You show the moonlight 01:11
a cigarette [music] 01:14
glow. 01:15
Some kind of love we're [music] not 01:17
going to know. 01:20
Hotel Saturn, 01:23

your warm skin. 05:25
This is my [music] last cigarette. 05:27
This is my last regret. [music] 05:31
The slowest way I know to forget, 05:35
[music] 05:38

in the dark and you pull me back down 05:41
and I light another. [music and singing] 05:45

is [music] my last cigarette. 06:24
This is my last regret. 06:27

The engine is off, [music] but the 08:53
heater [singing] is on. 08:56
Waiting around for [music] 08:59
a miserable dawn. 09:01
I reach in my pocket, I pull out 09:04
[music and singing] the pack. 09:08
There's only one left. There is no going 09:09
back. 09:14
This cigarette [music] strong, it's 09:17
slowing my heart, tearing this cynical 09:18
armor apart. 09:21
I stare [music] at the dashboard, I 09:27
stare at the night. 09:29

crash. 10:20
>> [music] 10:22
>> Your voice on my voicemail, a ghost in 10:22
the phone. 10:25
Reminding [music] me why 10:27
I am better alone. [singing] 10:29
We were [music] a poison 10:32
that [singing] tasted so sweet. 10:35
A mutual destruction [music] 10:38
we couldn't defeat. 10:40
The [music] red cherry burns in the dark 10:43

A tiny and fading 10:49
and meaningless [music] 10:51
star. 10:53
A sluggish drum beat is slowing my 10:56
heart, tearing this cynical [music] 10:58

leaving me braced, 11:41
leaving me empty [music] 11:44
and cold in this place. 11:46
I'm letting you go 11:49

Smoking your hair, trouble in your 13:59

I should have known better, but I liked 14:05
liked the lies. 14:09
>> [music] 14:12
[music] 14:17
[music] 14:24
>> The basement bar was breathing slow, 14:24
blue light dripping on the floor [music] 14:27
below. You danced like the world had 14:29
done you wrong, and I was just drunk 14:31
enough to [music] sing along. You said, 14:34
"Don't ask me where I've been." With a 14:36
little black dress and a tired grin, I 14:38
said, "Don't worry, I'm damaged, [music] 14:41
too." You smiled like that was beautiful 14:43
news, and the baseline crawled through 14:46
the walls like sin. 14:48
>> [music] 14:49
>> You touched my hand and the room 14:52
[singing] caved in. 14:54
I don't want safe, 14:57
>> [music] 14:58
>> I want your kind of raw. 14:59

Kiss [music] me where the lonely people 15:08
hide 15:10
under the glow 15:12
of the exit [music] sign. 15:14
I I clean, 15:19
I want [music] smoke and wine. 15:21
Your red mouth ruining my peace of mind. 15:24
Leave me with [music] a memory I can't 15:30
deny. 15:33
>> Lipstick on the exit sign. 15:35
Outside the city had a wet, black 15:42
[music] shine like a movie scene with no 15:45
clear [singing] line between romance and 15:47
a bad mistake between being in love and 15:49
[music] staying away. You caught a cab 15:52
and called it off, lit one more 15:55
cigarette and softly coughed [music] and 15:57
said, "Baby, I'm no good for you." I 15:59
said, "That's the oldest thing that's 16:01
ever been true." And your phone lit up 16:03
with [music] someone else's name. 16:06
You turned it down like you weren't 16:10
ashamed. 16:12
I don't want safe, [music] 16:15
I want your kind of wrong. 16:17
The kind that saves me [music] when the 16:21
night is gone. 16:23
Kiss me where the lonely [music] people 16:26
hide 16:28
under the glow 16:30
of the [music] exit sign. 16:32
>> I don't [music] want clean, 16:37
I want smoke and wine. 16:39
Your red mouth ruining [music] my peace 16:42

Leave me with a memory [music] I can't 16:48
deny. 16:51
Lipstick on the exit sign. 16:53
>> [music] 16:55
>> We're too old to call it magic, too 17:00
young to call it dead. 17:03
>> [music] 17:05
>> Too broke to buy forgiveness, too proud 17:06
to beg instead. [music] 17:09
[singing] You were laughing in the 17:10
rainfall, 17:12
I was falling in the dark. some people 17:14
leave [music] a number. 17:18
Some people leave [singing] a mark. 17:21

