Spraypaint and Alleyways

We were out shoplifting, waiting for the drugs to kick in
'Cause all that apartment ever gave me was lice
So I watch it break a little more every night

We were out hitchhiking, waiting for something to happen
'Cause I'm walking the last time to the end of my street
And I'll miss it 'cause I always hated purity

And I've been huffin' spray-paint lately around the corner in the alley
Sometimes dead brain cells are means for surviving
And toxins can be memories

So I think of the good times and the bad times
So I drink until I can leave all the rest behind

We were six months in just waitin' on a handle of gin
'Cause we lost the calendar so long before
So we count the days by the bottles on the floor

We had heads full of acid, waiting for something to happen
'Cause the landlords right below our feet and he can't sleep
So we're lucky to have lasted a week

And I haven't been sleeping lately around the corner in the alley
Sometimes you can't just blame the crank
And sometimes you're sleeping on broken glass

So I think of the good times and the bad times
So I drink until I can leave all the rest behind
