Been on top of the world since about six months ago
Marking the first time I laid eyes on you
I lost all train of thought as I entered the room
Saw what looked like really good food then I saw you
And so did you

I want to wake up naked next to you
Kissing the curve of your clavicle
Your clavicle

Been on top of the world since about one week ago
Marking the first time I felt numb enough to talk to you
I lost all train of thought as your eyes met mine
Told you I thought you were gorgeous
You gave me your phone number, I gave you mine
Before you left I said that you can bet
I'll be bothering you soon
You said "No bother, please do"

I've called you twice
It's been a hellish fight
To not think about you all the time
Sitting around waiting for your call

I want to wake up naked next to you
Kissing the curve of your clavicle
Your clavicle

I want to wake up naked next to you
Kissing the curve of your clavicle

    Memory:I didn't know this song until a few months ago and heard of the band, but never listened to them.
    One day, I was with my boyfriend and he pushed me or something, can't remember, but I said, "ow! you hit me in the clavicle!" and he said, "wait, you know what that is?" haha then he let me listen to this song because he likes this kind of music. It's a really sweet song I think, and instead of having a rather dismal ending, I like to imagine that he gets the call after the song ends. Now it's just sort of something we do, like some couples will give a random kiss on the cheek, but kissing the collarbone is a reminder that our relationship is special. It's like an inside joke.

    General Comment:This is a tongue in cheek song making fun of the huge crush that Matt had on a girl. The referral to cannibalism is teasing himself for just how obsessed he was over this girl.

    General Comment:I think it's about that moment when you first lay eyes on someone. And there's an immediate attraction. You want that moment to last because you don't know what could happen after. It's the uncertainty that kills.

    General Comment:I agree with the whole swapping numbers and never speaking thing mentioned on the front page. I did that to a girl and feel really bad about it now.
