THE NEW VARSITY LYRICS

"Claremont's Finest"

She wears red on days when she feels all alone.
This self portrait, never fading cuz it's etched in stone.
She waits til the time is right before she goes.
The crowd is calling her to stay all night.

The clock strikes 12, but she don't feel a thing.
but a whisper. But she don't feel anything.

I know that you're looking for someone to save you, save you from this life before it breaks you.
And I'll drive the ambulance tonight.
We'll ride until we reach the shoreline (this town will bury you alive)
That view gets better from this highrise (moments like these can last a lifetime)
Just to find a way passed the city skyline. That dream awaits you on the other side.
Don't let the meaning of it slip away.

Autumn mornings are their coldest when she's not around.
Their paper hearts were torn in two and spread all on the ground.
Like leaves that fell off of the trees have lost their purpose,
She left them wondering, well what did they do to deserve it.

I know that you're looking for someone to save you, save you from this life before it breaks you.
And I'll drive the ambulance tonight.
We'll ride until we reach the shoreline (this town will bury you alive)
That view gets better from this highrise (moments like these can last a lifetime)
Just to find a way passed the city skyline. That dream awaits you on the other side.

I've given up this state of living with your choice to self destruct on purpose.

When the morning eventually arrives, is it normal to wake up and not know where you have been,
Soaked in a mixture of sweat and shame, from the bottle that you were given.
They're not your friends, they don't remember your name,
And that bed of roses from a stranger never meant anything.
To you, this is the only way that you would last. But that note on the door read "don't come back."

(I can save your life tonight)

Wake up! You've got our full attention. You've gotten in too deep.
These nights are only getting colder, well what did you want from me?
You've got the look, and I've got the time to give you what you need.
Those walls that you have built have fell, and I want you to know that

I can save your life tonight.
