Senseless Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I watched the words drip from you
And pour from your mouth like a sieve
I'll end like I did begin
Jump rope the stars in a game

[Refrain]
But you were there too, we spit from the Moon
And found their heads down below
I can't make no sense of this
I can't make no sense of this at all

[Verse 2]
Sad inconsistencies you see
You find yourself lonely but right next to me

[Refrain]
Well, I was there too just as lonely as you
We found their heads down below
I can't make no sense of this
I can't make no sense of it at all

[Pre-Chorus]
So what's this young man to do?
What's this young man to do, what's this young man to do?
What's this young man to do, what's this young man to do?
[Chorus]
And when the summer ends, yeah, I'll be there hidin'
And when the sun rises, yeah, I'll stay warm forever

[Bridge]
Many have come before, many have been
Where will we be, when will it end?
Many have come before, many have been
Where will we be?

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]
You were there too, we spit from the Moon
And found their heads down below
I can't make no sense of this
I can't make no sense of this at all

[Pre-Chorus]
So, what's this young man to do?
What's this young man to do, what's this young man to do?
What's this young man to do, what's this young man to do?

[Chorus]
And when the summer ends, yeah, I'll be there hidin'
And when the sun rises, yeah, I'll stay warm forever
And when the summer ends, yeah, I'll be there hidin'
And when the sun rises, yeah, I'll stay warm forever
[Outro]
And when the summer ends, yeah, I'll stay warm

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
