the view from below - leather skin lyrics

[verse 1]
there’s a parking lot
full of teenagers naked in the backseat
in the dead of night
swallow your pride and take a taxi
there’s a backstage spot
where a hundred others crept along the floorboards
always worth a shot
even if i know you’ll just get bored

[chorus]
honey we’re running out of light
shut up, skip rocks here if you like
just no matter what you do
keep your switchblade out of sight
leather sticks to skin i’m stuck with you
leather sticks to skin i’m stuck with you

[verse 2]
there’s a faded scar
on your bottom lip
you can’t help but tell me
you’ll say that’s too far
we’ll both get swallowed by the river
there’s a silver noose
strangling until our flesh fuses together
i’ll cut myself loose
throw open the door and run forever
’cause you say it’s in the air
it’s in your blood just like the movies
well there ain’t nothin’ there
you’re unaware you’re nothin’ to me
[chorus]
honey we’re running out of light
shut up, skip rocks here if you like
just no matter what you do
keep your switchblade out of sight
red exchanges lips, how sweet of you
red exchanges lips, how sweet of you

[verse 3]
i crack the tile from the weight of my shame
you and i, we were never the same
i was just another piece in your game
but i shoulder all the blame

[outro]
but no matter what i do
i can’t stand to be with you
