lyrics

We could be so good together but you say that your mind’s made up about me
It seems that I’ve been thinking about you forever
I’ve tried to bite my tongue but I’ve been busy shouting
Cause my heart’s only so strong and a little gets through like the Hoover Dam’s drink
I haven’t been thinking straight for so long
All I know is you’re out of this world like lunar landings
You told me I’d bounce back like a jumper on a bungie
But I’m still torn up like a new pair of store-bought grunge jeans
The way that I’m dropping verses, I guess you could call me clumsy
But articulate in saying: “Could we figure out if you’re my one, please?”
We could make a beautiful day out of the usual rain
A funeral for all our juvenile ways
But I’ll keep a musical pace for my immutable faith
That one day soon you’ll realize that I’m a suitable mate

{Anthony & DJ Bakhuis}
When the lights go down and your time runs out
I’ll be here waiting; Patiently wasting away
When the lights go down and your time runs out
I’ll be your old and grey; I’ll wait for you beyond infinity

Shattered pieces of a promise I made
Scattered freely, sprinkled over the page
Wish I’d grow over the pain and just get over the rage
I’ve been listening but I don’t think I’ve gotta be sober to change
I’m getting over the way you used to look at me
Hooking me in line and sinker
I’m a thinker but of late I’ve been rather irrational
Let me lather this confessional with truths on the beat
The news on the street is that the dudes that you meet
Have less soul to them than the shoes on your feet
I think you’re too fucking sweet like what Pooh loves to eat
Still hoping that eventually you’ll finally move to retreat
I can’t sleep without fleeting fucking images of you in my head
When all I want in life is you to say you love me instead
Well while you’re breaking my heart, I’ll still be breaking this bread
With every hope you’ll know this song is about you by the end

{Anthony & DJ Bakhuis}
When the lights go down and your time runs out
I’ll be here waiting; Patiently wasting away
When the lights go down and your time runs out
I’ll be your old and grey; I’ll wait for you beyond infinity

I won’t be dissuaded by odds and ends
The consequence lives on in my common sense
I can smell your doubt, it’s a common scent
But don’t you think that you could work it with an honest gent
You’re a flawless gem and I’ll admit that
Clearer than a cup of Crystal Pepsi that I sipped back
I’m not trying to bring you down like I’m asking for a hit back
I’m just thinking crooked like my brainwaves were zig-zags
If you are a big bag, I can be the contents
Cause you take me places I can’t fathom when the song ends
You say you’re tired of the cheating, well that’s why I’m not game
You’ve been hurting freely while I’m numbing in the stockade
Help this fucking stop, babe

{Anthony & DJ Bakhuis}
When the lights go down and your time runs out
I’ll be here waiting; Patiently wasting away
When the lights go down and your time runs out
I’ll be your old and grey; I’ll wait for you beyond infinity
