Champagne for My Real Friends, Real Pain for My Sham Friends Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You are a getaway car, a rush of blood to the head
But me, I'm just the covers on top of your bed
You steer away in a rear view mirror, make my head swim
I keep you warm and won't ask you where you've been

[Pre-Chorus]
With your backless black dress soaked to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scramblin'
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units

[Chorus]
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames but it's such a shame, such a shame

[Verse 2]
The sounds of this small town make my ears hurt (make my ears hurt)
"Oh yeah, you caught me!" But I caught you one worse, oh
They say, "You want a war? You've got a war!" But who are you fighting for?
The tide's out, the ship's run aground, we drown traitors in shallow water

[Pre-Chorus]
With your backless black dress soaked to the skin
When it's said and done, they're all scrambling
And we're friends, we're friends
Just because we move units

[Chorus]
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames but it's such a shame, such a shame

[Bridge]
Everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames but it's such a shame, such a shame

[Chorus]
Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames
We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame
At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining
Everyone deserves the flames but it's such a shame
