This is my first time posting in here, but I love songwriting. Okay here goes nothing
"Motels and Drugs"
[Verse 1]
Burn my lungs and dry my throat
Steal my soul and leave a note
I'll let them know I'm doing fine
They'll never know it's all a lie
And when the sun goes down today
I'll be another selfish runaway
With truck stop benches taking me in
And a long road to nowhere, full of sin
[Chorus]
Take my hand and we'll march into the land
Of motels and drugs
The only place safer than what we had before
It's time we leave and break down the door
Say goodbye to your former life
And quickly find your way out of sight
Take my hand and we'll march into the land
Of motels and drugs
Those motels and drugs
[Verse 2]
In the valley, death comes quick
Acid rain and cocaine spit
Lines these streets like dirty gold
A place to revel and call our own
We're giving blowjobs out for rides
And taking up all of our time
While we wait for the next day
The selfish little runaways
[Chorus]
Take my hand and we'll march into the land
Of motels and drugs
The only place safer than what we had before
It's time we leave and break down the door
Say goodbye to your former life
And quickly find your way out of sight
Take my hand and we'll march into the land
Of motels and drugs
Those motels and drugs
[Bridge]
Don't cry, soon you will get used to it
I smile in the bed with my cigarette lit
It's time to take off again, I wish we could stay
But that's the mantra of a selfish runaway
[Chorus]
Take my hand and we'll march into the land
Of motels and drugs
The only place safer than what we had before
It's time we leave and break down the door
Say goodbye to your former life
And quickly find your way out of sight
Take my hand and we'll march into the land
Of motels and drugs
Those motels and drugs
