Third Eye Blind Semi-Charmed Life (1997) Lyrics

I'm packed and I'm holding
I'm smiling, she's living
She's golden, she lives for me
She says she lives for me ovation, her own motivation
She goes 'round and she goes down on me
And I'll make you smile
like a drug for you
Do ever what you want to do
coming over you
Keep on smiling, what we go through
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
Come on like a freak show takes the stage
We give them the games we play
She said

I want something else
to get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
baby, baby
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say
Goodbye...

Doo (x24)

The sky was gold, it was rose
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there
some place back there
Smiling in the pictures you would take
Doing crystal myth
will lift you up until you break
It won't stop, I won't come down
I keep stock
With a tick tock rhythm
A b__p for the drop
And then I b__ped up
I took the hit that I was given
Then I b__ped again
Then I b__ped again, he said
How do I get back there to
the place where I fell asleep inside you
How do I get myself back to
the place where you said

I want something else
to get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
baby, baby
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say
Goodbye...

I believe in the sand beneath my toes
the beach gives a feeling
an earthy feeling
I believe in the faith that grows
and the four right chords could make me cry
When I'm with you I feel like I could die
and that would be all right
All right

And when the plane came in
she said she was crashing
the velvet it rips
In the city we tripped
on the urge to feel alive
but now I'm struggling to survive
Those days you were wearing
that velvet dress
you're the priestess, I must confess
Those little red panties
they pass the test
Slides up around the belly
face down on the matress

One, and you hold me
and we're broken
Still it's all that I want to do
Just a little now
I feel myself with a head
made of the ground
I'm scared I'm not coming down
No no
And I won't run for my life
She's got her jaws all locked down in a smile
but nothing is all right
All right

I want something else
to get me through this
life...baby, baby
I want something else
Not listening when you say
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye...
Doo (x24)

The sky was gold, it was rose
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there
some place back there
In the place we used to sta-a-a-a-rt

Doo...
