Straight, No Chaser Lyrics

Straight no chaser

 

We don't waste our time on fakeness

 

One glass one shot is all it takes us

 

Better this than fade away

 

So our story goes this empty city

Crowded skies are clearing but I'm lonesome

No Bring on the night

 

There's work a plenty

Fluorescent lamps are passing in slow motion

Only I will wander

 

Only I can leave

Straight no chaser

 

We don't waste our time on fakeness

 

One glass one shot is all it takes us

 

Better this than fade away

So we set the scene a sea of faces

Laser eyes are watching as we close in

Don't play innocent

 

I know your thinking

 

You're chasing conversation out of focus

 

Only I will wander

 

Only I can leave

 

Straight no chaser

 

We don't waste our time on fakeness

 

One glass one shot is all it takes us

 

Better this than fade away

 

Straight no chaser

 

We don't waste our time on fakeness

 

One glass one shot is all it takes us

 

Better this than fade away

 

Fade away

 

Fade away

 

 

Fade away
