Julian Casablancas - Out of the Blue lyrics

Somewhere along the way
My hopefulness turned to sadness
Somewhere along the way
My sadness turned to bitterness
Somewhere along the way
My bitterness turned to anger
Somewhere along the way
My anger turned to vengeance
And the ones that I made pay were
Never the ones who deserve it
And the ones who deserve it
They'll never understand it
Yes, I know I'm going to
Hell in a purple basket
'Least I'll be in another world while
You're pissing on my casket

How could you be, whoa oh ohh
So perfect for me? Oh oh ohh
Why can't you ignore, oh oh ohh
The things I did before? Oh oh ohh

Somewhere along the way
Exacting vengence gave excitement
Somewhere along the way
That excitement turned to pleasure
Somewhere along the way
That pleasure turned to madness
But sooner or later that kind
Of madness turns into pain
And the ones that I made pay were
Never the ones who deserved it
Those who helped me along the way
I smacked 'em as I thanked 'em
Yes, I know I'm going to
Hell in a leather jacket
'Least I'll be in another world while
You're pissing on my casket

All that I can do is sing
A song of faded glory and all you got to do
Is sit there, look pretty
And make 'em horny
Together we'll sing songs and
Tell exaggerated stories
About the way we feel today and
Tonight and in the morning

How could you be, oh oh ohh
So perfect for me? Oh oh ohh
Why can't you ignore, oh oh ohh
The things I did before? Oh oh ohh

And take all your fears
Pretend they're all true
And take all your plans
Pretend they fell through

Now, that's what it's like oh oh ohh
That's what it's like for most
People in this world
The rich or the poor, oh oh ohh
Muslims or Jews, oh oh ohh
When roles are reversed, oh oh ohh
Opinions are too ooh oh ohh

That's all I'm gonna say now
Right before they come knocking
On my door now no, no, no, no
