Songs for Teenagers Songtext

von The Gaslight Anthem

Looking for love in all the wrong places,
Wanted to be famous but ended up in Naples.
Love is not the answer, I'm in love with this stuff.
I spent every last dime in the backseat of a stranger's truck.

It's okay, I'm all right.
I'll be okay.

First time It felt like I was gonna die,
But I've gotten pretty good at telling myself it's fine.
Anna talks me down and gives me sips from her beer,
Head pounding reveille, how did I get here?

It's all right. I'll be okay.
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall.
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up, just to let each other down.

I was looking for drugs in all the wrong places,
Felt like a change coming but I couldn't face it.
I tried to keep my cool when I finally made it home,
I had a blood shot excuse for every lie I ever told.

It's all right. It's okay. I'm all right. I'll be okay.
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall.
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up, just to let each other down.

Last night is all a blur to me,
I don't remember anything,
But I vaguely recall waking up alone.

I'm always alone.

It's all right. It's okay. Baby, I'm all right. And I'll be okay.
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall.
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up just to let each other down.
Let it go, let it go, all the way down, 'til there's nowhere left to fall.
It's a shame, all the ways we build ourselves up just to let each other down.
