Are you frightened by the weight you possess
Is this life just promise-less
The smoggy twilight in LA

I can't think of one right thing to say
Robbie williams is walking in the canyons
Forgets that we were friends

I guess it all depends on your mood
Why can't these meds be any damn good


And she said
Why can't you be
Like a waterpik shower massager

A sweet reliable machine
To tell the truth
She don't feel less alone

Water massager's the purest love she's ever known
Why can't you be
When I was 13

Why can't you be
Like an art house foreign movie
Frank and sexy, red balloons and ennui

And allude to me
Why can't you be
A little more of a mystery

Why can't you be
The part of me that's missing
Instead of leaving me for some other

Said we're perfect for each other

Why can't you be

Like an outsourced government contract
And I'm a fat cat
Gettin' away with anything

Kicking some secret special powers
Illumination round it showers
And your tearing your hair out

While we can have a bed of flowers
Why can't you be
A little more in love than in lust

When it's just the two of us
Sometimes a blowjob's not enough
Why can't you be

A little less rough

Why can't you be

The part of me that's missing
Instead of leaving me for some other
Say we're perfect for each other

And I wanna spend my life with her

Me

My life
Separately
I knew you

Could you forget about me and live alone

When we're dead, we will have eternity.

And I will, and I will
Be with you and you with me


So while I'm alive
I will always be


Why can't you be
A little more deep into me
Like JD Salinger

Why do I challenge her
In all its purpose
Ways that you must prove

Why can't you be
A little more release
Why can't you be

Like a hand rolled cigarette
I'm not choking
This !@%@ic self-pity of smoking

And this city dew
I keep provoking you to leave me
She said
Why can't you be
Like a candle I can snuff

You're still a diamond in the rough
And I swear to god I've had enough
How can I call your bluff?
