Faced with the thrill of the hunt or the kill
You’d think I’d rather run, and let my feet chase a fading buzz
But you by my side, driving fifty miles and miles
We hit the ground jogging and the radio was giving us fuzz
The way they put their hands on me, I still said no oh what was I thinking
To live a life so lonely, oh who was it all for?
It would be you all along
School could have been one big lesson of how to fit in
I hit myself with Pavement and my back was up against the wall
And what did it get me for a while?
A pack a day habit and a salvation style
I was rethinking my decisions that lead me to the dilettantes’ ball
A shitty bar on Bowery, we talked all night I must have been drinking
We spoke of Bruce and denim jeans, that’s when it dawned on me
It would be you all along
Be you all along
You know you're no friend of mine, you're more like my halo
