Back Road to the Old Us

[Verse 1] We was out on the back road Late night Same code Same crew Smoke in the hatchback Glass in the backpack Flashed blue lights We flew Dirty little rave in the warehouse Cash in the sock That stain Jawside grinding Eyes all shining Sin on tap like rain [Chorus] That place where we used to go Dark in my chest like coal Thought we was kings on the low Really just chained to the glow That place where we used to hide Running from truth From light I don't wanna see that side Jesus pulled me from that night (from that night) [Verse 2] Muggy little pub in the high street Shots on the bar That poison Man talk big with a clenched fist Heart all small No choice then Back alley deals by the chip shop Brown in the palm Cold grin Mask on face But the mask fell off Every man drowning in sin [Chorus] That place where we used to go Dark in my chest like coal Thought we was kings on the low Really just chained to the glow That place where we used to hide Running from truth From light I don't wanna see that side Jesus pulled me from that night (from that night) [Bridge] I see that road when I close my eyes Still hear the lies in the bassline But the grave got robbed Now I won't go back Let the old me die in the past life (hey!) I got blood on my name He washed it Whole gang bound for the casket Now we stand in the light Same postcode New heart Same block He backed it [Chorus] That place where we used to go Dark in my chest like coal Thought we was kings on the low Really just chained to the glow That place where we used to hide Running from truth From light I don't wanna see that side Jesus pulled me from that night (from that night)
