Gaslight Anthem (The Song Not the Band)

The common ground That's where I plant my shoes Here I thought I was next to you A stubborn town My mouth opens and closes Spit on my tongue while my pride decomposes And you just stare And you just stare And you just stare And you just Squint my eyes It's hard to see Beneath my skin It's haunting me I feel my past Just swelling out The change I made Just won't add up It's no surprise I'm demonized A different town That's where I had to move Had to go to get away from you But I was bound My words turn into poison Flipped on your tongue to convey disappointment But I was there I won't just let it go And life's not fair That lesson's hard, I know Squint my eyes It's hard to see What I thought I said It's haunting me I feel my past Just swelling out You just can't buy Your way through love It's no surprise I'm demonized
