Nervous In The Alley

Less Than Jake · Hello Rockview [1998]

On a tuesday in the rain,

I never thought there'd come

A day if I put myself to the test,

Would I ever raise a fist

Would I just shut my mouth,

Would I just block it out?



I've sworn a million times

Never to be left,

Standing with that feeling of hopelessness,

Just standing nervous in the alley



When all is said and through would

I know just what to do and if I put

Myself to the test would I ever

Raise a fist would I just shut my



Mouth or just block it out



I've sworn a million times never

To be left, standing with that

Feeling of hopelessness,

Just standing nervous in the alley



Is it a change of heart,

That keeps us apart -

And you say it's true

And we know it's true

When all we have left is me and you



And it's so strange,

When all I have left to say

Is I wonder what's worth fighting for?
