The Ghosts of Beverly Drive |
| If only you had known me before the accident |
| For with that grand collision, came a grave consequence |
| Receptors overloaded; |
| they burst and disconnect |
| Til there was little feeling, please work with what is left |
| Oh, I need not be flattered, that you’ve never been here before |
| So there’s no need to mention, that you’ve no firsts anymore |
| But if you let me be your skyline, I’ll let you be the wave |
| That reduces me to rubble, but looked safe from far away |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why I return to the scenes of these crimes |
| Where the hedgerows slowly wind, through the ghosts of Beverly Drive |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know what I expect to find |
| Where all the news is secondhand, and everything just goes on as planned |
| You wanna teach but not be taught |
| And I wanna sell but not be bought |
| So let us not be lonesome |
| So let us not be lonesome |
| Lost in between our needs and wants |
| Our needs and wants |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I return to the scenes of these crimes |
| Where the hedgerows slowly wind, through the ghosts of Beverly Drive |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know what I expect to find |
| Where all the news is secondhand, and everything just goes on as planned |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why |
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why |
