divide - next next next day mix

from Beacon by David

/

lyrics

v1:
broken bottles sitting by the bay
5am, time to start the day
got lost again, you wandering away,
no say, guess you're trying to make a way
through the seething view
hope to see you soon
allay the blues, you often seem to choose
the alleyways, the closet, or the back
over open streets, why do you do that like
are you in, is it superficial?
so, why are you going official with
the other one, the one you take to shows
no me, the one you take the clothes off
every night and every day
ok, wasn't even every day
offnight, am i that one?
the offnight backstreet
the offnight backstreet
the offnight ...
offnight

chorus:
don't even think we're gonna make it to the end of the night
divide

v2:
meet again i can smell the other day
other lay, wear his shirt so he can say
that he did you well, kiss and tell, make it swell -- well

for a fact I know two can play that game
lost faith, no shame I'll compete for it
throw you down, make a show -- it's a stage
you moan so my pride don't take a hit

all alone when this play has reached its end
solitude, don't pretend to understand
hollow joy leaves a lone husk of a man as the
woman goes on back to her man

desperate enough for a thrill
all cash, no card know the deal
red light, no light -- the night is clear
you and I both know why I'm here but
