The Perks of Listening To the Wallflowers Lyrics by Movies About Animals

Movies About Animals

2013

We never thought about it then
We were young and innocent
We always swore we had a plan
But that was thrown against the wind
When I'm not being forced to breathe
You might lie here next to me
If you could see the world I see, what would you think?
What would you say?
And would you understand my one tight-lipped demand?
When you're driving home
Would you prefer from one dead end to another?
Could you take just one wrong turn
A leap of faith, one less bridge burned?
It's not what you had planned, but it's what makes you happy
It grows inside our heads and breeds dependency
What will set us free?
We never thought about it then
We were young and innocent
We always swore we had a plan
But that was thrown against the wind
Replace my car's dead battery with hollow bones and idle dreams
In an attempt to make both run a thousand miles an hour
When I'm not being forced to breathe
You might lie here next to me
If you could see the world I see, what would you think?
What would you say?
And would you understand?
And would you understand?
Took one step and crossed the line
Bad intentions turned on a dime
How did things get to be so fucking confusing?
(I'm sorry, I'm not sorry)
You said yourself it's nothing other than loneliness
(It's nothing, it's nothing)
We never thought about it then
We were young and innocent
We always swore we had a plan
But that was thrown against the wind
We never thought about it then
We were young and innocent
We always swore we had a plan
But that was thrown against the wind
And it came back different
