The Metermaids - Blackout Baby lyrics

There's no picture going to do it any justice No Polaroid, 35 millimeter, or a digital snap Kodachrome won't capture the moment You can't own it. There's no bringing it back In fact, you can save on all your video tape It's not the same the way the shot crops the frame. This is not just stop drop and aim We're taking it from the front to the back Side to side. It's time to drive Time to ride. So climb inside But I'm alive. Say it. I'm alive And Imma live every day like it was my first Isn't Brooklyn pretty? The way she holds your fingers to the flames She's calling your name in the street but the street doesn't hear your name I don't want anybody to touch me I've gone where you can't go I've seen what you can't see I know what you don't know I've never been comfortable inside my skin But now that I'm inside I'm not going back again Blackout, baby There's no tomorrow Swear to god think I'm destroying something beautiful Pictures speak a thousand words and I've been speechless with a burning on my lips Eyes are open less than usual Done explaining, from now on I'm hoping they just get my drift Sometimes I wish this skin was mine, get in line, but I'm not into picking sides Some birds are just too big to fly Spin the bottle kiss the sky, it's live or die All or nothing, taste of blood, the hands are shaking, I'm just trying to chase the sun Now or never, a place to run, I'll pluck the strings, I'll f**ing sing, I'll make sh** up Isn't Brooklyn ugly How she holds your face in your mistakes Yeah, it's great and the pay's lovely Don't know what I have but there's nothing left that you can take from me I've seen what you don't believe in I was awake and you just slept I've walked to the place the streets end Smoke and fear on my breath I've been what I thought I should be I've ran through the city at night I didn't look back once I lived what I thought was life now Blackout baby No Tomorrow There's no Tomorrow I hear the music clearly, I taste the nicotene I feel the buildings close in, I see the city scream I hear you talk about me, I see your finger shake I know the pain inside you, I hear the gla**es break I don't regret a second, there's honey in my veins If there was no tomorrow, I'd keep it all the same Please don't mistake my smile, cause this is not for you This is not a place you've been, this is not what you thought you knew
