Lyrics:
I just want to feel alive
For the first time in my life
I wanna see you in the limelight, girl
I want you with me all the time
‘Cause if we get sober
We’ll never get old until we die
And I should’ve told you
I feel like I’ve known you my whole life
Where’s that sense of adventure?
That I had in all my younger years
Mid October, the stereo screaming
One hand on your lap
One hand on the feeling
But as I get older
The chip on my shoulder is hard to hide
And as I get older
The child within me starts to die
And if you asked me to stay
I’d be leading with this:
You’re on a very long list of the things that I miss
So won’t you hold me like you did that night
Well maybe I know otherwise
Where’s that sense of danger?
That I felt when we were just two kids
In a bedroom, both skipping school
And you were stealing your Mom’s pills
We would just lay there and stare at each other every night
Well that was the moment that I knew what love was
Then watched it die
And if you asked me to stay
I’d be leading with this:
You’re on a very long list of the things that I miss
So won’t you hold me like you did that night
And if you want to play along
I’ll go in for the kiss
You’ve got a love like a bullet and I’m taking the hit
A voice says: “this won’t last more than tonight”
Well maybe I know otherwise
Maybe I know otherwise
I’m begging you to stay the night
‘Cause I can be the suitor type
So over and over again
This is the soundtrack to my mistakes
This is the soundtrack of all my pain
