Call To Love lyrics - Jimmy Eat World (feat. Bethany Cosentino)

(originally by Crooked Fingers)

Those fancy things your new boy bought you for
Won't save a jaded girl like you
So I must question what you take me for
I know for him your love is not true
So while, while you lay with that joker tonight
My friend and his love just ain't doing you right again
Won't you hear my heart
I'm transmitting a call to love

It's true I heard a birdy say your name
But I'm a straight talk woman, got no time for games
Don't need my heart kicked around the block no more
You may be smooth talking daddy but I've heard it all before
So I don't care if you're making that sound
No heart receives love when it's broken down
So how am I supposed to hear
Or take heed to this call to love?

I found a hundred different ways to say that I am not in love with you
Or maybe more if I was sure but I'd be lying not to be your fool
So come on, love is a fine thing to take a chance on
Send it back before the signal is gone
Oh, won't you call to me?
Won't you send me your call to love?
So come on, love is a fine thing to take a chance on
Send it back before the signal is gone
Oh, won't you answer me?
I'm transmitting a call to love
Oh, won't you answer me?
I'm transmitting your call to love

Firestarter lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

(originally by Prodigy)

I'm the trouble starter
Punkin' instigator
I'm the fear addicted
Danger illustrated

I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter

I'm the bitch you hated
Filth infatuated
I'm the pain you tasted
Well intoxicated

I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter

I'm the self inflicted
My detonator
I'm the one inflicted
Twisted and animated

I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter

I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter

I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter

half heart lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

When there's no comfort in comfortable
The stolen chances and colored cars
You can invest with your full heart
You feel it crumble before you start

The path you didn't take, it always ends
Perfect only 'cause you never did
The moments that we have will soon be gone
Either you're here or you're not
You're here or you're not

The floating fire is hard to hold
Our fingers pass right through its glow
There's peace out there somewhere in time
But I'm as real as you will find

The path you didn't take, it always ends
Perfect only 'cause you never did
The moment that we have is almost gone
Either you're here or you're not
Either you're here or you're not

The path you didn't take, it always ends
Perfect only 'cause you never did
The moment that we have is almost gone
Either you're here or you're not
Either you're here or you're not

Jen lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

Jen
Don't be scared, don't be shy
We use to do this all the time
You know it Jen

Jen
We could be happy now
So jet across the coast and country, Jen
Sometimes Jennifer
Live for too long and then your chance is gone

The choice we're meant to take
Is one they'll never take
All you have to do is say

Jen
I think you tried just a little hard
Acting like something you not
Jen
I wanna make you feel the way you should
You have to let things go to keep them close
What you'll do today
Already has a name
Is anything but a mistake

Jen
Don't be scared, no don't be shy
We used to do it all the time
Ya-Ya-You know it Jen
It's you and me, what could that mean?
You can't pretend we're only friends then walk away

No one's looking now
Take a chance, come on
Could do anything you want

Jen
Put your arms around someone soft
Take it as it comes, trust your heart
Trust me

You know it, Jen
Put your arms around someone soft
Take it as it comes, trust your heart
Trust me

Trust your heart, trust me
You know it, Jen

Last Christmas lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

(originally by Wham!)

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Now I've found the real love, now I found
You'll never fool me again!

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Now I've found the real love, now I found
You'll never fool me again!

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special

My Enemy lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

The story is common
So plain we pass by often
All motion defeated
By endless what-if questions
Obvious, we own it
Our anxious scars and bruises
Heavy hands swing slowly
With weight of our own choosing, now

We know but can't believe it's easy as it sounds
We know but always told, "If we let go, we drown"

Thirsty for comfort
Too proud to ask for answers
Libraries of suggestion
The loudest voice is hidden
Obvious, so simple
Action makes for removal
Heavy heart, bad posture
Collapse and falling under, now

We know but can't believe it's easy as it sounds
We know but always told, "If we let go, we drown"

You feel the tide is rising
That water's cold as hell
Think enemies surround you
Everyone, except yourself

Your condition
Fake direction is no protection

No Sensitivity lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

Well I've got my car we could go and sit a while
I know it won't turn over but we'll get somewhere just the same
Now honey, I'm through talking
It's the strangest thing, but I feel safe when I'm lonely
Don't take too much
You'll get burned if it's all at one time

The world don't spin without you
I'm amazed you're standing still
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you
Your problems, they aren't problems
So be glad they never will
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you

Take it easy, don't you get
It's just expression
Would you raise your voice every time a little dirt gets under?
Cry if you want, it's the return of no sensitivity
You don't have to scream to say something that you honestly mean

The world don't spin without you
I'm amazed you're standing still
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you
And no your problems, they aren't problems
So be glad they never will
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you

When you hear those footsteps calling
Isn't it obvious? Isn't it obvious?
It's OK if you don't answer
I thought it was obvious
I thought it was obvious

