Teenage Rebellion Lyrics - The Gaslight Anthem

And in the first year of my former life 

I was 17 and in wildfire burning 

If I stretched out my hands 

I was convinced I could conjure angels 

And yeah, I was pretty sure she was bulletproof 

At least I never saw anybody ever get to you 

I used to wonder all the time if you made it out 

To the point of ritual 

To the point of a ritual 

And I used to die every night 

All in your honor, in your honor 

All in your honor 

While you were gone, while you were gone 

And in the last hours before sunrise 

I'm not sure if I passed out or closed my eyes 

I woke into a dream where I know I knew 

Somebody had just got their claws in you 

And your breath heaves in silenced anythings 

Like a subconscious ritual 

Yeah, yeah 

And I used to die, every night 

All in your honor, in your honor 

All in your honor 

While you were gone, whie you were gone 

You're gonna break my heart 

Might as well be tonite 

You're gonna break my heart 

Might as well be tonite 

I used to die every sweet, sweet night 

All in your honor 

And I used to die every night 

All in your honor, in your honor 

All in your honor 

While you were gone, while you gone 

In the throes of rebellion 

In the throes of rebellion 

In the throes of rebellion
