Hold it against my spine

Intro

(Hold it up)

Against my spine

Verse 1

Porch light swinging in the wind-chilled glass

Bottles stacked like sentinels where we've passed

Your hand on mine through the mosquito netting

You said this is all we need, no pretending

Chorus

Hold it up against the windowpane

(Against my spine)

Hold it up and let the sunset stain

Every broken bottle in this line of frame

We'll keep drinking till the whole town's on fire again

(Against my spine)

Verse 2

Engine roaring, gravel flying wide

You laugh through your teeth with a look that won't subside

A map of scars across the collarbone

Each one telling a story you still get to own

Chorus

Hold it up against the windowpane

(Against my spine)

Hold it up and let the sunset stain

Every broken bottle in this line of frame

We'll keep drinking till the whole town's on fire again

(Against my spine)

Bridge

Maybe I don't need to save the night at all

Just hold the whiskey, watch you shake your head

The whole world can burn if it means we've got this instead

So let it burn and let me see the red in your eyes

(Let it burn)

Chorus

Hold it up against the windowpane

(Against my spine)

Hold it up and let the sunset stain

Every broken bottle in this line of frame

We'll keep drinking till the whole town's on fire again

(Against my spine)