Under the glow 18:11
of the [music] exit sign. 18:13
I don't want clean. 18:18
I want smoke and [music] wine. 18:20
Your red mouth the ruin in my peace of 18:23
mind. 18:26
Leave me with a memory [music] 18:28
I can't deny. 18:30
Lipstick [music] on the exit sign. You 18:33
left lipstick on the exit sign. 18:36
>> [music] 18:40
>> Like even goodbye 18:40
needed a little red wine. 18:42
I watched you vanish [music] in the taxi 18:45
light. 18:49
Red mouth, [music] black night, exit 18:52
sign. 18:55
>> [music] 19:01
[music] 19:07
>> Drunk 19:09
to the feeling dies. 19:11
>> [music] 19:13
>> Past the motels [music] 19:17
and the liquor signs. 19:18
Your head on the window, 19:23
>> [music] 19:25
>> your eyes on the moon. 19:26
We left the city like a bad afternoon. 19:29
[singing] 19:33
>> [music] 19:36
[music] 19:42
[music] 19:53
>> The highway shivered in the gasoline 20:00
rain. 20:02
>> [music] 20:03
>> You said my name like you were tasting 20:03
pain. I kept both hands on the wheel too 20:05
tight, trying not to love you in the 20:07
dashboard light. You had a cigarette 20:10
behind your ear, 20:12
>> [music] 20:14
>> a silver flask in a quiet fear. Said if 20:14
I fall asleep, don't take me home. I 20:17
said, [music] "Baby, nobody should wake 20:19
up alone [singing] in the white lines 20:21
fade. 20:23
And the darkest wild, [music] 20:25
your silence moves 20:28
like a ghost inside. So, we drive 20:31
till the feeling dies. 20:36
Till the old hurt 20:39
loses its appetite. [music] 20:41
Till your heartbreak falls behind. 20:44
>> [music] 20:48
>> Like a town 20:50
we never liked. 20:53
Drive till 20:56
the morning comes. Till the bad luck 20:58
comes undone. If [music] we can't be 21:01
saved tonight, 21:03
we can still outrun the light. 21:04
You told me about him near the county 21:08
line. 21:10
How he made love feel like doing time. 21:11
[music] I told you about her by the exit 21:13
ramp. How she left my heart like a 21:16
burned out lamp. We laughed at the 21:18
things that almost [music] killed us. 21:20
Like grown up love we tried to build us 21:22
out of unpaid bills and motel sheets. 21:25
Out of pretty lies and broken sleep. 21:28
And the radio [music] cried 21:31
in a minor key. 21:34
You looked half 21:36
alive 21:38
and close to 21:39
dying. 21:41
Till the feeling dies. 21:43
Till the old hurt loses its appetite. 21:46
[music] 21:50
Till your heartbreak 21:51
falls behind. 21:54
Like [music] a town 21:57
we never liked. 22:00
Drive [music] till the morning comes. 22:03
Till the bad love comes undone. If we 22:06
can't be saved tonight, 22:09
we can still [music] out run the light. 22:11
>> [music] 22:17
>> Maybe we're not running. [music] 22:21
Maybe we're just learning how to 22:24
breathe. 22:26
>> [music] 22:28
>> Maybe all this darkness [music] 22:32
is the only honest place to be. 22:34
Put your hand in my jacket. 22:41
>> [music] 22:43
>> Close your eyes 22:46
if [music] you need. 22:48
There's no heaven on this highway. 22:52
[music] 22:54
But there's a little peace. 22:58
>> [music] 23:05
>> So we [music] drive 23:21
till the feeling dies. 23:23
Till the old hurt loses its [music] 23:27
sight of the time. 23:29
Till your heartbreak falls behind. 23:32
Like a town 23:37
we [music] never liked. 23:40
Drive till the morning comes. Till the 23:44
bad [music] love comes undone. If we 23:47
can't be safe tonight, 23:49
we can still outrun [music] 23:52
the light. 23:53
Drive 23:55
till the feeling dies. 23:57
Past the motels and 24:01
>> [music and singing] 24:03
>> the liquor signs. 24:03
Your head on the window. 24:07
Your 24:10
eyes on the moon. 24:11
I still miss that road with you. 24:14
>> [music] 24:20
[music] 24:28
[music] 24:40
>> She [music] brought me flowers from a 24:48
liquor store. 24:51
Roses wrapped in receipts on the 24:54
bathroom floor. She said, [music] 24:58
"Love is prettier when it's half 25:01
destroyed." Then kissed me [music] like 25:04
a habit she could 25:07
still avoid. 25:10
>> [music] 25:12
[music] 25:22
[music] 25:32
>> The club was closing, the streets were 25:33
wet. Her mascara ran like a dark regret. 25:35
[music] She held her heels in her right 25:38
hand and called every taxi a promised 25:40
land. We walked past windows full 25:43
[music] of better lives, clean white 25:45
kitchens and faithful wives. She said, 25:48
"Do you ever feel left outside?" [music] 25:50
I said, "Only when I'm trying to 25:52
survive." She laughed so softly, 25:54
like breaking glass. Some women are 25:58
like a beautiful [music] 26:02
crash. 26:04
Blackout 26:07
>> [music] 26:08
>> bouquet in my shaking hands. 26:08
Petals [music] 26:13
falling with the night expanding. 26:14
She was wind and thunder, silk and 26:17
shame. 26:21
I forgot myself 26:23
when she said my name. 26:25
>> [music] 26:29
>> Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong. 26:29
Slow dance dying to a trip hop song. If 26:32
she was poison, I drank it sweet. 26:35
Now every bar 26:39
>> [music] 26:42
>> smells like [singing] her 26:42
to me. 26:45
>> [music] 26:49
>> She had a scar that she never explained. 26:50
A silver ring and a fake last name. 26:53
[music] She said, "Don't make me into 26:55
something good." I said, "Baby, I don't 26:57
think I could." The morning found us on 27:00
the screenless [music] couch with 27:02
cigarette burns in the coffee clouds. 27:04
She watched the sunlight touch the floor 27:06
like it was asking [music] her for more. 27:09
I knew she'd leave 27:12
before she moved. 27:15
[music] Some people teach you 27:17
what you can't undo. 27:20
Blackout [music] bouquet in my shaking 27:24
hands. 27:27
Petals falling with the night expense. 27:30
[music] 27:32
She was wild and thunder, silk and 27:34
[music] shame. 27:37
I forgot myself 27:40
when she said my name. 27:42
Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong. Slow 27:46
dancing to a cheap pop [music] song. If 27:50
she was poison, I'd drink it sweet. 27:52
Now every bar 27:56
>> [music] 27:59
>> smells like hurting me. 27:59
There are girls [music] who want saving. 28:07
There are girls who want [singing] gold. 28:10
She wanted one dark [music] evening 28:13
where she didn't feel cold. 28:15
There are men who want heaven. 28:18
There are men who want truth. [music] 28:21
I wanted one clean minute inside the 28:23
ruin of you. Don't call it tragic. 28:27
>> [music] 28:31
>> Don't call it fate. 28:32
Some flowers bloom 28:34

