about

Crime Noir inspired

lyrics

I met her when the light got dimmer
In a place made of regrets
They would call us both a sinner
Smelling of whiskey and cigarettes
I swear she could see what I was thinking
And her red lips still touched mine
We left as the alcohol was sinking
Sinking deep inside our minds

Maybe she was just too lonely
And she saw in me the same
Like when bees are drawn to honey
Only nature is to blame

Now I’m hearing sirens in the city
Another story to be told
I know the ending's never pretty
But the in between is gold

We found the darkest place we could
Away from the city’s eyes
She never thought about if she should
Lust was her only guide
I felt her holding me so tightly
As if she wanted me close
I could feel her breathing oh so lightly
As she sang her final notes

Maybe she was just too lonely
And she saw in me the same
Like when bees are drawn to honey
Only nature is to blame

Now I’m hearing sirens in the city
Another story to be told
I know the ending's never pretty
But the in between is gold

And the night will hide the pages
Of another tale I wrote
Until the moon and sun trade places
And I rest my weary soul

She doesn’t hear the sirens in the city
She’s just another life I stole
