Semi-Charmed Life Lyrics

I'm packed and I'm holdin'

I'm smilin', she's livin', she's golden

She lives for me, says she lives for me

Ovation, her own motivation

She comes round and she goes down on me

And I make her smile, like a drug for you

Do ever what you wanna do, comin' over you

Keep on smilin' 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 to play, she said

I want somethin' else

To get me through this

Semi-charmed kinda life

Baby, baby

I want somethin' else

I'm not listenin' when you say

Goodbye

The sky was gold, it was rose

I was takin' sips of it through my nose

And I wish I could get back there, someplace back there

Smilin' in the pictures you would take

Doin' crystal meth, will lift you up until you break

It won't stop, I won't come down

I keep stock with the tick-tock rhythm

I bump for the drop, and then I bumped up

I took the hit that I was given, then I bumped again

Then I bumped again, I 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 somethin' else

To get me through this

Semi-charmed kinda life

Baby, baby

I want somethin' else

I'm not listenin' 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 can make me cry

When I'm with you I feel like I could die

And that would be alright, alright

And when the plane came in, she said she was crashin'

The velvet it rips in the city

We tripped on the urge to feel alive

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 mattress

One

And you hold me, and we're broken

Still it's all that I wanna do, just a little now

Feel myself, heavy on the ground

I'm scared, I'm not comin' down

No, no

And I won't run for my life

She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile

But nothin' is alright, alright

And I want somethin' else

To get me through this life

Baby, I want somethin' else

Not listenin' when you say

Goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

The sky was gold, it was rose

I was takin' sips of it through my nose

And I wish I could get back there, someplace back there

In the place we used to start

I want somethin' else
