lyrics

Anybody loves forever
People break up all the time, what can we do?
I have no stomach for these damn things.
Didn’t even ask her out, I had no choice.

She squeezed it out of me,
She got me like hypnotized or something worse.
What am I supposed to do?
‘cause she drives me crazy, man.
When I think I’m out, she gets me back again

I thought she was so beautiful
but I’ve been wrong before,
confusing what is sex with love
I feel like I’ve been fishing birds
I thought she was so beautiful
but I’m always so wrong,
confusing what is sex with love
I fear I’m fishing birds

I start with the word “listen”.
The next thing I know I’m in the middle of it
There’s this voice inside me going:
“Do it, man. Keep going. You were almost out”.

It is like a prison break
which is risky ‘cause you know I’m flesh and blood,
I am getting rid of her,
hesitate a little bit.
I just fear I’m right back where I started from.

I thought she was so beautiful
but I’ve been wrong before,
confusing what is sex with love
I feel like I’ve been fishing birds
I thought she was so beautiful
but I’m always so wrong
confusing what is sex with love
I fear I’m fishing birds

I’ll never fall in love, I’ll never fall in love…
