Beast Monster Thing (Love Isn’t Love Enough) [Early Mix] Lyrics by Car Seat Headrest

2014

[Intro]
And any remaining interest my friends have in me
Is just “Hey, this animal can talk!"
[Verse 1]
So all your friends are leaving town
You're hiding out in your parents' house
They wonder why you never go to church
Hard to explain why it doesn't work
'Cause you're not living in sin well
But you're not living in health well
And you're a danger to yourself well
And to pedestrians
(How are you doing?)
I co-write my songs with myself
He feels the feelings, I write the words
I co-write my songs with myself
He feels the feelings, I write the words
He writes down his feelings
I say, "What are you doing? Just s—
It's murder, I can't do—"
[Chorus]
"And he never saw the bright lights
And he never had a good time
And he never saw the bright lights
And he never saw the good times"
[Verse 2]
So I sleep in my old loft bed
And search for hope inside my head
But even in my dreams
I know the difference between what I want
And what I got
'Cause what I got is
[Mumbling]
(How are you doing?)
Why’s the door locked?
I’ll be out in a minute, second
Ooh, these are good lyrics
I should charge a dollar per thought and
What I want, what I want
What I want, what I want
What I want, what I want
What I want, what I want
[Bridge]
Love isn't love enough
At least not how I'm making it
Love isn't love enough
I think this is the other thing
(Ah, it must be the system
It's getting me down
It's the system that's causing my problems)
Don't get mad at the system
You can't change the system
Get mad at your lover
You can affect your lover
(Like pulling out nails with the back of the hammer)
(How are you doing?)
[Verse 3]
Spending my money in twelve dollar increments
Milkshake plus tip adds up to more than I think
And I admit my heart is a laughingstock
But that's why, that's why, that's why, that's why, that’s why
'Cause I don’t wanna be perceived, yeah
As a thing you can believe in
I'm an optical illusion
And pretty soon I think I’m leaving
[Chorus]
And he never saw the bright lights
And he never had a good time
And he never saw the bright lights
And he never saw the good times
And he never saw the good times
(And he—and he—good times)
(Never saw—never saw—never—good times)
[Verse 4]
When I stopped laughing and got to thinking
When I stopped laughing at how much we were drinking
When you never called me back
When I was staring at the paint crack
Fun while it lasted but it didn’t last
It was fun while it lasted but it didn’t
It was fun while it lasted but it didn’t last
It was fun while it lasted but it didn’t
Love isn't love enough
There's nothing in the medicine
Love isn't love enough
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
(When? When?)
(When? When?)
Waiting for the clampdown (When?)
Begging to be melted down (When?)
Waiting for the clampdown (When?)
Begging to be melted down (When?)
(When?)
(Like pulling out nails with the back of the hammer
A hammer, a hammer)
Only her voice and bones are left— (When?)
Only her voice and bones are left; at last (When?)
Only her voice, her bones are turned to stone (When?)
Only her voice and bones are left; at last (When?)
Only her voice, her bones are turned to stone (When?)
Only her voice and bones are left; at last (When?)
Only her voice, her bones are turned to stone (When?)
Only her voice and bones are left; at last (When?)
Only her voice, her bones are turned to stone (When?)
Only her voice and bones are left; at last
Only her voice, her bones are turned to stone
Only her voice and bones are left; at last
Only her voice, her bones are turned to stone
Only her voice and bones are left; at last
Only her voice, her bones are turned to stone
