glass animals lyrics ( how to be a human being edition )
❛ daddy was dumb, he said that i’d be something special. ❜
❛ brought me up tough but i was a gentle human. ❜
❛ i can’t get a job so i live with my mom. ❜
❛ i sit in the car and i listen to static. ❜
❛ lean back now. lean back and breathe. ❜
❛ i woke up, lost in boxes outside Tesco. ❜
❛ i look like a bum, sipping codeine coca cola. ❜
❛ i make my own fun in grandmama’s basement. ❜
❛ they said i look mad, said i look wasted. ❜
❛ when i left you, you were young. ❜
❛ i was gone but not my love. ❜
❛ you were clearly meant for more than a life lost in the war. ❜
❛ all i want’s you to be happy. ❜
❛ don’t you know you got my eyes. ❜
❛ i know you can make it right. ❜
❛ now your life is back to fun but you’ll see that’s not for long ‘cause i know you’ll feel the ghost of the memory. ❜
❛ don’t you need me, oh, baby boy? ❜
❛ every time i take a step, we’re moving forwards faster. and lately, i can’t take it. ❜
❛ now my bod’s in tatters. ❜
❛ everything i tried to leave behind is still beside us. ❜
❛ leftover breakfast cereal for lunch. ❜
❛ my girl eats mayonnaise from a jar when she’s getting blazed. ❜
❛ lazy. lying on your belly with a super pump cola. looking at your phone in clothes you’ve worn for three days over. ❜
❛ it hurts to say it’s hopeless and we ain’t gonna make it. ❜
❛ i’m drunk on old cartoons. ❜
❛ sometimes it makes me laugh, sometimes it makes me sad. ❜
❛ you took my hand and you made me run. ❜
❛ why can’t we laugh now like we did then? how come i see you and ache instead? ❜
❛ how come you only look pleased in bed? ❜
❛ let’s climb the cliff edge and jump again. ❜
❛ pineapples are in my head. ❜
❛ i won’t forget how you looked at me then. ❜
❛ i know i’m no sweet prince of love. ❜
❛ why don’t i say it then? i want you all the time. ❜
❛ in the summer, i took my gun and made him go to neverland. ❜
❛ did you say something? what’d you say? was that your voice or was that me? ❜
❛ they’ll never ever let me be. ❜
❛ my heart strings broke and it was me. ❜
❛ in the summer silence, i was getting violent. ❜
❛ in the summer silence, i was doing nothing. ❜
❛ play with me, my love. ❜
❛ lay with me, my dear. ❜
❛ burn through my love. ❜
❛ just like your drugs, i’ve had quite enough or lack thereof. ❜
❛ people stand in line to look at pre-made sandwiches. ❜
❛ people stand in line to buy whatever the McFuck they might want to shove down their foodpipes tonight. ❜
❛ new watch in black gold, new shirt that looks old. big dick and no soul. ❜
❛ people complain about standing in line, people stand in line and they don’t even know why. ❜
❛ when i was young and stupid, my love left to be a rock and roll star. ❜
❛ i wish you could see the wicked truth. ❜
❛ you’re caught up in a rush and it’s killing you. ❜
❛ i settled for a ghost i never knew. ❜
❛ i miss them, don’t you blame me. ❜
❛ i know you don’t but i still try. ❜
❛ i think it’s over now. the bullet hit but maybe not. ❜
❛ i feel so fucking numb. ❜
❛ most people don’t do it the way i do it, very personal. ❜
❛ y’know like whatever, i just like sausage. ❜
❛ one is pretty but the other lies. ❜
❛ i’m the treasure, baby, i’m the prize. ❜
❛ gonna fuck my way through college. ❜
❛ wake me when the bell rings. ❜
❛ i’m gonna sleep ‘cause you live in my day dreams. ❜
❛ i’m filthy and i love it. ❜
❛ i saw Mrs. Moore sleep around with Mr. Keats. ❜
❛ i feel like a new man. ❜
❛ i am a true romantic, free falling love addict. ❜
❛ all your days are gone, sitting on the floor in your underwear, begging me for more. ❜
❛ i don’t love you anymore, they said and ceased to be. ❜
❛ just stop and think a minute. ❜
❛ why don’t you light that cigarette and calm down now? ❜
❛ stop and breathe a second, go back to the very beginning. ❜
❛ that nervous breath you try to hide between the motions. ❜
❛ i want to hold you like you’re mine. ❜
❛ you see the sad in everything, a genius of love and loneliness. ❜
❛ this time you overdid the liquor, this you pulled the fuckin’ trigger. ❜
❛ where went that cheeky friend of mine? ❜
❛ where went that billion dollar smile? ❜
❛ guess life is long when soaked in sadness on borrowed time from Mr. Madness. ❜
❛ you’re gone but you’re on my mind. ❜
