Remembering Analogue

Girl Next Door Remembering Analogue Lyrics
1.Remembering Analogue


2.Gorgeous

(k. green)

I hate to break it to you, we had nothing in common
We were so far apart
You liked top 40 radio and i had my joni mitchell
We were helpless from the start
You wanted something more than i could ever give
You wanted to feel my kiss from the heart
But i only loved you because you're gorgeous

Long, long sleepless nights so unsatisfied
Never wanted a car or your money or a diamond ring
I never asked for anything from you
But i'd take honesty over jealousy any day
Something that you could never give to me
Anyway, i only loved you because you're gorgeous
I only cared because you're gorgeous

Last night you came to me in a dream
I thought my therapy had rid you from my memory
I was wrong
Everyone says, 'i love you'
Everyone says, 'i need you'
Everyone says, 'oh, darling marry me' so casually it seems
But i only loved you because you're gorgeous
Said, i only stayed because you're gorgeous

Everyone says, 'i love you'
Everyone says, 'i love you'
Everyone says, 'i love you' so casually it seems
But i only loved you because you're gorgeous
Said, i only smiled because you're gorgeous
Mmm...you're gorgeous

3.Superhero


4.Mosquitos

(k. green, b. lincoln)

There's more than one girl in here
To deal with all the pleasures
And all the pain and all the guilt
They bring
There's a knot in the string
That links my childhood
With my present
It blocks me
Yet, the passion remains the same
They just keep changing names on me

There are things i refuse to deal with
Scary things that come out in awkward ways
Fake it, do i fake it?
The dreamer girl fakes it better than i do it for real
Yet, the passion remains the same
They just keep changing names on me
On me
There must be something on me!

Little did i know i was
Standing on a rock that has now turned to sand
Turned to sand

And it's about rejection and it's about shame and
It's about walking away with what little dignity you can save
And it's about approval and it's about making it
To fill this jealous empty hole inside
Yet, the passion remains the same
They just keep changing names on me

On me
There must be something on me!
Little did i know i was
Standing on a rock that has now turned to sand
Turned to sand

5.Exile

(k. green)

Counting ships crossing lake blue
You don't seem to notice the light house has blown out
In my need, i'm crying for you
In my bleed, i'm dying for you to sail on
Crossing bridges but i just keep crossing over you
In a limousine in my mind
All that i am is everything you are
I'm your mirror, you're my scar

And i was innocent in your eyes 'til you went blind
I was a real saint
How much do you need someone to blame for your pain?

Putting the pieces together contradicting every word
Believing everyone is against you
'we'll all get you!'
What's that i see crossing lake blue
A battleship surrendering to the darkness inside of you

I was innocent in your eyes 'til you went blind
I was a real saint
How much do you need someone to blame for your pain

How much do you need someone to blame for your pain, boy?
I already said that i was wrong
In exile i'm already gone - if that's what you want
(if that's what you want then i'll give it to you)

I was innocent in your eyes 'til you went blind
I was a real saint
How much do you need someone to blame for your pain?

I was...counting ships crossing lake blue

6.Down

(k. green)

Breath down my neck but don't take a bite
My blood's not sweet enough for you
Reel me in hook line and sinker
Throw me back i'm not big enough for you

You should know by now
Giving up is the easy way
Giving up is the easy way out
You should know by now
Giving up is the easy way
Giving up is the easy way out

Where's the challenge in running
Where's the strength in blowing it all to the wind
For all that we've been through
For all the sweat and tears
Just try and send me packing, dear

Nothing's gonna take us down
Nothing's gonna break us down
Like a bullet in your barrel
Like an angry superhero
Nothing's gonna take us down

You should know by now
Giving up is the easy way
Giving up is the easy way out
You should know by now
Giving up is the easy way
Giving up is the easy way out

Nothing's gonna take us down
Nothing's gonna break us down
Like a bullet in your barrel
Like an angry superhero
Nothing's gonna take us down

7.Human

(k. green, b. lincoln)

There are lessons i have learned about my beauty
Did god strike me down?
Some only want me for their own devise
But are you different,
Did god strike you too?

Nobody's perfect
No, no, no nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect except we are
We are perfect for each other

Oh, i can't help it, my feelings are strong
Some will stay and some will go on
I have lived without you for so long
Now, here we are
Let god strike us down

Hey you
Won't you come and play with me tonight
I won't run away
Share your deepest darkest secrets
I can see it in your eyes you're scared
After all you're only human
After all you're only human
After all you're only...(scared) human

Nobody's perfect
No, no, no nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect except we are
We are perfect for each other
...perfect

8.Badlands

(k. green)

Tears ripping through the badlands
Tearing a hole in my heart
I want to wrap myself in your shadow
But i trip and fall on my head

Now i'm standing upside down
Now i'm staring at the sky

Safe and sound in your embrace
Your day old shoulder suffocates me
With that familiar sweet smell of your body
Possesses me like a ghost

Now i'm standing upside down
Now i'm staring at the sky

Life makes you tumble and frown
God made the feeling; so down
Life makes you tumble and cry wondering why

Now i'm standing on my head
Now i wish i could forget you

Life makes you tumble and frown
God made the feeling; so down
Life makes you tumble and cry wondering why
Tumble and frown
Tumble and frown
Tumble and...

Like a ghost with tears ripping through the badlands

9.Vanity

(k. green)

Oh, it's raining, it's pouring the old man is snoring
I'm inspired by the rain
It's raining, it's pouring the mirror man is snoring
I'm inspired by the rain again and again

I'm funny
Can't you see my knees are all diseased
So, i cover them
How i wish that i could look a lot like her
Can't you see that i can barely breath in this bubble of
Dreams that i could look a lot like her

Oh, it's raining its pouring the lucky grave is snoring
I'm inspired by the rain
It's raining, its pouring the millionaire is snoring
I'm inspired by the rain again and again

I'm ugly
Can't you see my hands are all diseased
So, i cover them
How i wish that i could be as rich as her
Can't you see i'm losing sleep over sobriety
Oh, how i wish that i could throw up my vanity

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me, is this fair at all?!

Can't you see, i'm ugly
My knees are all diseased so, i cover them
How i wish that i could look a lot like you
Can't you see i'm losing sleep over sobriety
How i wish i could throw up my vanity
How i wish i could throw up my vanity
How i wish i could throw up my vanity

10.Strange Things

(k. green)

When i died you came to me
Leather straps bound my arms
I couldn't reach you
When i died all was wild
Poppies grew in my head
Everyone was red like the dead

Stranger things have happened
Stranger things have happened like this
Stranger things have happened...like this

When i died something pried my eyes wide open
I saw stars all around whispering my name
When i died my past flashed before me
My future was a stage i couldn't leave yet

Stranger things have happened
Stranger things have happened like this
What am i doing here?
You adore me
Stranger things have happened
Stranger things have happened like this
What am i doing here?
You restore me

If not for you, i wouldn't be here
If not for you, i would leave here
If not for you, the circus would have skipped this town
If not for you, i would have drowned
If not for you, if not for you
If not for you, i would have died...near here

Stranger things have happened
Stranger things have happened like this
Stranger things have happened...like this
Stranger things have happened
Stranger things are happened now
What am i doing here?
Thank you for the strange things
