Carvel Lyrics by John Frusciante

Shadows Collide with People

2004

[Instrumental Intro]
[Refrain]
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah
[Verse 1]
When I try I force it out
Never looking in, only out
Now is the time for millions to lose
Never the same since I lost you
[Verse 2]
Runnin' me out of town
Wishing the best around
Would only get off my back
Heaven receives you and throws you back
[Hook]
Sending a dummy to my god
Sending a dummy to my god
Sending a dummy to my god
Sending a dummy to my god
[Refrain]
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah (Hey)
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah
Aaah-ah-aaah-ah-aaah
[Verse 3]
Driving to eat a Carvel cake
(Driving to eat, driving to eat, driving to eat)
Somewhere you know isn't where you think
(Driving to eat, driving to eat, driving to eat)
(Aaah, aaah, aaah) Have you gone away?
[Bridge 1]
Have you gone, have you gone away already?
(Come back, come back, come back, come back)
Have you gone, have you gone away already?
(Come back, come back, come back, come back) Yeah!
Have you gone, have you gone away already?
(Come back, come back, come back, come back) Yeah!
Have you gone, have you gone away already? (Yeah)
All the good times are on their way
[Bridge 2]
Up and down, um that's how energy stays alive, yeah!
Up and down, um that's how energy stays alive
And I wouldn't have it any other way (Yeah)
(Wouldn't have it any other way, baby) Yeeeah!
[Instrumental Outro]
