McCafferty - Burning Vs. Drowning lyrics

[McCafferty - Burning Vs. Drowning lyrics]

They're bored
That's why she's always on her phone
And we could stay here for the weekend
But I know I gotta get back home
She says she hates her last name because
It makes her feel like she belongs
Her mother says she's not her favourite and
Her brother comes in second maybe third
But she's in last
And she will always be in last

In the blacklight I could tell a sick joke
Do you think I'm funny
Or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could
Write your name down
Are we all this desperate? I
Think the answer is "yes"
And in the blacklight I could
Tell a sick joke
Do you think I'm funny
Or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could
Write your name down
Are we all this desperate? I
Think the answer is "yes"
Oh

In the living room your father says to me
Through quiet simple words that this
Was meant to be
So I will get my books and
You could get the car
And we could sleep here now
She says "I'm glad you broke my heart"
And oh your airsoft gun is loaded
And it's pointed towards my face
And oh your eyes they meet my eyes
And oh your eyes are full of hate
They say "the grass is always
Greener on the other side"
But sometimes the grass only is green
Until the grass has finally died

And in the blacklight I could
Tell a sick joke
Do you think I'm funny
Or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could
Write your name down
Are we all this desperate? I
Think the answer is "yes"
And in the blacklight I could
Tell a sick joke
Do you think I'm funny
Or was it something else
And in the bathroom I could
Write your name down
Are we all this desperate? Are
We all this desperate?

"Forgot a fill, but, whatever."
