Gaslight Anthem (The Song Not The Band) - Thin Lips

The common ground

That’s where I plant my shoes

Here I thought I was next to you

A stubborn town

My mouth opens and closes

Spit on my tongue while my pride decomposes

And you just stare

And you just stare

And you just stare

And you just

Squint my eyes

It’s hard to see

Beneath my skin

It’s haunting me

I feel my past

Just swelling out

The change I made

Just won’t add up

It’s no surprise

I’m demonized

A different town

That’s where I had to move

Had to go to get away from you

But I was bound

My words turn into poison

Flipped on your tongue to convey disappointment

But I was there

I won’t just let it go

And life’s not fair

That lesson’s hard, I know

Squint my eyes

It’s hard to see

What I thought I said

It’s haunting me

I feel my past

Just swelling out

You just can’t buy

Your way through love

It’s no surprise

I’m demonized