She bought me flowers from a liquor 29:43
store. [music] 29:46
Roses wrapped 29:48
in receipts on the bathroom [music] 29:51
floor. Blackout bouquet [singing] 29:53

It shows the dust [music] in your 30:48
beautiful lies. 30:51
It makes the room feel softer [singing] 30:54
than it is 30:57
and leaves its bruises when nobody 31:00
looks. 31:03
>> [music] 31:06
[music] 31:13
>> You were standing by the record player, 31:17
[music] 31:19
barefoot drunk saying one more prayer 31:19
for [singing] every man who tried to 31:22
make you stay, for every woman you 31:23
became the getaway. The roads [music] 31:26
was crying through the walls. Someone 31:28
left in the upstairs hall. You said, 31:31
"I'm not as cold as I pretend." I said, 31:33
"I'm not as strong as I defend." [music] 31:36
In the shadows then, 31:38
in the city side, 31:41
you touched [music] my face 31:44
like an alibi. 31:47
Love is a low light, a slow knife, a 31:49
cigarette glowing in a bad [music] 31:53
night. 31:55
Love [music] is a low light, a sweet 32:00
lie, a little bit of heaven [music] with 32:03
a wrong side. 32:06
Hold me like the damage isn't [music] 32:11
real. 32:12
Kiss me till there's nothing left to 32:13
feel. 32:15
Love 32:17
is a low [music] light. 32:18
Baby, we look good inside it. 32:21
>> [music] 32:24
>> You told me secrets with your eyes half 32:29
shut, [music] 32:31
all the places where the world got 32:32
rough. I didn't fix you, I just [music] 32:33
listened 32:36
Sometimes that's the closest thing to 32:37
hope. The bottle emptied, the room got 32:39
still. [music] We heard the traffic 32:42
dragging up the hill. You said, "If I 32:44
leave, don't [music] follow me." I said, 32:46
"If you call, don't promise anything 32:48
because we both know 32:50
how the ending goes. [singing and music] 32:53
You'll become smoke. 32:56
I'll become alone. 32:59
Love is [music] a lowlife, slow life, 33:01
cigarette glowing in a bad light. 33:05
[singing] 33:08
>> [music] 33:12
>> Love is a lowlife, sweet life, a little 33:12
bit of heaven [music] with a wrong side. 33:17
Hold me like [music] a damn religion 33:23
real. Kiss me till there's nothing left 33:25
to feel. 33:27
Love is a lowlife. 33:29
And baby, we look good inside it. 33:33
>> [music] 33:37
>> There are rooms we never leave. 33:40
>> [music] 33:42
>> There are names we never lose. [singing] 33:42
There are people we survived and [music] 33:45
still compare everyone to. 33:48
If this is all we get, 33:51
>> [music] 33:53
>> let it ache, let it shine. 33:54
I don't need it clean. 33:57
I just need it mine. 33:59
>> [music] 34:02
[music] 34:17
>> Love is a lowlife, slow life, 34:22
cigarette [music] glowing in a bad 34:26
light. 34:28
>> [music] 34:32
>> Love is a low light, sweet life. 34:33
A little bit of heaven with a wrong 34:37
side. 34:39
>> [music] 34:40
>> Hold me like the damage isn't real. Kiss 34:43
me till there's nothing left to feel. 34:46
Love is a low light. 34:49
Baby, we look good inside it. 34:53
Love is low light. 35:01
Not a sunrise. 35:04
It [music] shows the truth in your 35:06
beautiful lies. 35:09
If I had to lose, I'd lose like this. 35:12
With your smoke in the room and your 35:18
ghost 35:21
on my 35:23
lips. 35:24
>> [music] 35:25
[music] 35:34
[music] 35:39
>> Welcome to low rent paradise. [singing] 35:42
[music] 35:46
Where the pretty girls smoke in the 35:48
lonely men lie. 35:51
>> [music] 35:53
>> Where the champagne's warm and the 35:54
mirror is cool. [singing] 35:56
>> [music] 35:58
>> And everybody's breaking 35:59
some beautiful 36:04
>> [music] 36:06
