"Of all the Gin Joints in all the world"
by Sixtyoneways on July 20, 2009Yeah, I was just listening to Fall Out Boy's latest album, Folie a Deux (Madness for Two). And I came across this song again, it just seemed catchier and catchier.
"You only hold me up like this
'Cause you don't know who I really am
Sometimes I just want to know
What it's like to be you
We're making out inside crashed cars
We're sleeping through all our memories
I used to waste my time
Dreaming of being alive
(Now I only waste my time dreaming of you)
Turn off the lights
And turn off the shyness
'Cause all of our moves
Make up for the silence
And oh, the way
Your makeup stains my pillowcase
Like I'll never be the same
You only hold me up like this
'Cause you don't know who I really am
I used to waste my time on
Waste my time on
Waste my time dreaming of being alive
(Now I only waste it dreaming of you)
Turn off the lights
And turn off the shyness
'Cause all of our moves
Make up for the silence
And oh, the way
Your makeup stains my pillowcase
Like I'll never be the same
I've got headaches and bad luck
But they couldn't touch you, no
I've got headaches and bad luck
But they couldn't touch you, no
I'm not trying
You only hold me up like this
Turn off the lights
And turn off the shyness
'Cause all of our moves
Make up for the silence
And oh, the way
Your makeup stains
Like I'll never be the same"
Good song, lyrics are really nice even though sometimes I can't really understand Pete...
The Meaning: I think, It about a guy in a new relationship with a girl, and how great she is to him, and how maybe she's trying in this relationship, and he isn't, and he doesn't open up to her. But he still cares about her... that's what I think, at least.
"Off all the gin goints in all the world" Odd title, swear I've heard this somewhere before. Anyway My rating (3/5)
