Oedipus

Compositor: Jeremy Haffner / Oedipus

I’m just a photograph, up on your bedroom wall. just a friend, when you need a friend, you can call. i’ll be there if you need me to take the fall.

Another moment passed, you thought you’d never miss. too fast. too fast, fast. too fast you thought when we kissed. but you knew what you want, and you wanted this.

We are, we are old enough to know better, but to young to care.
We are, we are defined by our repression, by confession.

L.i.z.z.y. should we be lonely? living a lie forever.
L.i.z.z.y. not blow this joint, and wake up in bed together.

You spin around the room, in just your underwear. you’re cigarette leaves trails of smoke that hang in the air, as you fall to the floor in streetlight’s glare.

The angel on your lips. the devil in your eyes. if you can keep the secret, i can live with the lies. it’s a small price to pay for the compromise.

We are, we are old enough to know better, but to young to care.
We are, we are defined by our repression, my obsession.

L.i.z.z.y. should we be lonely? living a lie forever.
L.i.z.z.y. not blow this joint, and wake up in bed together.
Oooh, oooh, oooh. oooh, oooh, oooh. oooh, oooh, oooh. aaayaayaay.
L.i.z.z.y. should we be lonely? living a lie.

You’re perfect, and patient. i’m wrecked by desperation. your voice and your body, your wanton vicious little smile. i’m lost in confession, consumed by my obsession.

L.i.z.z.y. should we be lonely? (living a lie forever)
L.i.z.z.y. not blow this joint, and wake up in bed together.
Oooh, oooh, oooh. oooh, oooh, oooh. oooh, oooh, oooh. aaayaayaay.
L.i.z.z.y. should we be lonely, living a lie.
