Phoenix - J Boy lyrics

Something in the middle of the side of the store Got your attention you would ask for more I was excited to be part of your world To belong, to be lost, to be mostly the two of us Something I was stealing for no reason at all They hang me higher than a disco ball But you talked them into letting me go It’s no Pica**o, Michelangelo.(j boy) Something ’bout the j**els you wear Shiny, shiny bangles on your wrists And at the Masquerade ball You feel trapped in a vault, in an empty aquarium If suddenly you’re out of the woods Then inside of an alley you’re out of words Well I thought it was radium at first. Just because of you These things I have to go through Is it so bad? Is it so true? Is it still you? Just because of you These things I have to go through It’s more than that, we’re chained And there’s no else to blame For us two. Some things they don’t matter till they matter to you They stole that money from a homeless girl The truth is we’re all to blame There are lies and moral consequences We started at the end of the line To end up giving up to a couple, who cares? When you talked me into letting you go No more coral on the atoll. Something ’bout how hard you learned Kamikaze in a hopeless world Do you remember the last time you laughed And I laughed and you left and I left? Send me on the lonely other side of the world With a couple of guys and no alphabet Put two and two together We’ll make it last forever. Just because of you These things I have to go through Is it so bad? Is it so true? Is it still you? Just because of you These things I have to go through It’s more than that, we’re chained And there’s no else to blame For us two. Just because of you These things I have to go through Is it so bad? Is it so true? Is it still you? Just because of you These things I have to go through It’s more than that, we’re chained And there’s no else to blame For us twooo.
