Alexander Lyrics by Avery Mandeville

Happy Birthday, Avery Jane

2018

[Verse 1]
Alexander bangs his head against the wall
When I left him there, I left him after all
Come down to the dock, take the needle out your arm
You know you're the only one could ever do you harm
[Chorus]
I can't save you
I'm a stranger from the sea
You find North Caroline
In everyone you meet
Can I get a witness to this
Self-destructive scene
Turn away from Alex 'cause
He's sleepin' on the street
[Verse 2]
Call your father, let him know that you're alive
I gave you payphone change and a reason to stay inside
Never had the love that we had all our lives
And when the water comes he's swimming to survive
[Chorus]
I can't save you
I'm a stranger from the sea
You find North Caroline
In everyone you meet
Can I get a witness to this
Self-destructive scene
Turn away from Alex 'cause
He's sleepin' on the street
[Chorus]
I can't save you
I'm a stranger from the sea
You find North Caroline
In everyone you meet
Can I get a witness to this
Self-destructive scene
Turn away from Alex 'cause
He's sleepin' on the street
