under your collar, where all our tender hearts are
I felt your love, there was no need to look farther
I used to think that all I need to know
is how to be alone
and then you said hello and now I'm bending over backwards
on the mend, once again
if I can't have you I don't want to be friends
and on your front lawn, there's lots to catch you up on
I try to focus, you ask about my new songs
I used to think that all I need to know
is how to write a solo
and then you took me home so I could sing it note for note
if love's a game, then it's begun
I used to play, but now I'd rather be won
and if you don't, I guess that's the end
'cause I don't want to be your friend

a través de ciudades caminando contigo, la
mejor manera de pasar la vida
me dices todo y me prestas tus libros
favoritos, Dávila, Lorca y Paz
no supiste como arde mi amor para ti, y
me acosté tarde deseando que te dije
a través de ciudades caminando contigo, la
mejor manera de pasar la vida
en la mañana despertaba con ganas de quedarme
en cama, sola,
con nadie y nada
a través de ciudades caminando solita
como siempre he sido,
amando, te sigo amando

The Study Of
01:58
|

life's funny, it put you right in front of me
of all the people out there
and now I'm running
I've got to make this appointment,
I never got my period
and I'm scared
I felt something suddenly, why me? what gives
just 'cause he studies poetry don't mean, don't mean
it means a thing to him
later on then, I forget how to function,
I'm crying to my friends
they tell me it's nothing,
I'll find someone or something
that makes me happy again
I felt something suddenly, why me? what gives
just 'cause he studies poetry don't mean, don't mean
it means a thing to him

Achilles

I've got Achilles feelings, you don't really have to tell me
you might share
you could make it easy for me, then I wouldn't
have to act like I don't care
life's unfair
at times it's more than I can bear
but I'm not scared
when you're there
why not believe in destiny, I can't imagine making up my mind
and I've got a really, really good idea
seems like you're not far behind
'cause life's unfair
at times it's more than I can bear
but I'm not scared when you're there
nothing compares
to the feeling of your hands in my hair
and I'm trying not to stare, but I see you everywhere
weak knees, weakness
I've got Achilles feelings, you don't really have to tell me
you might share (you might share)
you could make it easy for me, then I wouldn't
have to act like I don't care (I don't care)
life's unfair
at times it's more than I can bear
but I'm not scared
when you're there
oh, when you're there

well at the time I found it hard to believe
that you could love me, that you could love me
and I'd have given almost anything
to be yours and warm in the cold Northeast
I get the feeling that it could be nice
and that we've got a finite amount of time
but I think it'll suffice
I think you could be mine
you step into the drive
yeah, at the time I found it hard to believe
that you could love me, that it could be real
and now I have to wonder what I was thinking
I would ask myself how I felt, now I feel
I get the feeling that it could be nice
and that we've got a finite amount of time
but I think it'll suffice
I think you could be mine
you step into the drive

Drunk at the Movies
01:20
|
|||
everything's absurd
I won't be in to work
I'd rather be
doing any other thing, like
touch the earth, yeah dig into the dirt
we're at its mercy
invite the future, forget all that I'm used to
and it could end in a moment so I guess
it's just a lesson
to expect the unexpected, 'cause
no one knows what's next
everybody loses, we're all scared of looking stupid
I don't know shit and it is what it is
so let's go cruising
and get drunk at the movies
try to remember to live

In the Wild
01:36
|
|||
I'm in the wild, it's so fun
that being alive is the hardest thing I've ever done
it feels like my soul will never rest sometimes
I'm in the wild and I wanna run
I'm in the wild, I took a walk to the southern side
of downtown. I liked what I saw
I'm in the wild
I fall in love all the time
but you're the only one I really like
I'm in the wild, it's a good one
I'm in the wild, it's so fun
that being alive is the hardest thing I've ever done
it feels like my soul will never rest sometimes
I'm in the wild and I wanna run

If It Were Different
01:26
|

if it were different
I'd love easier, be innocent
I wish it were, but it isn't
I wish it were
different
it wouldn't make much sense, would it?
if it were different
then again,
you don't know how I feel
I'm on the fence
if it were different,
I'd love easier, be innocent
I wish it were
but it isn't
I wish it were
different

I'm sorry I didn't make it to your party
missed out on the morale, that's a bad gal Val
I'm sorry that I'd do it in a heartbeat
I shouldn't but I shall, that's a bad gal Val
I'm sorry that you never found me charming
you only told me now, and I'm bad gal Val
it's funny, I really wonder how
I made it to my twenties, 'cause I'm bad gal Val
yeah I'm bad gal Val
Sorry that I couldn't bother worry
I don't think about it 'cause I'm bad gal Val
and wait, 'cause I'll say it out loud
you might be in a hurry but I'm bad gal Val
bad gal Val got you down? that's okay baby, I'll see you around
I'm sorry I didn't make it to your party
missed out on the morale, that's a bad gal Val
I'm sorry that I'd do it in a heartbeat
I shouldn't but I shall, that's a bad gal Val
I'm sorry that you never found me charming
you only told me now, and I'm bad gal Val
it's funny, I really wonder how
I made it to my twenties, 'cause I'm bad gal Val
ooh wa ooh
