Lyrics

Something Boring

[Verse 1]

And I'll pawn my dignity

And trade it in for a look outside

At the birds and the bees in my love

And she'll erase her memory

Replace it with an ocean blues

An elegant ruse

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]

And I'll take off my skin

And wrap it around you

A tale of one to two

We'll distort our memories

And trade them in for some time outside

Where we're alive, we're alive, we're alive

[Bridge]

And if all is left are the rhymes in my head

I'll take you there someday

And swim with me in an ocean of coffee

As I shake all through the night

[Refrain]

I need you to be something more

I need you to be something more

I need you to be something more

I need you to be something more

I need you to be something boring

I need you to be something boring

I need you to be something boring

I need you to be something boring

I need you to be something real

I need you to be something real

I need you to be something real

I need you to be something real
