Bug Lyrics

In the back of the van after a show, when we know we shouldn't be there at all.
Friends are calling you and your boyfriend's waiting for you at home.

We must have a deathwish, can you remember what I said,
So the lights are off and we're alone again.
I'm not a boy that you'll forget, I'll make sure of it,
Right now I think I'm better off alone without you.

Here's the thing, when I'm home you're off on tour, lord knows that I'd like to see you more,
But flights aren't cheap so a girlfriend in a US band I just can't afford.

I’m not sure if I’d like to hug, kiss or fight you.
Being lead on was such a turn off.

We must have a deathwish, can you remember what I said,
So the lights are off and we're alone again.
I'm not a boy that you'll forget, I'll make sure of it,
Right now I think I'm better off alone without you.

Cover art for Bug lyrics by Lower Than Atlantis

It's pretty obvious what it's about from the lyrics, but Mike's said that it's about this girl in a band LTA were on tour with who he kept hooking up with who had a boyfriend back home and apparently lead him along.

Not really relevant to the understanding of the song but I'm pretty sure the girl who he's singing about is the bassist for Eyes Set To Kill. Could be wrong though.
