Kiss the World Away

If that phone rings one more time
I'm going to have to kill it
They dug a great big hole in my life
And now I've got to fill it
Think I'm going jump right off
The social ladder
'Cause in my heart of hearts I know
This shit could never matter

I wanna kiss the world away
Get everybody off my shoulder
I feel I'm on a chain gang
Waitin' for the big bang
It's more than I can swallow
Baby, won't you follow
And kiss the world away
You know we haven't made
Love much lately
No, I don't have to soul search
Knowing how my heart hurts
We could make it better
If you and I together
Kiss the world away

I get so tired of tryin' to look interested
While people try to jerk me off
They talk about virtue, "A little bit won't hurt you"
Oh stop, stop, stop
Won't somebody give me a break
And put me on the next boat out to sea
Before it's all a little too late
And the same thing happens to me

I wanna kiss the world away
Get everybody off my shoulder
I feel I'm on a chain gang
Waitin' for the big bang
It's all that I can swallow
Baby, won't you follow
And kiss the world away
You know we haven't made
Love much lately
No, I don't have to soul search
Knowing how my heart hurts
We could make it better
If you and I together
Kiss the world away

Why does everybody think
Anything good
Could never be genuine
You could have left me
When everybody said you should
But still you're mine
Oh baby, you're still mine
Tell me how did I forget
How to love you

Kiss the world away

Kiss the world away
Get everybody off my shoulder
I feel I'm on a chain gang
Waitin' for the big bang
It's all that I can swallow
Baby, won't you follow
And kiss the world away
You know we haven't made
Love much lately
I don't have to soul search
Knowing how my heart hurts
We could make it better
If you and I together

Kiss the world away (Kiss the world away)
Get everybody off my shoulder
I feel I'm on a chain gang
Waitin' for the big bang
It's all that I can swallow
Baby, won't you follow
And kiss the world away (Kiss the world away)
