Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You are a getaway car, a rush of blood to the head
But me, I'm just the covers on top of your bed
You steer in a rear view mirror, make my head swim
I keep you warm and don't ask you where you've been
[Verse 2]
With your backless black dress, stuck to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scrambling
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units
[Verse 3]
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame, such a shame
[Verse 4]
The sounds of this small town make my ears hurt (Make my ears hurt)
But I caught you on worse (Oh yeah, you caught me)
Oh they say, "You want a war? You've got a war"
But who are you fighting for?
Tides out, ship's run aground, we drown traitors in shallow water
[Verse 5]
With your backless black dress, stuck to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scrambling
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units
[Verse 6]
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame, such a shame
[Verse 7]
Everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame, such a shame
[Verse 8]
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
