Side Streets from SOUR GRAPES by Aaron Schroeder

05 Side Streets

Behind a new life
I don’t wanna fight
A wound in the name of love is still a wound

My head is all disorganized longing
Caught up because
We needed a crime to justify our shame

All the time
I tried to make it good

I remember when we met
Million things between us
I’m not virtuous
I’m not anything
We moved the bed below the window the watch the storm

Underwater, go softer
It’s wrong but you are not
Walking through dead valleys, purple skies
I try to remind myself everyone here is just

Climbing out and living on side streets
Climbing up and l iving on side streets

What happened to you?
What happened to us?
If you’re guilty, I’m done for

A new slice of jail
Seems you have as well
Don’t live in our home anymore

Those normal nights
Nothing hurts like the truth
Off and inside

What’s been sacrificed

I remember when we met
Million things between us
I’m not virtuous
I’m not anything
We moved the bed below the window the watch the storm

Underwater, go softer
It’s wrong but you are not
Walking through dead valleys, purple skies
I try to remind myself everyone here is

Climbing out and living on side streets
Climbing up and living on side streets

On side streets
From side streets

You don’t live in my home anymore
We’re closest to each other when we’re furthest away

You don’t live in our home anymore
We all pretended not to notice how much you’ve changed

You don’t live in our home anymore
You don’t tell me anything and I think that I like it that way
