"Chip Off The Block" lyrics

"Chip Off The Block"

I want to chip off the old block
I want a girl who I can talk to
Stumbling through your neighborhood
Defacing walls just like I should

Oh, I wanted to be you
Dirty like the skies
You live in space your life's a waste - like mine
So lets just

Stop, before we die
I know you don't care at all
But what if right before the end we quit now
Why don't we just stop - before we die

We saw our names in the lights
Chasing dragons through Echo Park
Raising Hell on the quiet afternoon
Sandbox heroes we lonely fools

Oh, I wanted to be you
Take that and put it on lips like mine
Cause here in space we're wasting all our time
So lets just

Stop before we die
I know you don't care at all
But what if right before the end we quit now
Die - or tell the truth - and don't you lie
And tell the truth
Before we die

I always needed love
All I needed was love, was love
And I always wanted you
All I needed was you, was you
It's you, it's you
It's you

Oh, I wanted to be you - dirty like the skies
You live in space
Your life's a waste like mine
So lets just

Stop, before we die
I know you don't care at all
But what if right before the end we quit
Lets try
And what if they're right and it's darkest
Before the light
Come on tell me your truth cause you see I've
Told you mine
Ah lets just stop - before we die
