lyrics

Woke up this morning and still I cried
Maybe it's impossible but still I tried to stop
Time to grasp that the world outside might hate you
If you love who you want to love
It's a trap in my own brain
(How did it feel)
When you found your lucky vein?

I could be your boyfriend
I could be your girlfriend
Pick you up at night time
Make out til the night ends
I want to be your boyfriend
I want to be your girlfriend
See you at the night show
See you dressed in nice trends
Do you want to leave the show now?
It's getting kind of boring
Your dad said home by 10 PM girl
I'll have you home by morning
I don't have a home
I don't have a car
I have cigarettes and drugs
Can we make out in your car?

It's a trap in my own brain
(How did it feel?)
When you found your lucky vein
