lyrics
Nicotine tongue tied to my touch
I want to taste tomorrow in tonight's rush
I want to taste tonight in tomorrow's lunch
A pretty girl by my side never taught me much
It's trivial times and troublesome tales
I may have told but I'll never tell
I took the train lines, I traveled the rails
Always ended up tracing back my trails
These are the days, these are the nights
You can't escape so, why would you try?
These are the days, these are the nights
Undisguised and naked, that happiness is mine
Chimney fingered flicking ash in the wind
Flames burning out far from feeling anything
Because after city fathers found freedom in
My freedom and my crucifixion
The formula for failure was always at my door
With a female, a flask, and a fishing lure
Fingernail biting fearing for the floor
I want to be lost now as if I wasn't before
These are the days, these are the nights
You can't escape so, why would you try?
These are the days, these are the nights
Undisguised and naked, that happiness is mine
Reconvene like lovers unlucky in love
Like lunar loners liquored up
Like an obscene chain linked to the lion's tongue
Licking the wounds of the loveless ones
It's the leading roll leaving curtains called
Lying for laughs in the lending hall
Lovely and lost in lessons from God
I think I'm learning life but I am not
These are the days, these are the nights
You can't escape so, why would you try?
These are the days, these are the nights
Undisguised and naked, that happiness is mine
