One soft infested summerMe and Terry became
friendsTrying in vain to breathe The fire we was
born inCatching rides to the outskirts Tying faith
between out teethSleeping in that old abandoned
beach house Getting wasted in the heatAnd hiding
on the backstreetsHiding on the backstreets With a
love so hard and filled with defeat Running for
our lives at night on them backstreetsSlow dancing
in the dark On the beach at Stockton's WingWhere
desperate lovers park We sat with the last of the

seemedYou could hear the whole damn city crying
Blame it on the lies that killed usBlame it on the

here in the dark You're like an angel on my
chestJust another tramp of hearts Crying tears of
faithlessnessRemember all the movies TerryWe'd go
see Trying to learn how to walk like the heroesWe
thought we had to be And after all this timeTo
find we're just like all the restStranded in the
park And forced to confessTo hiding on the
backstreetsHiding on the backstreets We swore
forever friendsOn the backstreets until the end
Hiding on the backstreetsHiding on the backstreets
