Peanuts
Only the rich can live in solitude
The rest of us packed like peanuts
Scratching like rats for food
I know there are quite a few
People in this world who are good, but still
I live alone
In the city
Crouched in the middle of my yard-
Armed to the teeth
With things that I don't need
But I've got debts to repay
So I'll shut myself in all day
And write all night
Because I think that this time
I've got something to say,
I've got something to say.
Because you see this scene
Has piqued a memory
Or maybe just a feeling, I'm not sure
So let's pull off the highway
Feel the wind blow the cars will
Drive by, we'll stare at the stars
'Till our eyes fall out
'Till the world falls down
And the sun comes out
Let's pull off the highway
Because you said you only think of me
When you are drinking, stopped
Taking your pills started lying to me
I'd drive with excitement to be met with doom
We couldn't even breathe in the same room
And we forced it
Until we couldn't stand it
And you lied to me...
So I'll
Shut myself in all day
And write all night
Because I think that this time
I've got something to say,
I've got something to say.
The rest of us packed like peanuts
Scratching like rats for food
I know there are quite a few
People in this world who are good, but still
I live alone
In the city
Crouched in the middle of my yard-
Armed to the teeth
With things that I don't need
But I've got debts to repay
So I'll shut myself in all day
And write all night
Because I think that this time
I've got something to say,
I've got something to say.
Because you see this scene
Has piqued a memory
Or maybe just a feeling, I'm not sure
So let's pull off the highway
Feel the wind blow the cars will
Drive by, we'll stare at the stars
'Till our eyes fall out
'Till the world falls down
And the sun comes out
Let's pull off the highway
Because you said you only think of me
When you are drinking, stopped
Taking your pills started lying to me
I'd drive with excitement to be met with doom
We couldn't even breathe in the same room
And we forced it
Until we couldn't stand it
And you lied to me...
So I'll
Shut myself in all day
And write all night
Because I think that this time
I've got something to say,
I've got something to say.
