Lyrics

Dead End

Woke up thinking 'bout you
Tried calling but I couldn't get through
Guess we got our own shit to do
But these days I don't recognize you
Couldn't ever be the same
To be loved is to be changed
I don't need other people around
Nobody's gonna get me down

And the sound of your name
Brings down the perennial rain
I can feel it coming down
And I can't stop thinking about

Hours we'd spend
Parked at the dead end
You're burned in my heart, old friend
Tell me, can't you even look me in my eyes? (My eyes)
Tell me, can't you even look me in my eyes?

I don't need you anyhow
Just want room on the basement couch
Nowadays, I don't need to come down
Nobody's gonna stop me now
And I think I should be blunt
You can do whatever you want
I hope you get the life you want
I really hope you get the life you want

And the sound of your name
Brings down the perennial rain
I can feel it coming down
And I can't stop thinking about

Hours we'd spend
Parked at the dead end
You're burned in my heart, old friend
Tell me, can't you even look me in my eyes? (My eyes)
Tell me, can't you even look me in my eyes?

So my thoughts speak to oblivion
You know you make me feel so used
Do you ever wonder where I've been?
'Cause I still wonder about you
Yeah, and I do
Yeah, and I do, ooh

Na, na, na-na, na, na, na, na-na, na
Na, na, na-na, na, na, na, na-na, na
Na, na, na-na, na, na, na, na-na, na
Na, na, na-na, na, na, na, na-na, na
