lyrics

Verse 1:
Take me as a child.
Take me as your lover.
Take me as you please.
I'm worn out and dirty in the back of my best friends car.
Kill me now.
Or kill me later.
I'm feeling used...
And I can't get past these words I'll never say.

Chorus:
Come on, Come on.
Come on, Come on.
Come on, Come on.
We breath emotions.

Verse 2:
No one said you did.
No one said you would.
But we called you a whore...
So would you still kiss me baby when I say these awful things?
I'm past my prime.
So give me sympathy.
This world's a lonely place...
And we can't improve ourselves in just one day.

Bridge:
In 2009 I fell in love with two different girls at different times.
I was young and I still am.
Steely Dan and Cursive was the soundtrack to my late night conversations.
They made me feel naive.
But maybe I tried too hard to get nowhere.
You called my bluff while the coin's in the air.
But maybe I whine too much about nothing.
Can I get it right now?
Will I get it right now?

Outro:
Only three years have passed by, and I'm still a nervous wreck from head to toes.
It's not like I'm unhappy. I just wanna be satisfied with my choices.
Playing songs, then eating food, then going home to bed.
Then getting up the next morning to do it all again.
I don't drink alcohol, so how can I hit on the drunk girl eyeing me?
I get over it, then write a song about my inconveniences .