[music] 36:15
>> There's a motel pool full of cigarette 36:16
stars. 36:19
>> [music] 36:21
>> A broken payphone by the vending 36:21
machines. 36:24
You came [music] downstairs with your 36:27
hair undone, 36:29
looking like trouble 36:32
from [music] a forgotten dream. 36:34
You said this town breaks the soft ones 36:38
[music] first, 36:41
then smiled like you knew exactly where 36:43
it hurt. 36:46
I said, "I'm not soft, I just bleed 36:48
inside." 36:51
You said, "Baby, [music] 36:54
that's soft with pride." 36:56
And the past [music] drifted like smoke 37:00
in the room. 37:03
You moved beside me 37:05
>> [music] 37:07
>> like elegant doom. 37:07
>> Lower 37:11
end paradise. 37:12
>> [music] 37:14
>> We look so good under damaged lights. 37:15
Hold me close where the good girls don't 37:18
[music] go. Kiss me slow in the 37:20
afterglow. 37:22
>> Lower 37:23
end paradise. 37:25
>> No one gets clean, no one thinks twice. 37:26
If love is a fall, let it feel this 37:28
nice. [music] Down in the lower end 37:30
paradise. 37:33
>> [music] 37:37
>> Your sunglasses sat on the Bible drawer. 37:39
Your lipstick marked [music] the 37:42
bathroom door. You talked about leaving 37:43
like it was a song, something you meant 37:46
but not for long. I watched you pour gin 37:49
into [music] lemonade. You said, "I like 37:52
men who already know." And I said, "I 37:54
like women [music] who scare me enough." 37:56
You said, "That isn't love, but it's 37:59
close enough." And the rain 38:00
>> [music] 38:02
>> came down on the parking lot 38:02
like the sky confessed what we could 38:06
not. 38:11
>> Lower 38:12
end paradise. 38:13
>> We look so good under damaged [music] 38:15
lights. Hold me close where the good 38:17
girls don't go. Kiss me in the 38:20
afterglow. 38:22
>> Lower end paradise. Lower in paradise. 38:24
[music] 38:25
>> No one gets clean. No one thinks twice. 38:26
If love is a fall, let it feel this 38:29
nice. Down in lower in paradise. 38:31
>> [music] 38:36
>> Maybe we're sinners. [music] Maybe we're 38:40
tired. Maybe the whole damn world is 38:42
built on desire. 38:46
Maybe the morning [music] 38:51
will make us ashamed. 38:52
But tonight you're an angel 38:55
>> [music] 38:58
>> with a fake last name. 38:59
Leave me a number 39:02
you'll never call. 39:05
Leave me [music] a memory 39:08
bigger than a song. 39:12
>> [music] 39:14
[music] 39:21
>> Bigger than a song. 39:23
>> [music] 39:31
>> Lower 39:34
in paradise. 39:35
We look so good under damaged [music] 39:38
lights. Hold me close where the good 39:40
girls don't go. Kiss me slow in the 39:43
afterglow. 39:45
>> [music] 39:48
>> Lower in paradise. No one gets clean. No 39:48
one thinks twice. If love is a fall, let 39:50
it feel this nice. Down in lower in 39:53
paradise. 39:57
Welcome to lower in 40:02
paradise. 40:07
Where the pretty girls smoke and the 40:11
lonely men lie. 40:13
>> [music] 40:16
>> You will be gone the morning light. 40:17
But you made hell look nice. 40:22
>> [music] 40:29
[music] 40:35
[music] 40:47
[music] 40:53
[music] 41:00
>> Streetlights burn through the rainy 41:08
glass. 41:10
>> [music] 41:11
>> Stepping heavily 41:13
>> [singing] 41:15
>> on the midnight gas. 41:15
There's a smudge of red 41:18
on the dashboard tray 41:20
from the dangerous [music] girl who 41:24
walked away. 41:26
I rolled down the window, let the cold 41:29
[music] wind blow. [singing] Got a tank 41:30
full of gas and nowhere to go. The 41:32
radio's dead, just the engine's hum, 41:35
waiting for the painful morning to come. 41:37
>> [music] 41:40
