Film Noir Lyrics
Intro:
When Brian starts to sing, you can here the same notes once again in the beginning of
every new verse.
I'm all washed out by the side of the road
Broken bones, Matilda left a note and a rose
Saying "Baby, honey child, I love you so long but you deserve much better
than me
So I'm just burning all around, all the miles on the road
And I'm never going back, and I'm never going home
I've been gone too long, I've been less right than wrong
I've lost so much blood in the falling out
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house
Until all I remember was burning away
And all I remember, you burnt it away
See for 10 long years I've been hustling around
Trying to wash the sins and sweat from my brow
Just trying to find a better life for me and my own
Just some rest for these tired working fingers
But nobody never gonna tell you the way
You gotta figure it out boys and suffer the rain
And the fools in the night, and the heat in the day
When all you ever really wanted was someone to understand
Repeat same chours again, and then it's the same until
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice
You got Monroe hips, your poison lips and eyes
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice
You got open wounds in a young boy's pride 2x
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house
Until all I remember was burning away
And all I remember, you burnt it away
Well don't you take it so hard and baby don't you cry.
Cross your hard heart and hope to die.
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied all the time.
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied every night.
