well i've got this vapid job
that i really wanna quit
cause i really hate my boss
and he doesn't give a shit
about you or me
or any of our dreams
or the places that we'll run
when we're stoked on being free
and sometimes i wanna die
but you'd miss me too damn much
it's something sweet you said
when i was too damn drunk
and i love the way we feel
at night
and i hate the way we crumble
other times
and i don't wanna be
quiet anymore
and i don't wanna work
at your store
well i've got this senseless habit
that i really wanna quit
and i'll meet you back in los angeles
'cause we sparked something there
that was magic once before
and i don't wanna die on the
goddamn tile floor
and i paint you in the city
at night
'cause i don't mind that you shake
when you cry
but i don't wanna be quiet
anymore
cause they hate us when we scream
so let's make them hate us more
cause this whole mess is not what
love or life
is made for.
