"Hard To Explain" lyrics
"Hard To Explain"
Was an honest man
Asked me for the phone, tried to take control
Oh, I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
We shared some ideas
All obsessed with fame, says we're all the same
Oh, I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
Raised in Carolina
I'm not like that
Trying to remind her
When we go back
I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
I say the right thing but act the wrong way
I like it right here, but I cannot stay
I'm watching TV, forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young and they are too old
The joke is on you, this place is a zoo
You're right, it's true
He said he can't decide
I shake my head to say, "Everything's just great."
Oh, I just can't remember
I just can't remember
Raised in Carolina
She says, "I'm not like that."
Trying to remind her
When we go back
I say the right thing but act the wrong way
I like it right here, but I cannot stay
I'm watching TV, forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young and they are too old
Oh man, can't you see, I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice so I can be mean
I missed the last bus, we'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain

Weezer - "My Name Is Jonas" My name is Jonas, I'm carryin' the wheel
Thanks for all you've shown us, but this is how we feel
Come sit next to me, pour yourself some tea
Just like Grandma made when we couldn't find sleep
Things...
The Libertines - "Can't Stand Me Now" An ending fitting for the start
You twist and tore our love apart
Your light fingers threw the dark
That shattered the lamp and into darkness cast us
No, you've got it the wrong way round
You shut...
Editors - "Munich" I'm so glad I've found this
I'm so glad I did
I'm so glad I've found this
I'm so glad I did
People are fragile things, you should know by now
Be careful what you put them through
People are fragile...
Foster The People - "Helena Beat" Sometimes life it takes you by the hair
Pulls you down
Before you know it, it's gone and you're dead again
I've been in places and I won't pretend
Yeah I'd make it out just to fall on my head
Wake...
Queens Of The Stone Age - "I Sat By The Ocean" I sat by the ocean
And drank a potion, baby, to erase you
Face down in the boulevard
Yet, I couldn't face you
There ain't no use in crying
It doesn't change anything
So, baby, what good does it do?...
