Green Eyes Lyrics
Green eyes, I'd run away with you
Green eyes, 'cause I'm a fool
I try running away
I'm just not fast enough
I'm just not fast enough
My, my own friends
Hate my guts
So what? Who gives a fuck?
Green eyes, I'd run away with you
Green eyes, 'cause I'm a fool
I try staying away
I'm just not man enough
I'm just not man enough
My, my own friends
Hate me
But I don't give a shit
Sky high
Well I fly high, lately
Soar high, soar right through it
Green eyes, I'd run away with you
Green eyes, 'cause I'm a fool
I try running away
I'm just not fast enough
I'm just not man enough
I would try and understand
I would try and understand
That I'm to blame
'Cause I'm so lame
I'm just not man enough
I'm just not man enough
My, my own friends
Hate me
But I don't give a shit
Fly high
Well I fly, lately
Soar high, soar right through it
Green eyes, 'cause I'm a fool
I try running away
I'm just not fast enough
Hate my guts
So what? Who gives a fuck?
Green eyes, 'cause I'm a fool
I try staying away
I'm just not man enough
Hate me
But I don't give a shit
Sky high
Well I fly high, lately
Soar high, soar right through it
Green eyes, 'cause I'm a fool
I try running away
I'm just not man enough
I would try and understand
That I'm to blame
'Cause I'm so lame
I'm just not man enough
Hate me
But I don't give a shit
Fly high
Well I fly, lately
Soar high, soar right through it

Okay, here's what I think it is: "Sky High, well I fly high, lately. So I'll, soar right through it." It's about a guy smoking so much weed that friends think he's lame cuz hes always high. And how does he deal with it? Smokes more weed.
This song is about pot :]
"My own friends hate me but I don't give a shit."
The perfect line for Wavves. Especially after the whole Barcelona thing. Love it.
shit yes!
myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, my own friendsssssssssssss hate my gutssssss
is it about pot, or ditching your friends for your green-eyed bitch?
at lollapalooza nathan said this song was about a girl.
Yeah, Mary Jane!
Yeah, Mary Jane!
Nathan is dating the lead singer of Best Coast, Bethany Cosentino, who happens to have green eyes....coincidence?
Amazing, I love it.
could it possible be "I try staying away" instead of awake? since he says he's not man enough...
Both good theories, I guess its which one relates more back to yourself when listening. To me though its about loosing your mates to girl.. Great Tune
agreed
agreed
i think its about a girl, i hope so anyway. doesn't seem like he really cares to run away from weed and it means more to me a girl is more relatable.
