Streets

Song Length: 3:55
Composer: Custom
Custom's Notes: a song about a hitman who falls in love with his mark. we wanted to shoot this super 16 black and white video of the whole thing in Berlin or something. it would have been cool. it sucks that making stuff costs so much.
Lyrics: I oh I

Sometimes it's time to think about it
sometimes it's time to find time
it's not like you really lost it
like a lucky penny or your mind

A ghost of you is on her lips
a shattered glimpse of when you'd play
leaving only silence
on another lonely day

But this is not the time
it's not the time to feel
you have your instructions
now you better close the deal

Step up I said step up do you hear me
when i'm talking to you
I said step up you stupid little fool
too long in the game to not know the rules
step up step up step up
don't even think about thinking about
what you're going to do
step up step up no way some dimple's
going to take you back to school

I oh why
I oh why

Sometimes it's time to think about it
sometimes it's time to find time
he may be her lucky penny
that she'll never get to shine

The streets between them are melting
as he puts together the bits of steel
he can still smell the flowers she kissed
in a way that he could feel

But they sent you the money
her address and the day
and the usual instructions
to blow the mark away

Step up I said step up do you hear me
when i'm talking to you
step up you stupid little fool
too long in the game to not know the rules
step up step up step up
don't even think about thinking about
what you're going to do
step up no way some dimple's
going to take you back to school

I oh I
I oh why
why oh why
why oh why

Yes this is your body
yes this is your face
this is your truth
your hatred your disgrace
she may be a mirror
in jest of your mistakes
or a monster too
who could understand your place

She may be a mirror
she may be a mirror
she may be a mirror in jest of your mistakes
she may be a monster
she may be a monster
she may be a monster
who will understand your place
