lyrics

OLD FAITHLESS

VERSE
I spent a night in the outskirts
Can't say I waited for you
I was misplaced like the Big Bird
In Billy Miner's Canoe

You kicked my heart with your steel toe
You pierced my back with your glance
Your words were nothing but death prose
Old Faithless asks for the dance


VERSE
You dragged me home to your cold cave
We spent the night on the roof
Me getting out was a close shave
And to your perch aloof

I wish I'd called it a day there
Took all my treasures and ran
Instead of sucking the death glare
My vanity in your ban

CHORUS
And while - I thought I'd bide my time
Just begging for a smile
A smile that never shows - in faces
The train - the last that ever came
I took to flee your pain
For warmer, sweeter range of spaces


VERSE
When I got back to the city
Three Million lights in the dark
Guess who was already waiting
Ready to go berserk

Flew all the way to the West Coast
Left you behind in your hell
You freed my soul with your steel toes
Good Bye, my Berlin Belle


CHORUS
