Double Red 69

I panic
And I wish I'd look
Like no other
I aim for the flames and the gutter
I feel like a man
When there's no one around

I drew a new life
I have to be a victim
And a martyr

I bite like a dog
When there's nowhere to hide

I try
To lose control
And to shake this feeling

When the moon looks bright
The angst comes back
Couples keep cheating
And the pain ain't right

Fools feel fine
Drunks drink wine
You and I just hold onto
The Double Red 69

You fear
And you cry
But you try
Like no other
Deep down you know
The question and the answer
You fill out the blanks
When there's no one around

You hold it tight
Then burst like fire
You shut down the lights
Cut the wire

You bite like a dog
When there's nowhere to hide

You try
To lose control
And to shake this feeling

When the moon looks bright
The angst comes back
Couples keep cheating
And the pain ain't right

Fools feel fine
Drunks drink wine
You and I just hold onto
The Double Red 69

We better look down
On shams and liars
Burn down the church of rulers

We have our own truth
And somewhere to hide

We'll take what's needed in the land of deserters
A compass and a pair of plyers

I'll fix up your heart
And you'll naviguate mine

We'll try
To lose control
And to shake this feeling

When the moon looks bright
The angst comes back
Couples keep cheating
And the pain ain't right

Fools feel fine
Drunks drink wine
You and I just hold onto
The Double Red 69
