lyrics

This scene is familiar; I think we’ve both been here before
These streets, they led us here again
It’s a place from which we ran, never to return but then
The devil we know is the one that gets us in the end

The story’s been written, we’ll just play our parts tonight
Bit players, we’ll both take our turn,
Won’t be no encore, anonymity is the best we can hope for
Raise your glass to the night and watch us burn.

Pretty darling won’t you drink with me tonight,
I know a place on the wrong side of town
And when we wake tomorrow, please shut out the light
Spotlight’s no friend of ours, so mama, pull them shades low down

I hear an old love song coming from an empty bar,
Yeah, I think it’s one we used to know
But I promise not to say nothing about yesterday
If we had a time, it was a long time ago
