Album Cover On The Hood Of An Old Car

On The Hood Of An Old Car

Matt Mays

3

It all began without warning

On a strange winter's morning

The sky turned red

The vibrations went dead

With these terrible songs on a rainy day

The pressure just started to fall

Your scene doesn't do anything for me

It doesn't do anything at all

Is the music gone?

Is it gone for good

It's only 6 metal strings on a piece of wood

And all these things goin' on in my head

Make it kinda hard to deal

Like seaweed swayin' in the ocean blue

For me, it's got to be real

I don't care anymore

People tell me I should

They're out lookin' for hits

I'd rather lay on the hood of an old car with my girlfriend

And my real friends

Until the end

I'll take you on a trip

Inside my soul

There you'll see

The part that somebody soul

Now can you see this picture that I painted for you

It's of you that you're not used to

But you refuse to don't you?

You're thinkin' too hard

You can't think too hard

I don't care anymore

People tell me I should

They're out lookin' for hits

I'd rather lay on the hood of an old car with my girlfriend

And my real friends

Until the end

It all began without warning

On a strange winter's morning

The sky turned red

The vibrations went dead

With these terrible songs on a rainy day

The pressure just started to fall

Your scene doesn't do anything for me

It doesn't do anything at all

I don't care anymore

People tell me I should

They're out lookin' for hits

I'd rather lay on the hood of an old car with my girlfriend

And my real friends

Until the end
