When You Drive

Hot night in the neon dream
Fist fight, crown me like a queen
Bad boy with a buzz cut pulling off my jeans
Everytime sippin' cold Sprite like a rehearsed scene
I can't move on
I can't get off
I can't get high
Now that you're gone
I can't get lost
I can't get high
You drive me home but you won't stay the night
Kiss me hard under lilac skies
You pick me up and I could almost die
Feels like flyin' when you drive
When you drive
And he's so sick always on the attack
Was I too quick? I hit the ground with a smack
Tell me can I love you when the night's so black
Maybe in the daylight you could love me back
I can't move on
I can't get off
I can't get high
You drive me home but you won't stay the night
Kiss me hard under lilac skies
You pick me up and I could almost die
Feels like flyin' when you drive
When you drive
When you drive
When you drive
Dark night, dark deed
Booze run, night feed
Don't count me out when I cross my heart
I just fell down to count the stars
I can't move on
I can't get off
I can't get high, I can't get high
You pull up late spoutin' Tennessee
Scream my name like Kowalski
Get all revved up here in the dark backseat
I feel alive when you
You drive me home but you won't stay the night
Kiss me hard under lilac skies
You pick me up and I could almost die
Feels like flyin' when you drive
When you drive
When you drive
When you drive

Midnight Ride
04:42
|
|||
|
I didn't know where I went wrong
Sitting alone with drinking songs
Singing of how we were so long ago
How can I say how much it meant
Kids on the run barely men
Spent everything we had on weed and rent
We were just best friends, boyfriends
Lovers on a lonely ride
Singing midnight, is our time
Never wanna say goodnight
Thought movie stardom was our fate
Get our break in some Oscar bait
Now Hollywood's burning how long will we have to wait
To spill out our guts on the silver screen?
A record a year's less cathartic than it seems
Now venues are closing right in time with our dreams
We were just best friends, boyfriends
Lovers on a lonely ride
Singing midnight, is our time
Never wanna say goodnight
If I had known just how far you would go
Well I, I'd never have left you all alone, no
And now given the chance I'd ask for one more dance
And for one more ride with you tonight
At midnight
We were just best friends, boyfriends
Lovers on a lonely ride
Singing midnight, is our time
Never wanna say goodnight
We were just best friends, boyfriends
(Given the chance I'd ask for one more dance)
Lovers on a lonely ride
Singing midnight, is our time
(And for one more ride with you tonight)
Never wanna say goodnight
(At midnight)

Roadkill
03:46
|
|||
|
You find me and claim me at the side of the road
Strip off my hide and take me home
You kill 'em, we grill 'em ain't just a bad joke
When you hang me up and leave me to smoke
This man could kill me as I sip on a beer
He bought the good stuff but it don't quench the fear
That either of us could be a Nilsen or worse
I'll wake up tomorrow under six feet of earth
All things considered
Getting out alive is a miracle
In spite of all the dark thoughts we whispered
Don't wanna end up like roadkill
Southern discomfort, the weight of your life
The calls you've been missing, more than one from your wife
Smoke your lonely evenings out and drink yourself down
When you finally call, I'll come around
Digital age insomniac blues
This is our culture, this is abuse
Started out at seventeen like all the songs say
Ya boy's had his worst night and straight to work the next day
All things considered
Getting out alive is a miracle
In spite of all the dark thoughts we whispered
Don't wanna end up like roadkill
God I've been reckless, been out of my mind
Tryna prove nothing, just wasting a life
Falling for anyone who'd give me the time
And wake up the next day ready to die
But God I've been lucky, thank God I'm alive
In spite of my bad taste, and lone walks at night
Keep putting our little lives in other mens' hands
And keep telling no one cause they won't understand
All things considered
Getting out alive is a miracle
In spite of all the dark thoughts we whispered
Don't wanna end up like roadkill

