Story Behind the Song
Lyrics
With nitroglycerine dripping off our chins, and elbows sliding off the bar, we speak and breathe and charm our way under trains and between cars. I'm drinking whatever you're buying if you've got enough left to see it through. I say we soak ourselves to the bone. I'm not going home unless its with you. Kickstart the night and drown the world facedown in a loud song. Let's start a fire and let the scorned drink to things gone wrong. We wont appreciate these days until they're all gone. We never recognize whats right. So here's to things gone wrong. I need some kind of savior to pull me from this seat. From the people, from the smell, from the price, from the heat. From the way they purchase hope with their last of change. While they try to look different, but they're all the same. I got one more song left on the jukebox and then I'm all yours. I got two left feet, so tired of standing. Let's hit the door before we hit the floor. I'm not going anywhere where they know me, anytime, anymore. Sidestep all the misspent souls from high school I spent years learning to ignore. And the masses of throbbing kids in tight t-shirts packed into this bar, all praying for half an hour of romance, all half lucky they made it this far. So with a night two years in the making, and half a mind to run as fast as I can, amidst a life spent going crazy, come and save me from inside my head. With nitroglycerine dripping off our chins we make beautiful mistakes.
