Back Alley - Bottles and Books Lyrics




I laugh at my mistakes
Because otherwise they'd burn like fire
And I don't know anymore if I could meet what I have before
With the same kind of courage I convinced myself I had
I've never been an open book
But then again I never learned to read
The movement in her face, her mind is always racing
I guess we're not born knowing what we need

There's no one I trust more
When chemicals collide
I see you coming through on the other side
We've got to play these nights to find a reason to survive
Between the bottles and the books, can't help but wonder
Why am I alive?

Well, the words all seem to change
But the meaning stays the same
I wish she would realize that the sadness in her eyes
Is the same kind of feeling that keeps on ailing me
And maybe you're the one
Who can make my repention last
A race to seeing double is bound to end in trouble
A good love never comes on too fast

There's no one I trust more
When chemicals collide
I see you coming through on the other side
We've got to play these nights to find a reason to survive
Between the bottles and the books
Can't help but wonder
Why am I alive?

Well, you're right and I'm wrong, of course
I just have to laugh at the waste
Let's bury the past while we drown our grace
I wouldn't have it any other way

'Cause there's no one I trust more
When chemicals collide
I hear your pretty voice on the other side
I stumble through these nights to find the reason I get high
Between the bottles and the books
Still searching for the piece of me they took
I lost myself while searching for a hook
