Aurora Avenue by Rose Windows Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every time I'll wake up in another city
I get the feeling that I'm nobody at all
It's that feeling - keeps me driving
Keeps me moving, keeps me on my toes
That feeling keeps me writing on the wall
[Verse 2]
I'm walking down the street and it's no love song
I'm pushing what I can to get my fill
Till there's nothing left here to believe in
I can't keep myself from stealing
Killing time until there is none left to kill
[Chorus]
Goddamn woman
Gotta fight to turn my lonesome eyes away
Goddamn woman
Everybody needs a hand to hold these days
[Verse 3]
Aw man, I ain't buying what you're selling
And aw man, I won't swallow what you've cooked
Like I'm just some insect on the street
Eyes wide open but asleep
Another penny in the wishing well for crooks
[Verse 4]
I can smell it on you now, don't keep me waiting
Oh, the scent of it is stronger than my will
Well, you're full of sh*t and I am too
Let's find something to abuse
Need you to keep me off Aurora Avenue
Need you to keep me off Aurora Avenue
[Chorus]
Goddamn woman
Gotta fight to turn my bloodshot eyes away
Goddamn woman
Every lonesome traveler needs a place to stay
Every time I'll wake up in another city
I get the feeling that I'm nobody at all
It's that feeling - keeps me driving
Keeps me moving, keeps me on my toes
That feeling keeps me writing on the wall
[Verse 2]
I'm walking down the street and it's no love song
I'm pushing what I can to get my fill
Till there's nothing left here to believe in
I can't keep myself from stealing
Killing time until there is none left to kill
[Chorus]
Goddamn woman
Gotta fight to turn my lonesome eyes away
Goddamn woman
Everybody needs a hand to hold these days
[Verse 3]
Aw man, I ain't buying what you're selling
And aw man, I won't swallow what you've cooked
Like I'm just some insect on the street
Eyes wide open but asleep
Another penny in the wishing well for crooks
[Verse 4]
I can smell it on you now, don't keep me waiting
Oh, the scent of it is stronger than my will
Well, you're full of sh*t and I am too
Let's find something to abuse
Need you to keep me off Aurora Avenue
Need you to keep me off Aurora Avenue
[Chorus]
Goddamn woman
Gotta fight to turn my bloodshot eyes away
Goddamn woman
Every lonesome traveler needs a place to stay
