I tried to write this in the punkest way I can
To help me to breakdown this broadcast without the cliche lines we cannot stand
'Cause i hear you must be sick of pretty words in empty tracks
Promise you'll try my best
I won't talk about your smile, won't talk about your freckles, won't talk about how long I tried to tell you this
I won't talk about your eyes, talk about your laughter, talk about how you make my heart beat faster
It's hard to speak your heart out the way that gringo does
So i guess i'm stuck to being a romantic buzz
Like Ani on his way to a galactic training, for years to be away from his childhood lady
Guess i'm faded to cliche, so let me make my final stand like Scarface and his little friend
I'm not trying to be rude, but flying Solo on a Millenium Falcon without a port is just cruel
I'm not trying to be cute, but if loose lips can sink ships, then I just wanna sink with you.
