The Gaslight Anthem - Teenage Rebellion lyrics

[The Gaslight Anthem - Teenage Rebellion lyrics]

And in the first year of my former life
I was seventeen and a wildfire burning
If I stretched out my hands I
Was convinced I could conjure angels
And yeah I was pretty
Sure she was bulletproof
At least I never saw anybody ever get to you
You used to wonder all the
Time if you made it to the point of a ritual
To the point of a ritual

And I used to die every night
All in your honor
In your honor, oh in your honor
While you were gone while you were gone

And in the last hours before the sunrise
I’m not sure if I passed
Out or closed my eyes
I woke into a dream where I know I knew
Somebody had just got their claws in you


And your breath heaves in silent anythings
Like a sub-conscious ritual

And I used to die every night
All in your honor
In your honor, oh in your honor
While you were gone while you were gone

And if you’re gonna break my heart
It might as well be tonight
And if you’re gonna break my heart
It might as well be tonight

I used to die every sweet, sweet night
All in your honor
And I used to die every night
All in your honor
In your honor, oh in your honor
While you were gone while you were gone
All in the throes of rebellion
In the throes of rebellion
In the throes of rebellion
