Tales of Helsinki and Skateboarding

It smells a little like Christmas Cold and kind of like peaches-don't make fun of that And it's not even September And this time I swear if you jump off that I'm not going to the hospital My blood stained shirt from the show Still smells of clove cigarettes How can you still look so good? Never Summer. There's something wrong with us-- really. Yeah, cause you'll want that there in fifteen years. You are such an- You got the idea four cliche's ago Hi, hello. Yes. Thank you. Come on in. Our subliminal messages will begin in 2.5 seconds. You like the way you make me feel like a child. And You're not allowed to talk anymore. A bit chilly outside--okay, blizzard. Don't go out in that. Doubt the car will make it back. Taste of deep red wine. Reminds me of the word Cabaret. Funny shows, it's like they won't let you go Is everything broken? Lock my bedroom door. We're trying to have a conversation...okay, sure. God I love the life you've made Out there on a ramp With everyone watching, my clothes fit better than ever Like the hat, give him that back One in the same Nothing in common, no more useless input Is that real? Really, is it? We're going out tonight. I want you to go. Especially when I see you 3 times a month. How many ideas can you steal? Make it part of your own appeal. I don't know how mnay more times I can laugh at that one So I'll set on the snow Think of where we are And what you all did to my car... This was the best time wer ever had Then I'll go inside Try to light our fireplace. Failure. Be careful. You can stay with me. We'll stay inside. It's your bedroom, but you still knock on the door before you come in So glad I live here If only everything was this easy for everyone as it is for them This is the part I always wanted to play Is this what you always want me for? I love your face and hands And the way you just don't care So naive. That turns you on, I know enough to know that. Have I really lost that much weight? Things are so great it makes me upset. Be my serious side and I'll be your soul Are they still out there? Better go check to make sure they're alive. You love me. And I love this.
