The Front Bottoms - Tattooed Tears lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

You should know that you don't kick, if you don't have to

All that's fair in luv and war, I know, don't get me wrong!

But if you listen to your heart, it may mislead you

Lord, I should know, I have felt lost for so long

(Chorus)

You had me go from what I though was smart and carefully

To seriously slippin' outta control

(Verse 2)

But I have to learn that this luv will neva be convenient

I’m gonna have to learn that this luv will neva be convenient

It’s not like a movie when we kiss; there is no music when we kiss

And I’m gonna have to learn that this luv will neva be convenient

Convenient, oh convenient

(Verse 3)

I hear her whisper 'all I want is to want nothin'

The room is dark and I’m pretty sure she thinks I’m asleep

She says 'it just don't make no sense, why can't it work out in my head?'

'Why I can't be happy when there's definitely reasons I should be?'

(Chorus)

She says that I, for one, will not be held responsible

For someone else, I gotta go!

(Interlude)

I’m gonna have to learn that this luv will neva be convenient

And I’m gonna have to learn that this love will neva be convenient

Convenient, oh convenient

(Verse 4)

Let’s talk about how it felt on my shoulders as it came pourin' out my ears

Let’s talk about the face of our love and how it might look

With the addition of tattooed tears

Let’s talk about the torn up skin on my fingers right where it meets my fingernails

Let’s talk about what you call smart and careful

Is seriously slippin' out of control

(Interlude)

I’m gonna have to learn that this love will neva be convenient

I’m gonna have to learn that this love will neva be convenient

It’s not like a movie when we kiss, there'll neva be no music when we kiss

And I’m gonna have to learn that this love will neva be convenient

Convenient, oh convenient
