I Wanna Be Here (Shotgun)

(album: Twin Shadow - 2021)

Stomping on the bleachers
Beautiful creatures
Waiting for the nightfall
20 ways to drown it all
Maybe we could freeze this
Maybe we could leave this place

You're my savior
Listen to the preacher
I can be your rock 'n' roll teacher
Show it on my face
I'm a known seeker
Maybe you'll stay right here for the sequel

Fire in your dark world
Run run run
Talk about my black curls
Bite your tongue
Somebody say
"I want to be here"
Not dragged down
Raised up
Not background
"I want to be here"
Not backseat
Shotgun

Feeling in our guts, got me stuck
Need power, need luck
Never knew I could feel so good
New power, new love

You're my savior
Listen to the preacher
I can be your rock 'n' roll teacher
Show it on my face
I'm a known seeker
Maybe you'll stay right here for the sequel

Fire in your dark world
Run run run
Talk about my black curls
Bite your tongue
Somebody say
"I want to be here"
Not dragged down
Raised up
Not background
"I want to be here"
Not backseat
Shotgun

Fire in your dark world
Run run run
Talk about my black curls
Bite your tongue
Somebody say
"I want to be here"
Not dragged down
Raised up
Not background
"I want to be here"
Not backseat

I wanna be here
Somebody say
I wanna be here
I wanna be here
Somebody say
I wanna be here
Not backseat
Shotgun
