Gasoline (Live)
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I bought a car
I had to leave
I watched you disappear from your driver seat
Safe and sound in my new machine
I tally up the miles
Missus, you and me
Vroom vroom gasoline
Vroom vroom gasoline
Vroom vroom gasoline
Woah
[Verse 2]
Welcome to the house of many moods
That can never fool anyone so shall we give a 'tude
That's just how we do
Piece of shit I'm switchin' lanes
I'm about to throw your shit in park
Saw a woman blooming like a rosary in sequential arts
King, The Queen, The Pharaoh
They tell you what to do
So that you can take the arrow
I'm not looking for a lifeboat
When I'm on a route to the sea
A drowned captain is that something that I always wanted to be
Drown in gasoline
[Verse 3]
I'm sick of watching indie bands play every fucking day
Acting like they got some shit to say
But it's all the same
In the desert where the culture is sparse
And there's not a lot of niggas with their hands on guitars
I tried to preach to you
I'm not gonna get down on my knees
And watch you feed
For you've never been a saint
Just a fucker trying to speak to you
Mommy daddy, schooling you
You don't know which one to please do you
Let the gasoline speak for you
[Bridge]
You're full of nightmares
Harriet says this to me as we stand at the outskirts of a party
It feels like we're alone but we're not
Sometimes I get dizzy thinking of all the people I meet in one day
Complicated monsters steeping like teabags in their flaws and vices
I don't know maybe I'm just tired
I don't know maybe I'm just tired
I don't know maybe I'm just tired
I don't know
[Verse 4]
The past is like a collar of hornets around my neck
I've been in the studio since I heard my brother was dead
I let a day pass and another still haven't left
I finally go to visit my mother
I haven't slept
I tried to tell her something from comfort but I'm out of breath
I go back to the studio late cause I couldn't rest
My friends call me to tell me that they're worried that I'm obsessed
I tell them anybody can worry
I'm not impressed
I must have caught a case of the demons
I'm possessed
And not a single one of them are leaving until expressed
Playing for some slight relief
I get dressed
I take the gasoline and I go to the wasps nest
[Instrumental Outro]
