I caught the fever when she went down slow California sun had turned to indigo Lip biting tension on the patio Her carnivore fingers in my bag of blow Vacation goggles Montecito sky She wakes up and dazzles even when she's fried She gave herself so free I barely had to try A longing that neither of us could satisfy That kiss goodbye... I left feeling free Jungle life is savage when you're always stoned I'd warm myself to her voice on the telephone She made her way under my skin I should've known Girls like her ain't ok just being alone But fear is like a self fulfilling prophecy I warned her she could always count on me to leave That line about you can't have what you want "it's free" And how I need to sail out on the sickening sea I kissed her strong... felt it in my knees... She said "well boy what if you're wrong? you could stay right here with me" I said I am my father's son SongtexteIt's a fate I can't outrun While you lie in wait, I'll medicate then devour you just for fun I am my father's son Another couple visits and my grip had slipped I get weak little knees when the script gets flipped Lonely is an ocean I never learned to swim Club feet won't evolve, I could use some fins Sentimental fool with a stitched up heart I tried to impress her with my stagnant art My common ugly tunings and this poison pen Maybe I could one day learn to just say when But she said "love is about what you're down to do, It's not a stack of verses or a new tattoo. You'll never wake up feeling like you've just been used And it's got no time for self abuse, Let's kiss goodbye and you can go on feeling free Boy what you call love is not for me" She said "you are your father's son You'll devour what you can't outrun So don't get me wrong, I love your songs and the time we had was fun But you are your father's son" I am my father's son Devouring all I can't outrun Like a fool I ran with my little plans always out for number one I am my father's son Aus Songtexte Mania
