Come As You Are Lyrics
Civil Twilight
Lyrics
Come as you are, as you were, as I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, as an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up, the choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest, as a friend, as an old memoria, memoria, memoria
Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach, as I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria, memoria, memoria
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun, no, I don't have a gun
Memoria, memoria
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun, no, I don't have a gun
No, I don't
No, I don't have a gun, no, I don't have a gun
I swear I don't have a gun, no, I don't have a gun
