me
I think it is a fad so i don't feel so bad anymore.

You're so down on me
I think it is a fad so i don't feel so bad anymore
You're so down on me
I think it is a fad so i don't feel so bad anymore.

The guest of honor cries
Tars of joy and pride
But someone's waiting in the wings to steal your fire
And i don't want to ruin the surprise
That your house on the beach
Will fall into the sea.

Live it up 'cause you're going down
Live it up 'cause you're going down
Live it up 'cause you're going down

This reign can't last
It'll all dry up so fast
The planets are flying past you
You think it's only natural
That the world will stop
And wait for you
And wait for you if you fall off.

Live it up 'cause you're going down
Live it up 'cause you're going down
Live it up 'cause you're going down

We fantasize of your demise
We lie in wait, we salivate
Visualizing your head on a plate.

You're sinking in the mud
They put the pedestal on
Hold on to your jewels
You can hawk them later
A variation on a theme :
You're not missing anything.

Live it up 'cause you're going down
Live it up 'cause you're going down
Live it up 'cause you're going down.