>> A pack of Marlboros sitting by my side, 41:41
the only girlfriend [music] on this 41:44
empty ride. I strike a match, and I 41:46
breathe it in deep, a toxic lullaby when 41:48
I cannot sleep. 41:51
Oh, it's a lonely drive 41:55
>> [music] 41:56
>> through the dead of night, 41:57
where the neon signs 42:00
are the only light. 42:03
>> [music] 42:05
>> You left your lipstick, 42:06
and you left a scar. 42:08
A beautiful 42:11
inside my car. [music] 42:14
I'm intoxicated by the thought of you. A 42:17
fateful [music] attraction I can't undo. 42:20
We played with fire in a world of sin. 42:22
Now [music] I'm just a loser who let you 42:25
in. 42:29
>> [music] 42:35
>> The whiskey has worn off. 42:39
[music and singing] The numbness fades. 42:41
I'm driving straight into the darkest 42:43
shades. I remember your hands. [music] I 42:45
remember your [singing] dress. A 42:47
masterpiece painted in gorgeous 42:49
distress. [music] You told me you loved 42:50
me with a cynical smile. I knew it was 42:52
fake but I stayed for a while because in 42:55
this plastic beautiful world, you were 42:57
my [music] favorite dangerous girl. Pack 43:00
them up or sit them by my side. [music] 43:02
The only loyal friend on this empty 43:05
ride. I strike a match and I breathe it 43:07
in deep. 43:09
A toxic lullaby when I cannot sleep. 43:10
Oh, 43:14
it's a lonely drive 43:16
through the air all night [music] 43:18
where the neon [singing] signs 43:21
are the only [music] light. 43:24
You left your lipstick 43:26
and you left [music] a scar. 43:29
A beautiful ghost 43:32
inside my car. 43:35
I'm intoxicated by the thought of you. A 43:38
fateful [music] 43:41
attraction I can't undo. We played with 43:41
fire in a world of sin. Now I'm just a 43:44
loser who let you in. 43:47
>> [music] 44:02
>> Dark at the end of the sea. 44:03
The scent of your perfume is 44:07
suffocating. [music] 44:09
I'm addicted to the pain. 44:12
>> Oh, 44:15
it's a lonely drive. 44:17
The end of night. 44:20
>> [music] 44:21
>> With [singing] neon signs. 44:22
Oh, the only light. 44:25
You left your lipstick. 44:28
And you left a scar. [music] 44:31
A beautiful ghost. 44:34
Inside my [music] car. 44:36
Just an empty road. 44:41
>> [music] 44:43
>> And a fading word stained 44:45
faith. [music] 44:47
Black. 44:48
>> [music] 44:59
[music] 45:10
[music] 45:16
[music] 45:22
>> Martini tears in the crystal glass. 45:23
You smile like money, but it never 45:28
lasts. 45:30
Black satin slipping off your shoulder 45:33
blade. 45:36
>> [music] 45:37
>> You make ruin look custom made. 45:39
>> [music] 45:47
[music] 45:54
>> The lounge was full of beautiful ghosts. 45:56
All hungry eyes [music] and expensive 46:02
clothes. 46:04
You sat alone where the blue lights 46:07
fell. 46:09
>> [music] 46:11
>> Like a rich girl waiting outside of 46:11
hell. 46:15
>> [music] 46:16
>> I said, "You look like someone hard to 46:17
please." You said, "You look like 46:19
someone on his knees." 46:21
I laughed because the truth [music] came 46:24
quick. Some women know exactly where to 46:25
stick the knife in. 46:27
And the jazz went crooked and the room 46:29
turned [music] slow. He said, "Don't get 46:31
attached." 46:33
Like I didn't [singing] know. 46:36
Martini [music] tears, dangerous grace, 46:40
a little bit of heaven on a guilty face. 46:43
You make sadness look good in the 46:46
chandelier [music and singing] light. 46:48
You make wrong feel right for one more 46:49
night. Martini tears, [music] silver and 46:51
cold. Love gets cheap when the night 46:54
gets old. If you leave me here with 46:56
