For Dana, to jog her memory
I'm packed and I'm holding
I'm smilin', she's living, she's golden
She lives for me
Says she lives for me
Ovation
Her own motivation
She comes 'round and she goes down on me
And I make her smile
It's like a drug for you
Do ever what you wanna do
Comin' over you
Keep on smiling, what we go through
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
I come on like a freak show takes the stage
We give them the games we play
She said
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say
Goodbye
The sky it was gold, it was rose
I was taking tips of it to my nose, and I wish I could get back there
Some place back there
Smilin' in the pictures you would take
Doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break
It won't stop
I won't come down, I keep stock
With a tick-tock rhythm
A bump for the drop
And then I bumped up
I took the hit that I was given and I bumped again
And then I bumped again
I said
How do I get back there to the place where I fell asleep inside you?
How do I get myself back to the place where you said
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say
Goodbye
I believe in the sand beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling
An earthy feeling
I believe in the faith that grows
And the four right chords can make me cry
And when I'm with you, I feel like I could die
And that would be alright
Alright
And when the plane came in
She said she was crashing
The velvet it rips
In the city we tripped
On the urge to feel alive
But now I'm struggling to survive
Those days you were wearing that velvet dress
You're the priestess, I must confess
Those little red panties
They pass the test
Slides up around the belly
Face-down on the mattress
One
And you hold me
And we're broken
Still it's all that I want to do just a little now
Feel myself heavy as the ground
I'm scared, but I'm not coming down, no, no
And I won't run for my life
She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile
But nothing is alright
Alright
I want something else
To get me through this
Life
Baby
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
The sky it was gold, it was rose
I was takin' tips of it to my nose
And I wish I could get there
Someplace, back there
In the place we use to start our lives
I want something else
I'm smilin', she's living, she's golden
She lives for me
Says she lives for me
Ovation
Her own motivation
She comes 'round and she goes down on me
And I make her smile
It's like a drug for you
