"Painkillers" lyrics

The Strike Lyrics

"Painkillers"

I watch your friends
Table three
Drinkin' away their jealousy

I watch your brother
Tryin' to hide
A case of wandering eyes

As your daddy in the back is spending money that he don't have
And your cousin in the front spendin' time with another man

And they're begging for painkillers
So we play the songs from they were young so they won't remember
That they're begging for painkillers
Ah-Yeah
So we play the songs from when they were young and we try to remember
We're playin' the painkillers

Get on your feet
Let's start pretending
We'll be the soundtrack for the scene
Where reality
Plays the enemy
'Cause we're barely hangin' on to the dream

Cast fate as the love that we're fighting for
We have it all and can still use a little more

And they're begging for painkillers
So we play the songs from they were young so they won't remember
That they're begging for painkillers
Ah-Yeah
So we play the songs from they were young and we try to remember
We're playin' the painkillers

Wooh!

Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance

'Cause they're begging for painkillers
So we play the songs from they were young so they won't remember
That they're begging for painkillers
Ah-Yeah
So we play the songs from they were young and we try to remember
Let's all move to the painkillers

Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
Tonight we're gonna dance
Tonight we're gonna dance our pain away
