Jake Scott
Late Night Alibi
[Verse 1]
I am so unwell
I am not myself
I don't want to fall asleep
Because you're gonna leave
You've got me paralyzed
I try to close my eyes
And count it back from ten
So I can breathe again

[Pre-Chorus]
We always do this, rewriting the same script
We lie together, but the truth is that

[Chorus]
We're on the darker side
I-ee-i, i-ee-i
I'm just your late night alibi
I-ee-i, i-ee-i
Oh, I know I should stop, I should tell you off
But you always give me just enough
To make me want to let you waste my life
It happens only evеry time

[Verse 2]
It's not if, it's when
We know that this will еnd
I'm waiting for the day
That I don't wanna play
And maybe I can't see
It's toxicity
That keeps me in this bed
Hanging by a thread
[Pre-Chorus]
We always do this even though it's useless
We lie together, but the truth is that

[Chorus]
We're on the darker side
I-ee-i, i-ee-i
I'm just your late night alibi
I-ee-i, i-ee-i
Oh, I know I should stop, I should tell you off
But you always give me just enough
To make me want to let you waste my life
It happens only every time

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh (It happens only every time)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh

[Bridge]
I let you waste my life
I let you waste my life

[Chorus]
'Cause we're on the darker side
I-ee-i, i-ee-i
I'm just your late night alibi
I-ee-i, i-ee-i
Oh, I know I should stop, I should tell you off
But you always give me just enough
To make me want to let you waste my life
It happens only every time
