Robbery Is Such An Ugly Word...

coat you in red, miss scarlet, (red)
and we'll paint this town something violent (red)
we'll carve our names in the city streets
and we'll leave the people on their knees, because
we're searching for nearly anyone
and inspiration's where we find it
not in the eyes of our ex loves
looking down the barrels of our guns...

we're, oh, we're the best of lovers
but we're dying to keep you here
and we are such magnificent liars
so forget whatever you hear...

so crawl in through my window miss...
placed on the sill
it'll shatter and you'll watch the glass glow
baby, as you pop another pill.

so then crawl out my window, miss (arson)
we'll watch the house burn down
everything we said we knew about,
well we never really found

boys, grab your .45's, we're here to leave some scars...
we're, oh, we're the best of lovers
(put your hands up, and your head down)
but we're dying to keep you here
(put your hands up, and your head down)
and we are such magnificent liars
(put your hands up, and your head down)
so forget whatever you hear...
(put your hands up, and your head down)

all the blacks clouds hang around our necks
and the funerals take their toll
lucky us, we found the inspiration
you traced in the fog on the window

we're looking for the light inside a well lit room
(like how your calendar's always pinned on summertime)
we're searching for the glow against the neon gloom
(i hate the fact that you are all of my best lines)
