lyrics

The air talks in code in the corner pockets of this dead lane
Where the sinners sleep above the soon-to-be once-were saints
And as the sun streaks the sky at the dawn of the crimson twilight
Casings dance along the sand in the iris of a car’s brake lights

You, you never said the words
Or maybe I just misheard
The bonds they were bound to break
The weight is a lot to take
A singer from in the dark
A fragile and airy lark
Drawn to the neon glow
And the sonics of long ago

Dark round Manchego honey
Tuesday’s “Right on the Money”
Shot gun outlook is sunny
I’m so tired of fucking running
Dark round Manchego honey
Tuesday’s “Right on the Money”
Shot gun outlook is sunny
I’m so tired of fucking running

Hey!
Hold up hold up
I need a moment to pick my head up off of the god damn floor
Screw it on backwards so I can see behind if you think that what you’re doing is looking ahead

Every night in the same martini bar
Her eyes fixed upon the door
Hoping to see only the same faces and nothing more

You, you never said the words
Or maybe I just misheard
The bonds they were bound to break
The wait is too much to take
A singer from in the dark
A fragile and airy lark
Drawn to the neon glow
And the sonics of long ago

You’re falling amongst the stars
And I don’t know where you are
I tried to put up a fight
To be hit with the neon lights
the face is within the crowd
it’s all so incredibly loud
The margin is starting to fray
It’s harder to run away
These days
