Lyrics McCafferty – Burning Vs. Drowning
Text:
They’re bored, that’s why she’s always on her phone
And we could stay here for the weekend, but I know I gotta get back home
She says she hates her last name because it makes her feel like she belongs
Her mother says she’s not her favourite and her brother comes in second maybe third, but she’s in last
In the blacklight I could tell a sick joke
Do you think I’m funny, or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could write your name down
Are we all this desperate? I think the answer is «yes»
And in the blacklight I could tell a sick joke
Do you think I’m funny, or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could write your name down
Are we all this desperate? I think the answer is «yes», oh
In the living room your father says to me
Through quiet simple words that this was meant to be
So I will get my books and you could get the car
And we could sleep here now, she says «I’m glad you broke my heart»
And oh your airsoft gun is loaded and it’s pointed towards my face
And oh your eyes they meet my eyes, and oh your eyes are full of hate
They say «the grass is always greener on the other side»
But sometimes the grass only is green until the grass has finally died
And in the blacklight I could tell a sick joke
Do you think I’m funny, or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could write your name down
Are we all this desperate? I think the answer is «yes»
And in the blacklight I could tell a sick joke
Do you think I’m funny, or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could write your name down
Are we all this desperate? Are we all this desperate?
«Forgot a fill, but, whatever.»
