Of all the gin joints in the world lyrics

Of All the Gin Joints in All the World



I genuinely feel as though this song is definitely about a positive relationship, but at the same time, one full of anxieties and fear.

"You only hold me up like this 'cause you don't know who I really am" This is obviously the person feeling anxious that they're not good enough for the girl, and he's scared to let her know all about himself.

"Sometimes I just want to know what it's like to be you" Perhaps he wants to know how it feels to be loved unconditionally, like he does her?

"We're making out inside crashed cars, we're sleeping through all the memories." I think this isn't so much about the intimacies of their relationship, but how the whole world is messed up, but they don't care because they're in love and how big things are happening around them (the "memories") but it all seems so insignificant to their relationship.

"I used to waste my time dreaming of being alive (now I only waste it dreaming of you)" Again, everything that was so prevelant to the guy has just been shoved back. It's like she's engulfed him but he doesn't care because maybe it's making him feel alive (

Fall Out Boy - Of All The Gin Joints In All The World



All of our moves make up for the silence
Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness

(Now I only waste my time dreaming of you)
I used to waste my time dreaming of being alive
We're sleeping through all our memories
We're making out inside crashed cars
Sometimes I just want to know what it's like to be you
Cause you don't know who I really am
You only hold me up like this
And oh, the way your makeup stains my pillowcase
Like I'll never be the same

You only hold me up like this
Cause you don't know who I really am
I used to waste my time dreaming of being alive
(Now I only waste my time dreaming of you)

Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness
All of our moves make up for the silence
And oh, the way your makeup stains my pillowcase
Like I'll never be the same

I've got headaches and bad luck but they couldn't touch you
I've got headaches and bad luck but they couldn't touch you
I'm not trying
You only hold me up like this

Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness
All of our moves make up for the silence
And oh, the way your makeup stains
Like I'll never be the same

Lyrics of Of All The Gin Joints In All The World by Fall Out Boy


You only hold me up like this

′Cause you don't know who I really am

Sometimes, I just want to know what it′s like to be you

We're making out inside crashed cars

We're sleeping through all our memories

I used to waste my time dreaming of being alive

(Now I only waste it dreaming of you)



Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness

′Cause all of our moves make up for the silence

And oh, the way your makeup stains my pillowcase

Like I′ll never be the same



You only hold me up like this

'Cause you don′t know who I really am

I used to waste my time on

Waste my time dreaming of being alive

(Now I only waste it dreaming of you)



Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness

'Cause all of our moves make up for the silence

And oh, the way your makeup stains my pillowcase

Like I′ll never be the same



I've got headaches and bad luck, but they couldn′t touch you, no

I've got headaches and bad luck, but they couldn't touch you, no

I′m not trying, you only hold me up like this



Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness

′Cause all of our moves make up for

this song is about parking. Parking for those that don't know is when you hook up in a car. The couple in the song have just met "Turn off the lights an turn off the shyness because all our moves make up for the silence." Also there is another line,"We're making out inside crashed cars and sleeping through all the memories." This line indicates the relationship isn't important, it's just a hook up because you don't sleep through memories, you are awake and nostalgic for the memories. The line "You only hold me up like this because you don't know who i really am." indicates the couple have just met and don't know each other. The line "I've got headaches and bad luck but they couldn't touch and know. I'm not trying you only hold me up like this." could indicate that the couple was drunk and hadn't not intended to hook up that night and no one has to touch or know about what happened. The line, "And oh, the way your make-up stains my pillow case like I'll never be the same." indicates that the singer will never forget the hook up and his reputation will be changed. Fin
