Butch Walker - Atl lyrics

Your rating:

Born from hippies back in '69 

I was bored by 1992 

I walked into a recruitment office a year before that 

Said 'son we've been waiting for you' 

Discharged from a Gulf War the very same year 

I came home with a car and a tomb 

Of cigarettes and mixtapes and bullets from a gun 

That my dead best friend never could use 



Oh Atlanta, please need me like I needed you 

Let your sweaty embrace open wide 

'Cause Atlanta, I'm falling like most people do 

And I need all your ground to survive 



Wasted and down trodden along the hidden vein 

I cried myself blind at the sight 

Of the old shopping center where we used to ride 

Now condos as sterile as I 

So I bought me an old Airstream for 3,000 bucks 

From a drug dealer I used to owe 

And I thought to myself as I slept off a high 

The irony is starting to show 



Oh Atlanta, please need me like I needed you 

Let your sweaty embrace open wide 

'Cause Atlanta, I'm falling like some people do 

And I need all your ground to survive 



Drove out to Asheville, 'cause that's where you were 

Where you married into money and pills 

And I wanted so bad to be good with you now 

But the fact is that you never will 

Cause some become lovers because of sex 

And some, you know, they just become friends 

Heyyyy 

In our case, we just became bad at it all 

And never got good at it again 



Oh Atlanta, please need me like I needed you 

Let your sweaty embrace open wide 

'Cause Atlanta, I'm suffocating like some people do 

And I need all your air to survive
