The Twang - Slippin' and Slidin' (Demo) Lyrics

Put your faith in a new day
Lock up the old one run away
We all know that the slate looks better clean
Play under a blue sky
You love the sun and so do I
It's the greatest thing we never see

Take a drive in the countryside
Taking corners side to side
I wish today of all days wouldn't end
Make a scene in your local bar
Drink too much and then drive your car
As long as you know it's not for pretend

Cause you're slippin' and slidin'
You spend your time messing around
When you should be deciding
You're stuck in a team with backwards people
Trying to hide but they just won't keep still
Life's unfair and it's better off that you know

I'll make an effort if you want me to
I'll sell a dream to me and you
But the price we see is not the price we'll pay
You make me laugh but I can see
You're touched by misery and I want to try and make it go away

Its like living in a fuckin' zoo
Clear the way I'm coming through
Don't you know the train leaves today
Is it too much to force a smile
It would make it all worthwhile
If I didn't mean it I wouldn't even say

Cause you're slippin' and slidin'
You spend your time messing around
When you should be deciding
You're stuck in a team with backwards people
Trying to hide but they just won't keep still
Life's unfair and it's better off that you know

I've been trying to find you
I've been trying to save you
I've been trying to stop your unusual behaviour
I'll let go, now I'll let go

I was hoping it was just a phase
And in the morning you might have changed
But when you fuckin' woke you went to the mirror
And saw the same bloke
You don't want to let go
You don't want to let go