nothing but [music] smoke, at least make 46:59
it beautiful [singing] 47:01
when you go. 47:02
>> [music] 47:05
>> You said your lover was waiting uptown, 47:08
but you didn't [music] move. You just 47:11
looked down. The olives sank in the 47:12
bottom of your drink like every bad 47:15
thought you refused to think. I asked 47:17
[music] if you were happy. You said, 47:19
"Define it." Then traced your nail 47:21
through the [singing] water line. Your 47:23
perfume stayed where your shadow moved 47:25
like a slow confession in a crowded 47:27
[music] room. 47:29
And I knew [singing] right then in the 47:31
velvet air you were not mine. [music] 47:32
But I 47:37
wanted you there. 47:38
Martini tears, dangerous grace, [music] 47:41
a little bit of heaven on a guilty face. 47:44
You make sadness look good in the 47:47
chandelier light. You make wrong feel 47:49
right for one more night. Martini 47:51
[music] tears, silver and cold. Love 47:54
gets cheap when the night gets old. 47:57
[music] If you leave me here with 47:59
nothing but smoke, at least make it 48:00
beautiful 48:03
when you go. 48:04
>> [music] 48:07
>> Maybe glamour is grief 48:11
with a better dress. 48:14
Maybe desire is just loneliness [music] 48:16
well pressed. 48:20
You don't need saving. 48:22
I don't need truth. [music] 48:25
Just one slow dance 48:28
in the ruins of you. 48:31
>> [music] 48:36
[music] 48:41
[music] 48:48
[music] 48:53
>> Martini tears. 48:54
Martini tears. 48:57
>> [music and singing] 48:59
>> Martini tears. 49:00
Martini tears. 49:05
Dangerous [music] grace, a little bit 49:07
[singing] of heaven on a guilty face. 49:09
You make sadness look good in the 49:12
chandelier [music] 49:13
light. You make wrong feel right for one 49:14
more night, martini tears. 49:17
>> [music] 49:19
>> You're silver and cold. Love gets cheap 49:19
when the night gets old. If you leave me 49:22
here with nothing but smoke, at least 49:24
make it beautiful 49:26
>> [music] 49:28
>> when you go. 49:31
Martini tears in a crystal glass. 49:33
You smile like [music and singing] 49:38
money, but it never lasts. 49:39
By morning, you were only [music] 49:43
perfume and air. 49:45
And one more ghost in a velvet 49:49
chair. 49:53
>> [music] 49:59
[music] 50:23
>> Answered it too [music and singing] 50:31
with a flickering sand. 50:33
Bottle of red 50:36
in a heart of 50:39
>> [music] 50:40
>> town. 50:40
You undid [singing] your hair and you 50:42
undid me, [music] too. 50:44
Hotel satin in the 50:48
>> [music and singing] 50:51
>> night. 50:51
Painted blue. 50:53
>> [music] 50:55
>> The ice machine hums down [music] the 51:04
end of the hall. 51:07
We don't say much. We don't say it at 51:10
all. 51:14
>> [music] 51:15
>> Your shoulder the moonlight, 51:15
a cigarette glow. 51:18
Some kind [music] of love 51:21
we're not 51:24
going to know. 51:25
>> [music] 51:27
>> Hotel satin, lost in your orbit. 51:27
A beautiful [music] gravity, baby, I 51:32
want it. 51:36
Pull [music] me apart in the dark, in 51:38
the heat. 51:42
We're two fallen stars. 51:44
On a 51:49
street. 51:50
>> [music] 51:51
>> Check out [music] is noon, 52:02
>> [singing] 52:03
>> but we're already gone. 52:04
You'll be [music] a stranger by the time 52:08
of [singing] the dawn, but God, for 52:11
these [music] hours, you're all that I 52:14
need. 52:17
A dangerous woman, a sweet little plea. 52:19
Hotel [music and singing] 52:23
Saturn, lost in your orbit. A beautiful 52:24
gravity, baby, I want it. 52:30
>> [music] 52:34
>> Pull me apart in the dark and the heat. 52:34
>> [music] 52:39
>> We're two falling stars 52:40

