R.E.X. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Codeine ain't working anymore
Show me, come instruct this tour
Kiss me, show me what those lips are for
Breathe you I don't have a reason to leave you
Just know that I'm here to please you
Here to keep you, here to breed you
Up in Lawnside I always knew we had a strong vibe
I can tell that just from one night

Now I see you crying through those long eyes
Don't worry babe it's alright
You don't have to worry girl you're all mine
Now you're shining brighter than the sunlight

And just yesterday we were holding hands in a masquerade party
Everybody saw us dancing lively
