I pissed you off when I tried to stop the rain
You said, 'Chad, I'm sorry, these songs all sound the same'
Then I kissed your cheek like a gentleman
And whispered, 'Don't give up'
All the monsters in this town will act they give a ***k

But I know they don't, they never even learned to love
This is what I've been dreaming of
I'll shade your eyes and tell you, you look pretty
Even when you don't, believe me

I'm a black hole with a personality
I love, love and Rilo Kiley
Most days I hate the rain
Sometimes I don't

It's a damn shame that you still hate change
One day you'll learn
Everything, every where's all the same
With your eyes closed

Just give me two chords and I'll make you cry
It's the slow songs that'll change your life
When you're too tired to even say
'Where's my mind?'

But I know they don't, they never even learned to love
This is what I've been dreaming of
I'll shade your eyes and tell you, you look pretty
Even when you don't, believe me

The drunks all sound like angels
Singing all night from the bar light doors
I wonder when they'll realize
No one's singing along?

These roads all lead to nowhere
In the towns where no one sleeps
Seattle, Dallas and Nashville
A Marietta moon in New York City

But I know they don't, they never even learned to love
This is what I've been dreaming of
I'll shade your eyes and tell you, you look pretty
Even when you don't, believe me

Goddamn these thoughts of mine
I just need one good night
Where things go right for once
My whole life doesn't explode

Seemingly it's a really, really good thing
To know you're invincible
Everybody ends up in the ground
Scared as hell of heaven and whatever might be next

But I know they don't, they never even learned to love
This is what I've been dreaming of
I'll shade your eyes and tell you, you look pretty
Even when you don't, believe me

But I know they don't, they never even learned to love
This is what I've been dreaming of
I'll shade your eyes and tell you, you look pretty
Even when you don't, believe, believe me
