weekend (reimagined)

You could drive your fast car through the village till you die

Or you could take another deep breath swingin'

For the days I could watch you run

Through the white-lighted streets where the houses stay the same

Where we could drink till we'd never remember our names

Oh, you could bring me to li-i-ife

You could bring me to li-ife

So we can hang our noose under stars bright, ready to glow

We can fall in love for the weekend

We're on the edge, baby

Two hearts starting to slow

We can fall in love for the weekend, oh

Ah, oh

Ah (How we fall), oh

Ah, oh

We can dream in white hot color, in ecstasy we'll fade

Into the silence of our dead night freezing

When the smoke cleared, I awoke here

Caught in the patterns of the mess that we've been making

We can play pretend till it gets dark

And count the seconds until everything falls apart

But you could bring me to li-i-ife

You could bring me to li-ife

So we can hang our noose under stars bright, ready to glow

We can fall in love for the weekend

We're on the edge, baby

Two hearts starting to slow

We can fall in love for the weekend, oh

Ah, oh, ah, oh

Ah, oh, ah, oh

Ah, oh, ah, oh

Ah, oh

Dancing on the edge and we're ready to go

We could fall in love for the weekend

Finger on the trigger of a shotgun, ready to blow

We could fall in love for the weekend

Give me one shot in my veins and I'll be ready to love

Could fall in love for the weekend

You know I'm trying too hard, but it isn't enough

We could fall in love for the weekend, oh

Ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh

So we can hang our noose under stars bright, ready to glow

We can fall in love for the weekend

We're on the edge, baby

Two hearts starting to slow

We can fall in love for the weekend, oh

New kids, waiting on the edge, and we're ready to go

We can fall in love for the weekend

We're on the edge, baby

Two hearts starting to slow

We can fall in love for the weekend, oh

Ah, oh, ah, oh

Ah, oh, ah, oh
