lyrics

Chorus:
You’re like alcohol
You make me feel good
while I’m doing wrong
and I know that I should
try to be strong
I keep taking you in
You keep messing me up
You’re like alcohol

Verse 1:
Ever since the day we started hanging
People look at me like I’m not the same
Everyone’s always got something to say
And everyone knows that I hate head games
Can’t they see that you’re now a part of me
Why won’t they just let me live my life
Everyone saw me suck you up you’re like alcohol

Chorus:
You’re like alcohol
You make me feel good
while I’m doing wrong
and I know that I should
try to be strong
I keep taking you in
You keep messing me up
You’re like alcohol

Verse 2:
Ever since the first pickup line you used
I’ve been helplessly devoted to you
Everyone saw the shit that I fell for
While I got in trouble you hid behind doors
But I just kept coming back to you
Not really wanting to
Everyone saw me suck your stories up you’re like alcohol

Chorus:
You’re like alcohol
You make me feel good
while I’m doing wrong
and I know that I should
try to be strong
I keep taking you in
You keep messing me up
You’re like alcohol

Bridge:
Yo no one ever gave him a chance to speak openly
He got so mad it seemed that he gave up so easily
He was this little white boy with no joy and no feelings
This boy with his dealings; a toy for the appealing
He was always shot down by the punks with no remorse
It’s tough to be off course when you’re stuck outside with closed doors
Everywhere he went, even the people he knew
they never stopped to help him or ask what he’d been through
You couldn’t come up a good enough excuse.
He wouldn’t forgive you
He never believed you
He didn’t even trust you
He hated you. Fuck you
All he ever wanted in his life was love from you
when the situation wasn’t right, and now he’s above you
so how’s it feel to look up to the one you threw mud to
I’d go on with your life, you dumbass, if I was you
'Cause I really hope you know you’re so not cool

Chorus:
You’re like alcohol
You make me feel good
while I’m doing wrong
and I know that I should
try to be strong
I keep taking you in
You keep messing me up
You’re like alcohol

Who doesn't enjoy an interesting indie artist? Am I good, am I bad? Who knows. Guess we'll all have to wait and see. Yes, "we" 'cause not even I know myself anymore. I think that really comes out in the tunes though. Who knows, perhaps it may be you who can help solve a mystery? Yeah, I like a lot of retro television :D But I'll be there for you, if you're there for me too! Ha ... more
