Born from hippies in 1969 Bored by 1992 I Walked into a recruitment office they said Son we've been looking for you Discharged from the gulf war the very same year Came home with a carton or two Of cigarettes, mixtapes, and bullets from a gun My dead best friend never did use Oh Atlanta please need me Like I needed you Let your sweaty embrace open wide Cuz Atlanta I've fallen Like some people do And I need all your ground to survive (cuz Atlanta I'm smothered like Some people get And I need all your air to survive) Wasted, downtrodden, and lonely in vain I cried myself to sleep at the site Of the old shopping center where we used to ride Now condos as sterile as I I bought an old airstream for 3000 bucks From a drug dealer I used to owe I thought to myself as I slept off a high The irony's starting to show Oh Atlanta please need me Like I needed you Let your sweaty embrace open wide Cuz Atlanta I've fallen Like some people do And I need all your ground to survive (cuz Atlanta I'm smothered like Some people get And I need all your air to survive) I drove out to Asheville cuz that's where you were Where you married into money and pills And I wanted so bad to be good with you now But the fact is that you never Will Because some become lovers because of the sex Sometimes they just become friends In our case, I just became bad at it all And never got good at it again Oh Atlanta please need me Like I needed you Let your sweaty embrace open wide Cuz Atlanta I've fallen Like some people do And I need all your ground to survive (Cuz Atlanta I'm smothered like Some people get And I need all your air to survive) |
