Slide

  • From the hot strobe lights and the spiked punch bliss
    And the long walks home in the dark we'll miss
    Nobody teaches you how to reminisce
    Nobody teaches you to hurt like this

    Then we slide into the arms of someone else
    Yeah, we slide into the arms of someone else

    No more coked up, broke, nocturnal kids
    Was that ever even us? Do we know what we missed?
    Nobody teaches you how to win big
    Nobody said there's no reverse on this

    Then we slide into the arms of someone else
    Yeah, we slide into the arms of someone else
    In disguise, we get a little better at controlling ourselves around midnight
    Then we slide into the arms of someone else

    Nobody wants to, nobody wants to
    Nobody wants to, nobody wants to
    Nobody wants to wake up alone

    Then we slide into the arms of someone else
    Then we slide into the arms of someone else
    In disguise, we get a little better at controlling ourselves around midnight
    But then we slide into the arms of some, someone else

    The weight of the world is love
    Under the burden of solitude, under the burden of dissatisfaction the weight
    The weight we carry is love
    And so must rest in the arms of love at last, must rest in the arms of love Writer/s: Allen Gainsberg, James Michael Bay, Jonathan Ian Green
