Alibis

Let me tell you straight
Look into my eyes
You know what I'll say

A burning at both ends
Candles in the night
I ain't got no shame

Now tell me where else would you go
In the morning we can fight
In the shadows of ourselves
A job is just a job
Stay a little while

Leave but I know that you want it
Cause so am I
I know the morning is calling
For alibis
Let them that be your covering
From time to time
Leave but I know that you want it
Cause so am I

Oh if we could be on and on we said
And never turn it off
When the spirit it moves me into you
Let's see what we got
Show yourself the way I wanna see
It's feeling like a crime
Lock me up for good
Throw away the key
I'll do the time

Just let it go
And stay a little while
No one will know
What's on our minds
Just let it go
And stay a little while
Just let it go

And leave but I know that you want it
Cause so am I
I know the morning is calling
For alibis
Let them that be your covering
From time to time
Leave but I know that you want it
Cause so am I

Leave but I know that you want it
Cause so am I
I know the morning is calling
For alibis
Let them that be your covering
From time to time
Leave but I know that you want it
Cause so am I