>> on a dead-end street. 52:45
>> [music] 52:54
>> In the morning, 52:58
we'll scatter [music] us thin 53:01
back to the lives we were [music] 53:03
drowning in. 53:07
But tonight, there's just you and this 53:09
dim [music] little room and the slow 53:12
lovely ache of two souls. 53:18
>> [music] 53:23
>> Hotel Saturn, 53:30
>> [music] 53:33
>> fading 53:34
to light. 53:36

>> Down to my last one, down [music] to my 54:36
last dime. 54:40
You and this habit, [music] 54:42
you're both out of time. 54:44
I light it up slow on the edge of the 54:46
bed 54:51
>> [music] 54:52
>> watching smoke spell the things left 54:52
unsaid. 54:56
>> [music] 55:05

fell from the rift. 55:12
A beautiful borrower 55:15
>> [singing] 55:17
>> I never could [music] lend. 55:17
The window cracked open and I creep 55:20
[music] in in. 55:24
I count all my losses against your warm 55:25
skin. 55:30
This is my last cigarette. 55:31
>> [music] 55:35
>> This is my 55:35
regret. 55:37
The slowest way I know to forget, 55:39
[music and singing] but you stir 55:43
in the dark and you pull me back 55:45
[singing] down and I light up another. 55:48
I'm not leaving town. 55:53
>> [music] 55:56
[music] 56:04
>> Morning's a stranger 56:06
I keep at the door. 56:09
You ask me to stay [music] 56:12
and I want [singing] nothing more. 56:14
A dangerous woman, a [music] permanent 56:17
ache. 56:21
The kind of mistake that I'd happily 56:23
make. This [music] is my last cigarette. 56:27
This is my [singing] last regret. 56:31
>> [music] 56:34
>> The slowest way I know to forget, but 56:35
you stir 56:39

[music and singing] 56:47
I'm not leaving town. 56:49
>> [music] 56:52
[music] 56:57
>> One more [music] drag, one more light. 57:02
One [singing] more reason I won't say 57:05
goodbye. The ashtray's a graveyard of 57:07
all my resolve and you're the one 57:09
problem I'll never solve. 57:11
>> [music] 57:14
>> Last cigarette. 57:18
>> [music] 57:22
>> Burning low. 57:23
The smoke [music] 57:30
and the woman 57:31
I'll never let go. 57:33