The world don't spin without you
I'm amazed you're standing still
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you

Your problems, they aren't problems
Thank God they never will, never will
I want my kisses back from you
Kisses back from you, you, you
I want my kisses back from you

Place Your Debts lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

Gentlemen, place your debts
Payment in full by future you
I think we can all agree
The ending is off to a great start

The present is soon replaced
In small increments attention fades
One or another way
The house collects its mark

How do we keep making all the same mistakes?
We'd rather have the misery than growing pains

I chose a mystery
Went there alone, intentionally
I had to forgive myself
For grieving imaginary loss

You'll pay with the life not lived
You pay with each thought of what could have been
But nothing adds to the cost
Like missing the ride you're on

How do we keep making all the same mistakes?
We'd rather have the misery than growing pains
Growing pains

Gentlemen, place your debts
I'd wish you good luck, but luck isn't it
The driver and passenger
Don't go the same place

How do we keep making all the same mistakes?
We'd rather have the misery than growing pains

Roller Queen lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

I blame it on my entrance
It may have seemed too much like confidence
Let me start it over
Help me get to what I can from when I did

All that I know is how I can hold on
All that you see is how I let go

(Take me back, please)

Had to leave my reasons
It may have seemed too much, the consequence
And in your busy, dizzy life
You will become everything you said you would

All that I know is how I can hold on
All that you see is how I let go

So how about once around?

Softer lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

She's perfect in her own way
Smoke rings rising to the winter grey
She's perfect in her own way
Shining, stepping off a silver train

Now, I'm getting a sick taste in my mouth
From the medicine that I can't keep down

She's amazing in her own way
Always moving to a better place
She's amazing in her own way
Laughing, you won't get to the weaker traits

Now, I'm getting that sick taste in my mouth
From the medicine that I can't keep down
You know, time heals nothing by itself
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
I see that ever so clearly now

She looks a little bit different now
Maybe a little bit softer around her eyes
Just a little bit different now
Maybe a little bit softer around her eyes

The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady

The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady

The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady

The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady

Now, I'm getting that sick taste in my mouth
From the medicine that I can't keep down
You know, time heals nothing by itself
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
I see that ever so clearly now

(The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center)
(Take it slow and make it softer)
(Easy likes it nice and steady)

Something Loud lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

I walked around for days
In a familiar place
This time I finally let myself own every small feeling
There was the one who got away
There was a first for everything
Never a second guess if I was right where I should be
Do you know what I mean?

All night
Do you still feel part of something loud?
All night
Are you such a different person now?
A dream that never was
An idea you think you come from
All night
When you can't look at the day

I had it figured out
The way it really is
In growing up we've added just too much complexity
Friends at the show in '95
Miss every one of them
But there's a moment that you die or you move on to live
Every one of us did

All night
Do you still feel part of something loud?
All night
Are you such a different person now?
A dream that never was
An idea you think you come from
All night
When you can't look at the day

I had what I had
And god damn
I would change
Not a single thing
So smile, wave
Then let go

All night
Do you still feel part of something loud?
All night
Are you such a different person now?
A dream that never was
An idea you think you come from
All night
When you can't look at the day

(All night)
When you can't look at the day
(All night)
When you can't look at the day

Telepath lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

In my mind
You are an old empty old apartment
Sitting on your mother's table
Next to you is her
Carving out our names into each
Piece of wood and concrete
Told her I don't have a lot
But you can have my soul

Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No
Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No

In your mind, this is some new
And glorious morning
And you ain't ever gonna let
Nobody take that light again
Everyone I know is slowly
Falling in the ocean
I don't want to be
The next to row
I never learned to swim

Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No
Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No

In my mind, you are the road
I chose to travel
Might as well have been
The very last thing I decide
Half the time I'm lost, afraid
That you're just borrowed
It don't matter much to me
I'm not afraid to die

Baby are you with me?
Do you forgive me?
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old
Baby are you with me?
Do you forgive me?
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old
When I'm falling
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old
When I'm falling
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old

Yer Feet lyrics - Jimmy Eat World

I was drunk when I met you
I was drunk when I walked out the door
And I rolled around the night to find you
But I guess you never knew
You just needed something solid you could hold
Like a dog that came when you called
Like a coatstand that sits out in the hall
And you don't need me

It's yer feet you don't need
Always facing back a way you just came
I don't love you any more, I don't need you
I'm just keeping a score
You said life's too short to be bored
All this rollin' around on the floor
Won't get you what you want it's just a waste
And you don't need me

So I look at every woman
Just to see if there's something there for me
And I look up every moment
Just to know if I'm missing something sweet
And I need something solid to hold
Like a dog that comes when I call
Like a brick I can throw against a wall
And I don't need you
No I don't need you
No I don't need you
No I don't need you
