THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM
"Songs For Teenagers"

Looking for love in all the wrong places
Wanted to be famous but ended up in Naples
Love is not the answer, I'm in love with this stuff
I spent every last dime in the backseat of a stranger's truck

It's okay, I'm all right
I'll be okay

First time It felt like I was gonna die
But I've gotten pretty good at telling myself it's fine
Anna talks me down and gives me sips from her beer
Head pounding reveille, how did I get here?

It's all right. I'll be okay
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up, just to let each other down

I was looking for drugs in all the wrong places
Felt like a change coming but I couldn't face it
I tried to keep my cool when I finally made it home
I had a blood shot excuse for every lie I ever told

It's all right. It's okay. I'm all right. I'll be okay
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up, just to let each other down

Last night is all a blur to me
I don't remember anything
But I vaguely recall waking up alone

I'm always alone

It's all right. It's okay. Baby, I'm all right. And I'll be okay
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up just to let each other down
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up just to let each other down
