Stripes Lyrics

Everybody needs someone they can call there own

And you’re welcome almost everywhere

But you still don’t have a home

So I’ll keep staring at the ceiling

And that girl who looks like love

And force down an another drink

And here come the tears

They tend not to explain

And here comes the fear

It's trying to mask my pain

Now there’s stars strewn across the floor

They must have fallen from the sky

And they’re not the only ones who fell for someone tonight

('Cause I fell for you)

And in the corner of the bed against the wall

He’s just waiting for your call

Just waiting for your call

And here comes the fear

It tends to not explain

And here comes the fear

Trying to mask my pain

Better step it up a gear

To keep up with your twisted games

Just because you’ve got long blonde hair

Doesn’t give you a pass to fame

Now there’s a girl in stripes

Walking off into the lights

She tends not to explain

She tends not to have a name
