about

The new single from upcoming album, Hall Of Mirrors.

lyrics

I was a sucker for her perfume
And the mental lenses that she looked through
We made love under a full moon
In the football field by my old high school

She said, “it’s funny how life be
Just a collection of our life stories.”
I said, “I see what you mean.”
She said, “when you see me, what kind of character would I be?”

I said, “girl, you’re the hero -
anybody give you shit you take zero.
Me, I’m the bandit robbing your train
Thinking you can make a killing as a villain these days.”

She said, “are you gonna leave me, break my heart?”
I said, “maybe.” I said, “maybe.”
“Are you gonna leave me, break my heart?”
I said, “maybe.” She said, “babe” -


Please don’t leave me lonely, wait, wait, stay.
Please don’t leave me lonely
You can make a killing as a villain these days.


Life gave us lemons, so we made lemonade
And we spiked that shit with vodka and gin
And drank it ‘till our bellies ached
And we would laugh while we made love
And lately that’s all I’ve been thinking of
True, I had other lovers just in case
Thinking you can make a killing as a villain these days
And love is free, but it’ll get up and leave if you don’t communicate

I said, “are you gonna leave me, break my heart?”
She said, “maybe.” She said, “maybe.”
“Are you gonna leave me, break my heart?”
She said, “maybe.” I said, “babe” -

Please don’t leave me lonely, wait, wait, stay.
Please don’t leave me lonely
You can make a killing as a villain these days.

You can make a killing…
