the four right chords can make me cry

semi-charmed life - third eye blind

I'm packed and I'm holding
I'm smiling, she living, she golden
she lives for me, says she lives for me
ovation, oh what a motivation
she comes round and she goes down for me

And i make her smile, like a drug for you
do ever what you wanna do, coming 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
coming like a freak show takes the stage
we give them the games they play she say

i want something else
to get me through this
semi-charmed kinda life
baby baby
i want something else
i'm not listening when you say
goodbye

the sky was gold, it was rose,
i was taking sips of it through my nose
and i wish i could get back there, some place back there
smiling in the pictures you would take
doing crystal myth will lift you up until you break. it wont stop
I wont come down, i keep stock
with a tick tock rhythm, a bump for drop
and then i bumped up
i took the hit that i was giving and about to get
about to get she 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 kinda 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
when im with you i feel like i could die and that would be alright
alright

when the plane came in she said she was crashing
the velvet that rips in the city we tripped
on the urge to feel alive
but now im struggling to survive
those days you were wearing that velvet dress
you're the priestess i must confess
those little red panties they passed the test
slides up around the belly face down on the mattress
one
and you hold me
and we are broken
still its all that i wanna do just a little now
feel myself, ten feet off the ground
i'm scared, but im not coming down, no no
and i wont 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
not listening when you say
goodbye
goodbye
goodbye

goodbye

the sky was gold, it was rose
i was taking sips of it through my nose
and i wish i could get back there
someplace back there
in the place we used to fly
