I'm Low On Gas And You Need A Jacket
Pierce The Veil · Collide With The Sky [2012]
Choke, tried to wash you down with salt, then drunk
Tried, but the taste of blood remains
Cold, empty mattresses and falling stars
My, how they start to look the same
So keep in happiness
And torture me while I tell you,
"Let's go in style"
A million hooks around
A million ways to die
Darling, it's cold outside...
No, no more eyes to see the sun
You slide into bed while I get drunk
Slow conversations with a gun
Meaning more than I've ever said to anyone
Anyone
So keep in happiness
And torture me while I tell you,
"Let's go in style"
A million hooks around
A million ways to die
Darling, let's go inside
It'll be alright
But last night,
You said ended up in Palm Springs dancing on tables
Almost fought some bitch at the club (YEAH! )
Got kicked out of your hotel and lost your shoes
Well fuck, what am I supposed to be impressed?
You're just another set of bones to lay to rest
I guess it's time to say goodnight
Hope you had a really good time.
Good time...
But I will soon forget the color of your eyes
And you'll forget mine
So keep in happiness
And torture me while I tell you,
"Let's go in style"
A million hooks around
A million ways to die
Let's go outside
It'll be alright
But last night,
You said ended up in Palm Springs dancing on tables.
Tried, but the taste of blood remains
Cold, empty mattresses and falling stars
My, how they start to look the same
So keep in happiness
And torture me while I tell you,
"Let's go in style"
A million hooks around
A million ways to die
Darling, it's cold outside...
No, no more eyes to see the sun
You slide into bed while I get drunk
Slow conversations with a gun
Meaning more than I've ever said to anyone
Anyone
So keep in happiness
And torture me while I tell you,
"Let's go in style"
A million hooks around
A million ways to die
Darling, let's go inside
It'll be alright
But last night,
You said ended up in Palm Springs dancing on tables
Almost fought some bitch at the club (YEAH! )
Got kicked out of your hotel and lost your shoes
Well fuck, what am I supposed to be impressed?
