Third Eye Blind - Why Can't You Be lyrics
rate meAre you frightened by the weight you possess<br />
Is this life just promise-less<br />
The smoggy twilight in LA<br />
I can't think of one right thing to say<br />
Robbie williams is walking in the canyons<br />
Forgets that we were friends<br />
I guess it all depends on your mood<br />
Why can't these meds be any damn good<br />
<br />
And she said<br />
Why can't you be<br />
Like a waterpik shower massager<br />
A sweet reliable machine<br />
To tell the truth<br />
She don't feel less alone<br />
Water massager?s the purest love she's ever known<br />
Why can't you be<br />
When I was 13<br />
Why can't you be<br />
Like an art house foreign movie<br />
Frank and sexy, red balloons and ennui<br />
And allude to me<br />
Why can't you be<br />
A little more of a mystery<br />
Why can't you be<br />
The part of me that's missing<br />
Instead of leaving me for some other<br />
Said we're perfect for each other<br />
<br />
Why can't you be<br />
Like an outsourced government contract<br />
And I'm a fat cat<br />
Gettin' away with anything<br />
Kicking some secret special powers<br />
Illumination round it showers<br />
And your tearing your hair out<br />
While we can have a bed of flowers<br />
Why can't you be<br />
A little more in love than in lust<br />
When it's just the two of us<br />
Sometimes a blowjob's not enough<br />
Why can?t you be<br />
A little less rough<br />
<br />
Why can't you be<br />
The part of me that's missing<br />
Instead of leaving me for some other<br />
Say we're perfect for each other<br />
And I wanna spend my life with her<br />
<br />
Me<br />
My life<br />
Separately<br />
I knew you<br />
Could you forget about me and live alone<br />
<br />
When we're dead, we will have eternity.<br />
And I will, and I will<br />
Be with you and you with me<br />
<br />
So while I'm alive<br />
I will always be<br />
<br />
Why can't you be<br />
A little more deep into me<br />
Like JD Salinger<br />
Why do I challenge her<br />
In all its purpose<br />
Ways that you must prove<br />
Why can't you be<br />
A little more release<br />
Why can't you be<br />
Like a hand rolled cigarette<br />
I?m not choking<br />
This masochistic self-pity of smoking<br />
And this city dew<br />
I keep provoking you to leave me<br />
She said<br />
Why can't you be<br />
Like a candle I can snuff<br />
You?re still a diamond in the rough<br />
And I swear to god I've had enough<br />
How can I call your bluff?<br />
