Against the World

I'll commandeer your heart, with everything I have left
Recreate a movie scene, with that last cigarette
Owned an 89' Buick Century
You owned the blood in my veins, you were cooler than me
Your southern drawl rolled off your tongue
As we rolled around in the backseat

You've got something that I want to use
Against the world

Treat me like that Springsteen record
You play over and over again
Even though you know damn well
"Thunder Road" always skips a minute in
But babe we're dreaming, ain't that what life is for
When I hold you, you hold me tighter
It keeps me begging for more

You've got something that I want to use
Against the world

I hate who I was a year ago
But everyone hates my new clothes
I sell myself short just to pay the rent
It's not my fault I can't relate to jazz standards of yesterday
But like you said, I'm good at something

I just wish I knew if I was alive

Your mouth on mine
Lost in time
Am I right

You've got something that I want to use
Against the world
