This Place is a Maze

Roll up to a club

I don't wanna wait in line

But we got lots of money and that amounts for a good time

So we'll skull another can

On a step in Notting Hill

If you don't wanna drink that shit I know someone that will

So we stumbled through the streets

Trying to find a quick away

The creatures of the night are off

And I can smell the day

But I end up getting lost with you

The road I chose was wrong

I am out of cigarettes

My beers are all but gone

We were done for

This place was like a maze

But you had eyes as wide as any I had ever craved

We were done for

This place was like a maze

But you had got some whisky so our drunken states were saved

Drinking in the bar

Can be a sad affair

I was knocking back the shots

I didn't think I'd see you there

But you bought another round for me

And split to do some drugs

You were flying pretty high

And I was flying right above

So we got a friend to walk us home

Collapsed on the bed

I was getting pretty hot for you

Played out the living dead

And I've got a scar to prove it

Though it faded pretty fast

Its not as though the rest of it was ever gonna last

We were done for

This place was like a maze

But you had eyes as wide as any I had ever craved

We were done for

This place was like a maze

But you had got some whisky so our drunken states were saved

We took ourselves to Portobello

You ain't camera shy

I was under taking pictures for you

I think we both know why

And we killed some time and burnt some food and talked ourselves to death

I stole a little snapshot

Its the only thing I've left

Then you started to get comfortable

But I died deep inside

I had just started to like you when you booked yourself a ride

So I went without my sleep until your car showed up at 3

I kind of said goodbye

And then you hopped across the sea

We were done for

This place was like a maze

But you had eyes as wide as any I had ever craved

We were done for

This place was like a maze

But you had got some whisky so our drunken states were saved
