Jesse Malin - Addicted lyrics

I've been running from the outskirts Got some money on the wrong horse I just had no where else to go Now they're closing down the book store And they're putting up a condo We're gonna watch this whole thing blow And I've lived here all my life I'm addicted to the sadness And the sound of jubilation We never got to say goodbye Well they wanted his apartment And they tried to steal his paintings They were counting up the days until he died And the band played on and on And the band played on and on And the band played all the sadness of my youth I'm addicted to hand jive I've been living on the down stroke Almost gone and almost grown I've been feeling like a ba*tard In the beauty of the moment So alive and so alone And the band played on and on And the band played on and on And the band played all the sadness of my youth I'm addicted to the glory Of a broken heart Now they got you in the camera And you're feeling like a target Another picture in a million dollar phone I'm addicted to the moment I will not be reconstructed I'm gonna watch this whole thing blow And the band played on and on And the band played on and on And the band played all the sadness of my youth And the band played on and on And the band played all the sadness of my youth And I've lived here all my life
