Champagne for My Real Friends, Real Pain for My Sham Friends
You are a getaway car, a rush of blood to the head
But me, I'm just the covers on top of your bed
You steer in a rear view mirror, you make my head swim
But I'll keep you warm and won't ask you where you've been
With your backless black dress soaked to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scrambling
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
Such a shame
The sounds of this small town make my ears hurt
(Make my ears hurt)
(Oh yeah, you caught me)
But I caught you on worse, oh
They say, "You want a war? You've got a war"
But who are you fighting for?
Tides out, the ship's run aground, we drown
Traitors in shallow water
With your backless black dress soaked to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scrambling
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
Such a shame
Everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
Such a shame
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
But me, I'm just the covers on top of your bed
You steer in a rear view mirror, you make my head swim
But I'll keep you warm and won't ask you where you've been
With your backless black dress soaked to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scrambling
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
Such a shame
The sounds of this small town make my ears hurt
(Make my ears hurt)
(Oh yeah, you caught me)
But I caught you on worse, oh
They say, "You want a war? You've got a war"
But who are you fighting for?
Tides out, the ship's run aground, we drown
Traitors in shallow water
With your backless black dress soaked to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scrambling
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
Such a shame
Everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
Such a shame
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame
