Abandoned Driveways

(album: Skeletons - 2010)

breathe me in, I am your nicotine
I'll fill your lungs until you cannot breathe
swallow me down, I am your alcohol
I'll fill your gut with all the pain and loss
when you pass out, so you can sleep it off

bloodshot eyes don't tell the truth
abandoned drives lead to abuse
but I won't let you get away so soon
roll the dice, you'll either win or lose
your alibi has got me confused
but I won't let you get away so soon

crush me up, I am your amphetamines
I'll keep you up so you cannot dream
start with me, I am your gateway drug
turn to me when you don't belong
listen once, and you can turn me off

bloodshot eyes don't tell the truth
abandoned drives lead to abuse
but I won't let you get away so soon
roll the dice, you'll either win or lose
your alibi has got me confused
but I won't let you get away so soon

breathe me in, breathe me in
swallow me down and listen once
I am your gateway, gateway drug
I am your gateway, gateway drug
I am your gateway, gateway drug

if you open your eyes
I know you'll find yourself pain

bloodshot eyes don't tell the truth
abandoned drives lead to abuse
but I won't let you get away so soon
roll the dice, you'll either win or lose
your alibi has got me confused
but I won't let you get away so soon
