[Verse 1]
I'm pulling pictures outta their frames
The sky turns yellow and I pretend to be brave
I cry on the phone, I forget my own name
I kiss it goodbye just in case
I cock my head six degrees to the right
Will it look different in a different light?
'Cause when you pick what you love
You pick what you leave behind
In case you kiss it goodbye
[Pre Chorus]
And when this all blows over, I'll sit on the 405
Wondering how in hell that hell didn’t change my mind
It’s like—
[Hook]
Give me five more minutes
I'm a slave to my dreams and the things, if I leave, that I might be missing
If I left like I should, I’d lose old Hollywood’s value proposition
And if I stay, I might just win it
So could you give me five more minutes?
'Cause I'm not finished
[Verse 2]
Funny, the oranges lived through the fire
Some poem 'bout thick skin protecting desire
Cradling sweetness, if just to survive
I promise I'll try
[Pre-Chorus]
And when this all blows over, I'll sit on the 405
Wondering how in hell that hell didn’t change my mind
It’s like—
[Hook]
Give me five more minutes
I'm a slave to my dreams and the things, if I leave, that I might be missing
If I left like I should, I’d lose old Hollywood’s value proposition
And if I stay, I might just win it
So could you give me five more minutes?
'Cause I'm not finished
[Bridge]
I just need a little more time, a little more time
I don’t wanna stay, but I don’t wanna say goodbye
I just need a little more time, a little more time
Well, baby, you got five more minutes
