Track Lyrics

Beat Up Car Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You can lie to those white coats, but you can't lie to me
There's a difference between what you want and what you need
Over the rainbow with no end in sight
A rest easy stockpile, the rest of your life in plain sight
It just don't feel right
[Chorus]
So if you're interested, I'll take you anywhere
I'll buy some beat up car and we could get out of here
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere if you want to go
[Verse 2]
I could lie to most anyone, but I can't lie to you
Stalled at the gates and that simply won't do
Under artificial light I drink myself blind
I won't watch you kill yourself
Or leave you here to rot to death of loneliness
[Chorus]
So if you're interested, I'll take you anywhere
I'll buy some beat up car and we could get out of here
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere if you want to go
[Bridge]
A dotted line you'll sign for me
We'll get to work, we'll work for cheap
We'll work for us, we'll work for free
And pray for job security
Show them how it feels to be together
To admit defeat, to revel in the irony
Some place we can be ourself
Won't watch you kill yourself
Or leave you here to rot to death
[Chorus]
So if you're interested
I'll take you anywhere
I'll buy some beat up car and we could get out of here
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere if you want to go
So if you're interested
I'll take you anywhere
I'll buy some beat up car and we could get out of here
Some place we can be ourselves
Won't watch you kill yourself
Or leave you here to rot to death
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere that you want to go
I'll take you anywhere you want to go

It Takes More Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Compact enhancement in your hand
You were lifted from your mind
Floating like a ghost, no sense of self
No sense of time
Smiling slow and steady, you were young and you were free
It used to come so easily
[Chorus]
Now it takes more, and more
It takes more just to feel like it used to
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
It takes more, and more to feel anything at all
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
[Verse 2]
Holy connection, so unexplained, so past control
We spoke all night in a language only we could know
Smiling slow and steady, we were young and we were free
It used to come so easily
[Chorus]
Now it takes more, and more
It takes more just to feel like it used to
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
It takes more, and more to feel anything at all
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
[Bridge]
Seems like every time you’ve got it figured out
You're just figuring out you're wrong
Seems like every time you get to where you’re going
You're wishing you were gone
[Chorus]
Now it takes more, and more
It takes more just to feel like it used to
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
It takes more, and more to feel anything at all
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
[Chorus]
Now it takes more, and more
It takes more just to feel like it used to
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
It takes more, and more to feel anything at all
(I knew right then I’d do it all again, I’d do it all again)
[Instrumental Outro]

They Don’t Have Any Friends Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's a free for all, a first comment served
Half listens and I haven't watched it 'til the end yet
I haven't watched it 'til the end
'Cause you can't stop yourself, you can't stop yourself
Before you could get it for free
Do you remember what that used to mean?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm not angry
I'm not anything at all
I'm not angry
I'm not anything at all
[Chorus]
Why work if you don't have to?
Don't listen, we'll do it for you
'Cause I feel like a bigger man with the upper hand
In those last few seconds before I hit send
[Verse 2]
I keep my head down and hope for a hit
Open the flood gates for all those smug little kids
It's not their fault, they don't have any friends
They can't help themselves
They can't stop themselves
They can't stop themselves
Undressing themselves
Alone in their room
Thinking the only way anyone will ever love them
Is to tell me what I'm doing wrong
[Pre-Chorus 2]
It didn't make you happy
It didn't make you anything at all
But you kept asking
You kept asking for that song
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm not angry
I'm not anything at all
I'm not angry
I'm not anything at all
[Chorus]
Why work if you don't have to?
Don't listen, we'll do it for you
'Cause I feel like a bigger man with the upper hand
In those last few seconds before I hit send
[Pre-Chorus 2]
It didn't make you happy
It didn't make you anything at all
But you kept asking
You kept asking for that song
[Chorus]
Why work if you don't have to?
Don't listen, we'll do it for you
'Cause I feel like a bigger man with the upper hand
In those last few seconds before I hit send

Like You Do Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Came as a surprise
Whistles and bells
And although I was not asking
You offered up your help
[Chorus]
And I ain't ever gonna find another one
I ain't ever gonna find another one
That does me like you did
Like you do, like you've done
[Verse 2]
I was keeping to myself
Waiting on some train
When your heels click clacked the platform
To my heart they did the same
[Chorus]
I ain't ever gonna find another one
I ain't ever gonna find another one
That does me like you did
Like you do, like you've done
[Bridge]
I may not always be the best man
But I'm going to always walk that line
I don't even know what I was saying
You went and changed your mind
As it wouldn't be the first time
You went and changed your mind
[Chorus]
I ain't ever gonna find another one
I ain't ever gonna find another one
That does me like you did
Like you do, like you've done
[Verse 1]
Came as a surprise
Whistles and bells
And although I was not asking
You offered up your help
[Chorus]
And I ain't ever gonna find another one
I ain't ever gonna find another one
That does me like you did
Like you do, like you've done
