Lyrics If Bukowski Could See Me Now - Forever Came Calling

If Bukowski Could See Me Now

Let’s get reckless like the ocean ‘cause I’m careless like the sea
I watched you walk inside this crowded room, trying to drink the void in you
We’re all searching for something intangible, breaking moons apart to let the
ocean know
You taught me a lot about confidence, a common place, and settling
I taught you all about love instead, petty theft, and remembering
Sitting tongue out and spinning, traded true love for a ring
Walk the shores of Mexico and finally calmed her seas
You taught me a lot about confidence, a common place, and settling
I taught you all about love instead, petty theft, and remembering
So crack my heart, and let you finish those lines
‘cause the actors that we play are taking on our lives
Of all the things she swore she ever meant, still in my head it’s «the
difference.»
I guess you were just smarter than the gate to drug use and awkward sex
My best friends will be the death of me, but I gotta say it’s the only way to be
Did your best to try and find change, nickel and dimed but pennies ain’t got
nothing to say
She crashes those waves, she is dead weight
Did you ever find change?
