Lyrics

The Gaslight Anthem — The Backseat

In the back seats of burned out cars

In the disenchantment lane

The ideal angels twist and turn

And ask forgiveness for future mistakes

But you and I, we've been through this

Maybe a hundred times before

Always hitchin' rides with strangers

That papa warned us about before
