"Slide" lyrics

"Slide"

We were fading like the bottom of a bad dream
We would heading south, looking for a good time

Faces look so pretty in the spotlight
All blown out, and bathed inside a world of white

Sometimes I feel like I'm holding it together
Sometimes I feel like everything is fine
Sometimes I feel like I'm out of control
I feel like I'm fallin, like my life is on a slide

Slide
Slide
Slide
Slide
Slide

It was sunny on the streets
Down there by the water
We would get hammered on the beach
Right down by the water

She was slightly out of reach
A rich man's only daughter
I think she slept with me
Just so she could piss off her father

I am elastic
I am easy with the damage
I am ecstatic
I am hungry for the climb

Sometimes a feel like I'm fallin apart
I feel like I am falling, like my life is a slide

Slide
Slide
Slide
Slide

I know it's wrong, but I just can't seem to act my age
I know it's wrong, but I just can't seem control my rage

My heart is racing and I'm losing my mind
Sometimes I feel like my life is on a slide

Those faces look so scary in the harsh light
All blown out, and bathed inside a world of white

We were shinin like the good part of a bad time
We were laughin, happy just to be along for the ride

Sometimes I feel like I am really lucky
I have made it through, bruised and scarred and half alive

Sometimes I feel like I am out of control
I feel like I am fallin, like my life is on a slide

Yes I know it's wrong, but I just can't seem to act my age
Yes I know it's wrong, but I just can't seem control my rage

My heart is racin and I'm losing my mind
Sometimes I feel like my life is on a slide