[JOE]
The boy on the bike, the boy on the Jim Beam
Pretty as I've seen, scary as hell
And I fall like rain, into his sad arms
I crave rough kisses and nights off, amazed he even shows up
The boy on the edge, the boy on the tightrope
Hands around my throat, screaming my name
Then he falls like sand, counting the veins on my hand
Counting the ways I demand we play out this game
But with you right by my side
With you I don't have to hide
We drive out through the woods at night
With your hard hand on my thigh
[DEAD METHOD]
I tell a lie, I learn by example
Just how to be awful, how to be used
And I wish I'd swing and save you the same rotten thing
But all that he taught me to sing are the bad boy blues
[BOTH]
But with you right by my side
With you I don't have to hide
We drive out through the woods at night
With your hard hand on my thigh
[DEAD METHOD]
Oh you're heaven sent to me
Look like hell but only angels taste so sweet
Don't you know I'd go on drinking for two
If you go how will I ever live without
[BOTH]
But with you right by my side
(Oh you're heaven sent to me)
With you I don't have to hide
(Look like hell but only angels taste so sweet)
We drive out through the woods at night
(Don't you know I'd go on drinking for two)
With your hard hand on my thigh
(If you go how could I ever live without)

Sirens
03:42

I look great blood runnin' down my face
Dead of night he holds me like it's fate
He shines bright under neon light
Bring me to life every Friday night
Sirens play our favourite song
You say we can be together all night long
Who the hell is gonna hold me if you're wrong?
Sirens sound like bells when you are gone
Out at night spoilin' for a fight
One more black eye, escape on your dirt bike
Sirens play our favourite song
You say we can be together all night long
Who the hell is gonna hold me if you're wrong?
Sirens sound like bells when you are gone
You're black leather, I'm blue denim
You're insane and I'm in heaven
Dancin' in the streets like Mick
Drinks so cheap I'm- "baby"
Sirens play our favourite song
You say we can be together all night long
Who the hell is gonna hold me if you're wrong?
Sirens sound like bells when you are gone
"You're the moonlight, you're the road
Broken glass, hands on my throat
But I'm not dead yet, though I pretend
A bad boy's waiting around the bend
It's a movie, you're the star
I play along in a stolen car
Put my life in your hands, your dreams in mine
Copper hair and blood is fine
I take you home, you rough me up
You couldn't kill me, but it's enough
All the fights and all the static
Just to wear your denim jacket"

Dirt Bike Love - Demo

"Talk a little obscene to me
Play a little love scene with me
Pour another Jim Beam for me
And talk a little obscene to me"
All I want is a soft-hearted, hard-headed lover tonight
"With a slow kiss, and a fast draw, and a loud bike"
All I want is a smooth-talking, rough-handed rider tonight
"With a dark past, and a bright spark, and a sharp knife"
And it's you on the dirt bike you make my favourite nights
"Sippin' bourbon is how I come undone"
You in the moonlight, you make me feel alright
"Do you feel alright? Do you feel alright?"
God knows I love the things that we've had when we've been bad
"Hot night, encore on the dirt bike"
I hate it when we're going slow, hate watching you go
"It's a sad-core love bite on the dance floor"
And it's you on the dirt bike you make my favourite nights
"When it's low-tide, gettin' high down by the quayside"
You in the moonlight, you make me feel alright
"Do you feel alright? Do you feel alright?"
Livin' off a summer crush, petroleum rush
"On the train-lines, with your white lines, we're burnin'"
I don't wanna live another day, if I can't keep you this way
"All I wanna hear you say is-"
It's you at the turnpike, you breakin' my heart twice
"With a black eye, and an eighth, and a buck knife"
You ridin' all night, me screaming 'fuck my life'
"Do you feel alright? Do you feel alright?"
And it's you on the dirt bike you make my favourite nights
"Do you feel alright? Do you feel alright?"
You in the moonlight, you make me feel alright
"Do you feel alright? Do you feel alright?"
"Your kiss feels like stealin', your kiss feels like stealin'
Locked in your eyes I'm kneelin', ready to pray, ready to pray
Let's get married tonight, let's get married tonight, let's get married tonight, racin' through- racin' through red lights, and get down
All I want is a soft-hearted, hard-headed lover tonight"
