lyrics

We all want to fall in love but
We don't want to fall for long
No we just want to fall asleep
Drunk every night next to someone

Hug and kiss and always miss them
But never raise our children with them

We all want to live forever
But we don't want to hurt forever
Watch TV and ache all over
Become a burden to each other

Drink to feel some joy again
Then come back down by 10 AM

We all want to have an impact
So after we die we'll have done that
Simple task of making love and
Raising up a baby of

Hopeful mental aptitude
To tell ourselves we've done what we had to do

We just want to feel elated
Drink poison to feel liberated
Kiss our hips to get stimulated
Lock eyes stuck so inundated

Forget our problems and our fears
And the promise of so many years ahead

We just want to grow obsessed with
Anyone who feels electric
When we touch them we feel accepted
Love is just our fears suspended

Anxieties are put away by
Touching ourselves in the right places

We all want to be in love but
We don't want to be for long
Cause eventually we run out of
Romanticizeable life episodes

When we grow old and lose control
Of our bodies and then all our soul
Kissing lips won't feel the same
And eventually we won't know the names

Of people we spent all our lives with
Raising kids and passing time in
Places that we fell in love
And made each other feel so untouchable

And silenced all the nagging voices
In our heads we made our choices with
