The Gaslight Anthem – Spider Bites Lyrics

Spider Bites Lyrics by The Gaslight Anthem

My teeth are crumbling structures.
My thoughts are spider bites.
I woke up and thought that I was dreaming,
That we had reached the end of time.

And maybe you’re a goner,
Oh and maybe I survived.
But I don’t really believe it’ll end like that,
I’m sure I’ll be the first to die.
I’m sure I’ll be the first to die.

Til then we struggle for each other.
Til then we struggle for each other.
And on and on and on and on it goes,
We circle round the sun until someday we won’t.
And on and on and on it goes,
And I’ll love you forever til the day that I don’t.

When we were young the world seemed open,
And every face we saw was a smile.
Somewhere along all the masks came down,
And their faces were something unkind.

And I don’t know when this will be over.
I’m not sure we come back now.
It’s like this world was bitten by its own kind of venom,
And it’s gone too deep to suck the poison out.
I don’t know if it’s true, but it feels like it is now.
