The Strokes | Lyrics | Alone, Together

No choice now, it's too late
Let him go, he gave up, don't give up
Lisa said, "Take time for me"?
Dropping him down to his knees , oh just go

Take me away, see I've got to explain
Things they are changing such a permanent way
Life seems unreal, can we go back to your place?
Ah, you drink too much, makes me drink just the same

People try, felt so right
Giving themselves good advice
Looking down sometimes felt nice

He knows it's just a fact to kill to survive
He's earning dollars when you're giving your life
Let someone poor soul work 3 hours a day
The world is over and I don't care 'cause

I am with you, now I've got to explain
Things they are changing such a permanent way
Life seems unreal, can we go back to your place?
You drink too much, makes me drink just the same, oh

On the first time that I met your friends
A second time I thought it would last
We all like it a little different
