Letra de R.I.P. 2 My Youth de The Neighbourhood

intro

RIP to my youth
And you could call this the funeral
I′m just telling the truth
And you can play this at my funeral

verse

Wrap me up in Chanel inside my coffin
Might go to Hell and there ain't no stopping
Might be a sinner and I might be a saint
I′d like to be proud, but somehow I'm ashamed
Sweet little baby in a world full of pain
I gotta be honest, I don't know if I could take it
Everybody′s talking, but what′s anybody saying?
Mama said if I really want to, then I can change it, yeah
RIP to my youth
If you really listen, then this is to you
Mama, there is only so much I can do
Tough for you to witness, but it was for me too

pre-chorus

I'm using white lighters to see what′s in front of me

chorus

RIP to my youth
And you can call this the funeral
I'm just telling the truth, yeah
You could play this at my funeral
Tell my sister, "Don′t cry and don't be sad
I′m in Paradise with dad"
Close my eyes and then cross my arms
Put me in the dirt, let me dream with the stars

verse

Throw me in a box with the oxygen off
You gave me the key and you locked every lock
When I can't breathe, I won't ask you to stop
When I can′t breathe, don′t call for a cop
I was naive and hopeful and lost
Now I'm aware and driving my thoughts, oh

bridge

What do I do? What do I do?
I don′t believe it if I don't keep proof
I don′t believe it if I don't know you
I don′t believe it if it's on the news or on the internet
I need a cigarette

pre-chorus

I'm using white lighters to see what′s in front of me
I′m using white lighters to see

chorus

RIP to my youth
And you can call this the funeral
I'm just telling the truth
And you could play this at my funeral
Tell my sister, "Don′t cry and don't be sad
I′m in Paradise with dad"
Close my eyes and then cross my arms
Put me in the dirt, let me be with the stars

outro

(I'm using white lighters to see what′s in front of me)
(I'm using white lighters to see what's in front of me)
