Backseat Lovers
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Might fall in love, but its dead tonight.
Gonna make it right.
Feel your lungs get tight.
Blankets and sheets can't hold the heat.
Hearts will barely beat on these easy streets.
One, Two.
Can't see straight but you're breakin' on through.
Three, Four.
Losing your touch on the bathroom floor.
All your life has been a cryin' shame.
Nobody's gonna know your name.
We all want someone to love.
Early morning, everybody feels unholy.
Livin' with plastic souls, we are
Backseat lovers jumping out the window.
The sun's up soon.
Its gonna back hand the moon.
And, the song of the sorry I your signature tune.
Breaking apart, we wait for the dark,
As the cries of mercy extinguish the spark.
One, Two.
Can't see straight but you're breakin' on through.
Three, Four.
Losing your touch on the bathroom floor.
And so we bury ourselves to the neck, in cement.
Of numbers, and letters and flesh we repent.
And the bastards (the slime) get rich and decay…
As they shake for a drug, at the start of their day.
And I suppose its been proven.
That satellites watch our every move..
Tape machines on public corners.
1's and 0's breathing for us.
But ask anyone in a falling elevator.
Does the steel and the mirror, and the glass make it clearer?
All your life has been a cryin' shame.
Nobody's gonna know your name.
We all want someone to love.
Early morning, everybody feels unholy.
Livin' with plastic souls, we are
Backseat lovers jumping out the window.
All your life has been a cryin' shame.
Nobody's gonna know your name.
We all want someone to love.
Early morning, everybody feels unholy.
Livin' with plastic souls, we are
Backseat lovers jumping out the window.
