The Neighbourhood - R.I.P. 2 My Youth lyrics

rate me

(Intro)

RIP to my youth

(Verse)

And you could call this the funeral

I'm just tellin' the truth

And you can play this at my funeral

Wrap me up in Chanel inside my coffin

Might go to Hell and there ain't no stoppin'

Might be a sinner and I might be a saint

I'd like to be proud, but somehow I'm ashamed

Sweet lil baby in a world full of pain

I got to be honest, I don't know if I could take it

Everybody's talkin', but what's anybody sayin'?

Mama said if I really want, then I can change it, yeah

RIP to my youth

If you really listen, then this is to you

Mama, there is only so much I can do

Tough for you to witness, but it was for me too

(Chorus)

I'm usin' white lighters to see what's in front of me

RIP to my youth

(Verse 2)

And you could call this the funeral

I'm just tellin' the truth, yeah

You can play this at my funeral

Tell my sister don't cry and don't be sad

I'm in paradise with Dad

Close my eyes and then cross my arms

Put me in the dirt, let me dream with the stars

Throw me in a box with the oxygen off

You gave me the key and you locked every lock

When I can't breathe, I won't ask you to stop

When I can't breathe, don't call for a cop

I was naive and hopeful and lost

Now I'm aware and drivin' my thoughts

(Bridge)

What do I do? What do I do?

I don't believe it if I don't keep proof

I don't believe it if I don't know you

I don't believe it if it's on the news or on the Internet

I need a cigarette

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)

And you could call this the funeral

I'm just tellin' the truth

And you can play this at my funeral

Tell my sister don't cry and don't be sad

I'm in Paradise with Dad

Close my eyes and then cross my arms

Put me in the dirt, let me be with the stars
