NOFX - Subsitute lyrics
[NOFX - Subsitute lyrics]
Was a fair and faithful fighter
She smoldered with her will to save the world
I did my best to help her, yeah
I stood shoulder to shoulder
On the front lines with my visionary girl
I wish that she had cared for me
But in the end her ideologies
Occupied the fortress of her heart
I wrote her fifteen songs
But still we had to part
And if music was the food of love
Then I'd be a fat romantic slob well, music
It's my substitute for love
The last girl that I loved
She was a low and lusty liar
She set my heart on fire but made me choke
Her beauty was a sight to see but
She didn't save it all for me
I found other fires by following the smoke
I wish that she had either cared
For me or let be me
But she chased me from my
Mind and from my home
I wrote her sixteen songs but ended up alone
And if love is really all that we need
Then even all my whining is
Never gonna save me
Music, it's my substitute for love
Well, I've had many different
Dimes inside my head
But only one or two inside my bed
These days I cuddle up to my guitar instead
But oh, what I would give
Not to stumble but to really fall in love
And I could substitute my singing for
The sound of someone tied up next to me
