Chris & Carla Fear
There's a chrome-plated gun
Neath the nightstand table
Next to a shot-glass
And a used up razor
You pick it up
Go flown the stairs
Past the kids room
Into the air
Stones throw down the drive
You climb on in
$100 bills, taped to your skin
I say I'm surprised
That you're sittin' here' you say:
Don't ever, mention that again
Cyclone fence
An empty airstrip
When we leave this room
We swallow it
Lizard clouds
The silk of the corn
A crack in my conscience
Ain't the way, that I was born
Fear ain't nothin'
I promise
At the next table
Woman gets up to dance
She says "Come on Frank, give it a chance"
He's gettin' mad, says "Let it die"
"We came here to drink
Not to hurt ourselves"
Fear ain't nothin'
I promise
The sound of your name
Drowned out by the train
Fluorescent lights flash
Train rushes past
This could be anywhere
This could be now
Stole, borrowed, lended
Nobody here to show you how
Felt your hand go slack
In the rush and the black
The day is who loved you
The night took you back
Fear ain't nothin'
I promise
The sound of your name
Drowned out by the train
Fluorescent lights flash
Train rushes past
This could be anywhere
This could be now
Stole, borrowed, lended
Nobody here to show you how
Felt your hand go slack
In the rush and the black
The day is who loved you
The night took you back
