Lyrics

[Verse 1: Anthony Kiedis] Won't somebody come along and teach me how to keep it alive to survive? Come along and show me something that I never knew in your eyes Take away the tourniquet [Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis] I used to be so full of my confidence I used to know just what I wanted and just where to go More than ever I could use a coincidence But, now I walk alone and talk about it when I know [Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] Hey, oh yeah, how long? I guess I ought to walk away Hey, oh yeah, so long What you gonna do today? [Guitar Solo (1/3): John Frusciante] [Post-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis] I don't wanna have to, but I will, if that's what I'm supposed to do We don't wanna set up for the kill, but that's what I'm about to do [Verse 2: Anthony Kiedis] Let it on, I'll cut you off when you're screaming into the phone Hard to own Anyway, I wanna let you know that everything is on hold What you gonna do to me? [Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis] You used to be so warm and affectionate All the little things I used to hear my fairy say But, now you're quick to get into your regret I'll take the fall and now you got to give it all away [Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] Hey, oh yeah, how long? I guess I ought to walk away Hey, oh yeah, so long What you gonna do today? [Guitar Solo (2/3): John Frusciante] [Post-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] I don't wanna have to, but I will, if that's what I'm supposed to do We don't wanna set up for the kill, but that's what I'm about to do I don't wanna have to, but I will, if that's what I'm supposed to do We don't wanna set up for the kill, but that's what I'm about to do [Bridge: Anthony Kiedis, John Frusciante, Both] (Hey) Hey, what would you say if I stayed? Stayed for a while, if I may (Oh) Say it again and I'll come around, but not for the last time (Hey) Hey, what would you say if I changed? I'll change everything but my name (Oh) Play it again and I'll come around, come around But not for the last time, not for the last time [Guitar Solo (3/3): John Frusciante] [Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] You used to be so warm and affectionate I used to know just what I wanted and just where to go And now you're quick to get into your regret And now I walk alone and talk about it when I know [Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] Hey, oh yeah, how long? I guess you gotta walk away Hey, oh yeah, so long What you gonna do today? Hey, oh yeah, how long? I guess you gotta get away Hey, oh yeah, so long What you gonna do today?
