Paroles de 'Flashlight' par The Front Bottoms

Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you
And hang them in my room
So when I'll wake up I'll be like, "Yeah, everything's all right"
You are still here, you are still happy
You are still smiling and laughing
You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life

And it goes in, in, out through the mouth
Breathing exercises I will never figure out
So I am running in circles or
Walking in circles or
Crawling in circles or
Lying on the ground

And I
Can hear your dog whistle from my bedroom
And I
Can see a flashlight cutting
Up the trees behind my house

She says a lot of the kids we graduated with are now homeless
Which puts them in mad shady situations with mad shady people
If not everyday, then on an every-other-day basis
And she's probably with a few of them right now
And they are probably just drinking and talking about
How she misses gettin' fucked up and hangin' around

And he says, "Hey, you're good at that"
And she says, "Thanks, it's kind of all I got"
And then she looks away and says, "It's also all I need"
And I can smell plastic burning
I can smell chemicals breaking down
I got your last three e-mails
The ones where you said
"I was sorting some things out"

And he will be able to hear her dog whistle from his bedroom
And I
Can see a flashlight cutting
Up the trees behind my house
And I will read the flashing
Like a Morse code explanation
Though it'll mean nothing
But take all night to figure out, out, out

I am sad, I am sad
And I am happy, oh, God, I'm happy
There's just no place in between for us to meet
But I am sad, I am sad
But when I am happy, oh God, I'm happy
There's just no place in between for us to meet

When I am sad, oh God, I'm sad
But when I'm happy, I am happy
And there's just no place in between for us to meet
When I am sad, oh God, I'm sad
But when I'm happy, I am happy
And there's just no place in between for us to meet
