Never really been alive before
Always lived in my head
And sometimes it was easier
Hungover and half dead
Back in town, why don't we go out
Let the rats spin around our feet
The full moon shines down
On these dirty streets
Back in town, why don't we go out
To that Ninth Street diner
And carry own slowly torturing each other
'Cause it's always the same
I came for the pleasure, but I stayed
Yes, I stayed for the pain
It's lit up like a movie scene
That halogen glow
And if you get spat on
That's just your big city baptism
You're the star of the show
Back in town, why don't we go out
And never go to sleep
To all our dreams, I'll let them
Pile up on the streets
I thought that I was here with you
But it was always just that empty room
'Cause it's always the same
I came for the pleasure, but I stayed
Yes, I stayed for the pain
