Lyrics Self Against City

Self Against City

Ready and Willing

He's just that boy from out of town

Only stops here twice a year

He says your pretty and he adores you

Reciting dialogue from classic romances (dialogue from the classics that he steals)

But Scarlet my dear

He doesn't give a damn about you

Overrated boys and attention starved girls

A little curious, a little insecure

They call it love it might be premature

But they don't need excuses

She's just that girl from another town

Know her name by the letter of city and state

Brown hair, blue eyes, she's about 5'5"

She'd never lie to you

But fidelity is no concern

When you have become this

Overrated boys and attention starved girls

A little curious, a little insecure

They call it love it might be premature

But they don't need excuses

To feel used, to feel lust, to feel wanted for once

To know there's somebody else who's dying to feel anything

Ready and willing

I guess now it's safe to say

Sincerity has become a lost art these days

And if it's just to drown attention

Or maybe cool the friction

I think it's time we cleared the haze

Or we're just...

Overrated boys and attention starved girls

A little curious, a little insecure

They call it love it might be premature

But they don't need excuses

To feel used, to feel lust, to feel wanted for once

To know there's somebody else who's dying to feel anything

Ready and willing

Ready and willing

Ready and willing
