Commitments Lyrics by Straight Lines

Freaks Like Us

0

And your mind is split
Half of you wants to fall but the rest can’t commit, oh no
This room shares a theme from the front to the back
Yeah always be lonely
I hate what you do
But the saddest part is I’ll wake up next to you
You say we’re the same
We’re the movers, the shakers
The heart breakers yeah
Always receiving, always deceiving
You are a friend of mine
You fell in love once but you didn’t like it
Wasting your time when all you want is to be you
Is to be you… my love
You’re young and wild and running free
You’re losing yourself but all you got is me to fall on
And you sit at home
Half of your friends got married in the fear of dying alone
No need to confess
Thank you my dear, take care, good night, god bless
I hate what you think, you can take a horse to water but you can’t make it drink, oh no
Come alive in the dark
Where there is smoke there is fire
So don’t make a spark
Always receiving, always deceiving
You are a friend of mine
You fell in love once but you didn’t like it
Wasting your time when all you want is to be you
Is to be you… my love
You’re young and wild and running free
You’re losing yourself but all you got is me to fall on
And this life has a back door
An escape route that often comes in use
Often comes into use
The shade of the trees is where you plant your needs
Because nothing ever comes to life
Safe with these thoughts you dance with denial
I hope you never come out for me
And your mind is split
Half of you wants to fall but the rest can’t commit, oh no
This room shares a theme from the front to the back
Yeah always be lonely
You fell in love once but you didn’t like it
Wasting your time when all you want is to be you
Is to be you… my love
You’re young and wild and running free
You’re losing yourself but all you got is me to fall on
You’re young and wild and running free
You’re losing yourself but all you got is me to fall on
