You were standing with your girlfriends in the street Falling back on forever, I wonder what you came to be I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes I never was a quitter, oblivious to schoolgirls' lies When I look back on those neon lights The leather seats, the passage rite I feel the heat, I see the light Miss Atomic Bomb Making out, we've got the radio on You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Racing shadows under moonlight Through the desert on a hot night And for a second there we'd won Yeah, we were innocent and young Cast out of the night, well you've got a foolish heart So you took your place but the fall from grace was the hardest part It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black You should have seen your little face, burnin' for love Holdin' on for your life All that I wanted was a little touch, A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much, no Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time Miss Atomic Bomb Making out we've got the radio on You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Racing shadows under moonlight We're taking chances on a hot night And for a second there we'd won Yeah we were innocent and young The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear Miss Atomic Bomb, I'm standing here Sweat on my skin And this love that I've cradled Is wearing thin (Miss Atomic Bomb) But I'm standing here and you're too late Your shock-wave whisper has sealed your fate It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back (it's a proving ground) You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack (and you turn it to chance) Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black (on a loser's game) You should have seen your little face, burning for love, (Miss Atomic Bomb) Holdin' on for your life But you can't survive (All that I wanted was a little touch) When you want it all (A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much) There's another side (Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time)
Ok, ex-English teacher here & I can't help this .... A 'Prequel' is the part of a story from BEFORE when it took place - this is set AFTER Mr Brightside - looking back at that time. So it's a 'Sequel' not a prequel :).
