The Twistinside - Everclear

We have been sleeping with the lights on 
Just about every night 
Because we are afraid what the dark might bring 
I know I know it's just a childish fear 
That grows and grows wild in the middle of me 
I'm gonna get a new tattoo 
Black and stretching around my arm 
Like a life that is visable and real 
I know I know it's stupid and immature 
I just want to give shape to the face 
That twists inside 
Both you and me 
Breathing fire - doesn't look good on a resume 
Neither does anything else we do 
We got to get ready for the real world 
Yeah yeah we got to grow up 
You know I like to die for awhile 
Everyday in the afternoon 
I like to let the arms of a bar 
Wrap around me tight 
I'm just going to sprawl in the front booth 
Big drink above my head 
Cross eyes and smiling as 
I watch the world 
Go twisting by 
I don't want to die with you, 
Or live in the same dark room 
I don't want to see your bloodshot eyes 
No more, no more 
I just want to take this girl- 
All curls and big brown eyes 
Man I can't take the pain 
Of wanting her, needing her 
I know the secret of your soul 
And I just don't want to know- 
Yeah, man we got to grow up
