Emo

From Dude Ranch1997

Written by Mark Hoppus, Scott Raynor

Lyrics

Emo

One more time you will laugh about it And he'll never try to give you more And I don't care, he is such a dick Treats you like you are a stupid whore

And it seems like things will never change You go on, every cloud is in your way And I know you feel empty all the time You'll never listen to anything that I say

She's better off sleeping on the floor 'Cause she fell right off when all Is said, you know It's okay to just want more

Why leave when you claim it is love? But why stay when you're not the only one? She's proved she's strong Be brave, be strong

She's better off sleeping on the floor 'Cause she fell right off when all Is said, you know It's okay to just want more

She's better off sleeping on the floor She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed) She's better off sleeping on the floor She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed) She's better off sleeping on the floor She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed) She's better off sleeping on the floor She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed)
