alex dezen - leonardo lyrics
[verse 1]
she was just a young girl
in the early nineteenth century
and i was a teenager
getting in fights in the city
she was stuck all alone
in a world full of luxury
ready to jump off the boat
and throw her life away into the sea
[verse 2]
then she met a young man
who’s been in a ton of pretty good movies
my girlfriend would still sleep with him
even in his forties
he was kind of an artists
a cheesy artist painter guy
when i was a cowardly guy
he was a brave one, willing to die
[chorus]
cause he was ready when the ship went down
and i was crying in the fourteenth row
trying not to make a sound
cause honestly
i would probably just freak out
amber yelling at me, “don’t let go”
i know i’ll never be a leonardo
[verse 3]
he was cool, so cool
like a dylan
so brave and confident
and i was just kind of a short jewish kid
with long hair and green dye in it
he wasn’t looking for romance
you can say the same about a bomb or a bullet
love and hate can come when you least expect it
[verse 4]
he just wanted to paint her
make her as sharp as she was soft
but that kind of seemed to me
to be an excuse to get her clothes off
of course i tried to do that one time
when i was still in college
she laughed at me and said
“are you f-cking serious?”
[chorus]
he was ready when the ship went down
and i was crying in the fourteenth row
trying not to make a sound
cause honestly
i would probably just freak out
amber yelling at me, “don’t let go”
i know i’ll never be a leonardo
[bridge]
all the ice and the rocks and the greed
and all the other things that i can’t see
are just a few things that would keep me
from saving kate, i bet
i would do whatever i can, you know
pray to god for a helping hand
but it’s pretty shitty circ-mstances
i hope you understand
[chorus]
he was ready when the ship went down
and i was crying in the fourteenth row
trying not to make a sound
cause honestly
i would probably just freak out
amber yelling at me, “don’t let go”
i know i’ll never be
but maybe that’s okay
if you say you love me
i know i’ll never be a leonardo
