Paratrooper

(album: Tantrum Castle - 2008)

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh baby, tell me "Don't stay home," no
Oh, oh, oh

Such great indulgence, it made me laugh
And I will say, "I don't think" and I'll pass around the room
But I just don't see you
You are the inside, outside epitome of what it looks like

So be a wreck while on the bathroom floor
It's fun, it's quick, just baby take it, take it slow
And don't you think about the show
That chapter's gone, you smoked it out and out and to the door

Whoa, whoa
So when you come back down
You know that I'll be waiting for you
I only hope that you won't forget my name, (my name, name, name)

Breakdown to third street, and how we'd scream
They kept us solid, it kept us crazy, kept us clean
But now we cling to different scenes
See, one stays awake while the other's a dream

With the level of incompetence
And the look in your eyes, the look in your eyes is plain
He's awake and he's breathing
I'm awake and my chest is heaving, heaving, now I'm leaving, leaving

If you can't speak I want your tongue tied (tongue tied, tongue tied)

Let me go and break
Everyone here is awake
Everyone here is in touch
Everyone here is a fake like
You, you, you, you, you, you
(oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

Whoa, whoa
So when you come back down
You know that I'll be waiting for you
I only hope that you won't forget my name, (my name, name, name, name)

The reason I won't watch you change your name
Hearts of spades
