Letra da Música Pale Beneath The Tan (Squeeze) de The Front Bottoms

Squeeze my arms a little tighter
Let me know I'm still alive
'Cause you're the only one here keeping
Both my eyes open tonight
And I know that we got problems
Who are they to criticize?
If I tell you all my secrets
Would you tell me all your lies?

And when I stop writing her letters
I want her to know that it's because
I have someone that makes me feel
The same exact way that she does
And I will not deny the privilege
To someone else who wants my love
I have stitched a mask of confidence
And I wear it like a glove

And a man who knows what he's talking
Spoke to me today
He said that no ones going to listen
Until you mean every word you say
So if you can't find the feeling
You better learn to lie
And if you know we're gonna fail
Then there's no point to even try
No point to try

I don't get it, for real
This is blowing my mind
We keep saying we're unhappy
And they keep saying that we're fine
I guess pain
Will be the only thing I ever get to bring
But I will send it through the air
Like a loosely gripped baseball bat swing

All I ever wanted was something different
Maybe by another name
We could set ourselves on fire
There is cleansing in the flame
So keep clapping and dancing
Let them know you're still alive
And if you're tired of giving up
At least make them think that you survived

So keep laughing, it's not funny
But at least you don't have to cry
When you wake up in the morning
And you know you're still alive
You're still alive, you know you're still alive
You're still alive, you know you're still alive
Until we break down, until we shut down
Until the weight of our lifeless bodies hit the ground
Until we break down, until we shut down
Until the weight of our lifeless bodies hit the ground
Until we break down, until we shut down
Until the weight of our lifeless bodies hit the ground

And a man who knows what he's talking
Spoke to me today
He said that no ones going to listen
Until you mean every word you say
So if you can't find the feeling
You better learn to lie
And if you know we're gonna fail
Then there's little point to even try
Little point to try
