Imaginary Friends
Nada Surf
The Weight Is A Gift (2005)

hey, calling all imaginary friends!
today, don't want no one to tell me how it ends
took breathing for granted
and now i don't know how to breathe
something that you planted
just won't get up and leave

Hey, I'm bewildered and writing myself notes
They say, "If you fake happiness then no one knows."
Convince yourself,
and then you've got it made.
There'll be no black of night,
just turned out lights.

you only get to play one time
Lenny Bruce's bug eyes stare from an LP
asking me just what kind
of fight i got in me
i harbored some ambition
to turn it up like that
i already had obstacles so
why'd you have to cheat?

it's a long story, tell you later
and now the sky looks like Turner
From specifics to the dawn
i've got so many backburners
that keep on

you laughed out loud about someone who
couldn't get their shit together
i laughed along, ha-ha
i almost wish you knew me better

hey, calling all imaginary friends!
