Faint Love Song Lyrics

Two thousand miles from my home

Where I grew up and I got stoned

Now I'm throwing up in a bathroom

At a basement show in Lincoln

Next we drive while we all die

A little bit a lot of the time

Tie your loose ends

The captain's ship is sinking

Well all I wanna do is fall in your arms

All I wanna hear is a faint love song

As I sober up and saunter out

Lost again in my own self doubt I say

I'm not healthy in any way

All I wanna feel is a caged heartbeat

Beating away tonight's defeat

I'm either dead or desensitized

This baby bird hasn't learned to fly

I tow the line of success

Outlined but not filled in or ever defined

No one to tell me if all this work is for nothing

I'm singing on stage to scant straight faces

Caught up in their own rat races

But you can't erase the pain if you keep running

All I wanna do is fall in your arms

All I wanna hear is a faint love song

As I sober up and saunter out

Lost again in my own self doubt I say

I'm not healthy in any way

All I wanna feel is a caged heartbeat

Beating away tonight's defeat

I'm either dead or desensitized

This baby bird hasn't learned to fly

But if I could, where would I go?

When the only thing I want is next to me

But I know that they don't want me and neither do I

So I soar up in the clouds

Hoping when I come back down that I'd forget myself

Or forgive this wealth of emotion

Cuz anyone would drown in that ocean

All I wanna do is fall in your arms

All I wanna hear is a faint love song

As I sober up and saunter out

Lost again in my own self doubt I say

I'm not healthy in any way

All I wanna feel is a caged heartbeat

Beating away tonight's defeat

I'm either dead or desensitized

This baby bird hasn't learned to fly
