Straight Up and Down Songtext
von The Brian Jonestown Massacre

I try to see, well, I guess that I′m blind
She's fine with me
′Cause I'm gonna keep on trying

'Cause I′ve made disappointment my very best friend
I wait to see
What you′re gonna be and when, yeah

We don't want you be yourself, you see
We want you to free yourself
We don′t want you to see yourself, all free
We want you to be you, I love you
Don't you try so hard


I never feel like I feel when I′m flying
I don't care where I′m living or I'm dying, yeah

We don't want you be yourself, you see
We want you to free yourself
We don′t want you to see yourself, all free
We want you to be you, I love you
Don′t you try so hard

'Cause I know it so well
How I never could tell
Who′s my very best friend
Now I know it so well

I could make it in me
