The Swiss Army Romance Lyrics
Dashboard Confessional
Sleep with all the lights on.
Youre not so happy.
Youre not secure.
Youre dying to look cute in your blue jeans,
But youre plastic just like everyone.
Youre just like everyone.
And that face you paint is pressed
Impressing most of us as permanent
And Id like to see you undone.
College night will draw the crowds.
Dorms unload & your heading out.
Here is your moment to shine.
Making up a history.
Its nothing from the life you lead
But man, will they buy all your lines.
Sleep with all the sheets off
Bearing your mattress
Bearing your soul.
And youre dying to look smooth with your tattoos
But youre searching just like everyone
Could be anyone.
And the friends that you have are the best
Impressing most of us as permanent
And Id like to see you undone.
Youths the most unfaithful mistress.
Still we forge ahead to miss her.
Rushing our moment to shine.
Making up a history,
Its nothing from the life you lead
But man will they buy all your lines.
Were not twenty-one,
But the sooner we are,
The sooner the fun will begin,
So get out your fake eyelashes,
And fake i.ds,
& real disasters ensue,
Its cool to take these chances.
Its cool to fake romances
& grow up fast.