[music] 57:43
[music] 57:56
[music] 58:05
[music] 58:13
[music] 58:20
[music] 58:31
>> 3:00 in the morning, parked under a 58:47
tree. 58:50
Just me [music] in the shadow 58:51
of who I should be. 58:54
The [music] engine is off, but the 58:57
heater [singing] is on. 59:00
Waiting around for [music] a miserable 59:03
dawn. 59:07
I reach in my pocket, 59:08
I [music] pull out the pack. 59:11
There's only one left, there 59:14
is no going [music] back. 59:16
The cigarette strong, it's slowing my 59:21
heart, [music] tearing this cynical 59:23
armor apart. 59:25
>> [music] 59:31
>> I stare at the dashboard. I stare at the 59:31
night. 59:34
Losing my will [music] 59:36
to continue the fight. 59:38
I'm taking the last drag, [music] 59:41
holding it deep. 59:44
A dirty old secret 59:47
I'm trying to [music] keep. 59:50
Breathing you out in a cloud of gray 59:52
smoke. 59:56
>> [music] 59:57
>> A tragedy disguised as a terrible joke. 59:58
The nicotine rushes up, 00:03
heating my brain, 00:06
leaving me empty 00:09
and cold in this place. 00:11
I'm letting you go 00:14
with the flick of an ash. 00:16
A slow-motion beautiful romantic crash. 00:20
Your voice on my [music] voicemail, a 00:26
ghost in the phone, 00:28
reminding [singing] me why 00:31
>> [music] 00:33
>> I am better alone. 00:34
We were a poison 00:36
that tasted so sweet. 00:39
>> [music] 00:41
>> A mutual destruction 00:42
we couldn't defeat. 00:44
The red cherry burns in the dark of the 00:47
car. [music] 00:51
A tiny and fading 00:53
meaningless star. 00:56
>> [music] 00:59
>> A sluggish drumbeat is slowing my heart, 01:00
tearing this cynical armor apart. 01:03
I stare at the dashboard. I [music] 01:10
stare at the night. 01:12
Losing my will to continue the fight. 01:15
I'm taking the [music] last drag, 01:20
holding it deep. 01:23
A dirty old secret I'm [music] trying to 01:26
keep. 01:29
Breathing you out in a crowd of gray 01:31
smoke. [music] 01:35
A tragedy disguised as a terrible joke. 01:37
>> [music] 01:42
>> The nicotine rushes up 01:42
fleeting bliss 01:45
leaving [music] me empty 01:48
and cold in this place. 01:50
I'm letting you go 01:53
with [music] the flick of an ash. 01:55
A slow motion beautiful romantic crash. 01:59
>> [music] 02:06
>> Inhale. 02:07
Exhale. 02:10
Let the memory dissolve. [music] 02:12
Let the night take over. 02:14
>> [music] 02:31
>> I'm taking [music] the last drag, 02:37
holding it deep. 02:40
>> [music] 02:43
>> A dirty old secret 02:43
I'm trying to keep. 02:45
Breathing you [music] out 02:48
in a crowd [singing] of gray smoke. 02:50
A tragedy disguised [music] as a 02:54
terrible joke. 02:57
The last drag. 03:00
It's [music] finally over. 03:05
>> [music] 03:15
>> Mhm. 03:17
>> [music] 03:25
[music] 03:32
[music] 03:38
[music] 03:46
[music] 03:53
>> You left lipstick on the exit sign. 03:53
Like even goodbye [music] needed 03:58
[singing] 04:00
a little red wine. 04:00
Smoking [music] 04:03
your hair, trouble in your eyes. 04:04
I should have known better, but [music] 04:09
I lied. 04:11
Like the lie. 04:14
>> [music] 04:21
[music] 04:26
>> The basement bar was breathing slow, 04:29
blue light dripping on the floor [music] 04:31
below. You danced like the world had 04:33
done you wrong, and I was just drunk 04:35
enough to sing along. You said, "Don't 04:38
ask me where I've been." With the little 04:40
[music] black dress and a tight grin. 04:42
And I said, "Don't worry, I'm damaged, 04:44
too." You smiled like that was beautiful 04:47
news, and [music] the baseline crawled 04:50
through the walls like sin. 04:52
You touched [music] my hand, and the 04:56
room caved in. 04:58
>> [music] 05:01
>> I don't want safe. 05:01
I want your kind of wrong. 05:03
The kind that stains [music] me when the 05:07
night is gone. 05:09
Kiss me where lonely people hide [music] 05:12
under the glow 05:16
of the exit sign. 05:18
>> [music] 05:22
>> I don't want clean, 05:23
I want smoke and wine. 05:25
Your red mouth is ruining my [music] 05:29
peace of mind. 05:31
Leave me with a memory I can't 05:34
deny. 05:37
>> [music] 05:38
>> Lipstick on the exit sign. 05:39
Outside the city [music] had a wet black 05:47
shine, like a movie scene with no clear 05:49
line between [music and singing] romance 05:52
and a bad mistake, between being loved 05:53
and staying awake. You called a cab and 05:56
called it off, lit one more [music] 05:59
cigarette and softly coughed and said, 06:01
"Baby, I'm no good for you." I said, 06:03
"That's the oldest thing that's ever 06:06
been true." And your phone lit up with 06:08
someone [music] else's name. 06:10
You turned it down like you weren't 06:14
ashamed. 06:16
>> [music] 06:19
>> I don't want safe, 06:19
I want your kind of wrong. 06:21
The kind that [music] stains me when the 06:25
night is gone. 06:27
Kiss me where the lonely [music] 06:30
people hide 06:32
under the glow 06:34
of the exit sign. 06:36
>> [music] 06:40
>> I don't want clean, 06:41
I want smoke and wine. 06:43
>> [music] 06:46
>> Your red mouth is ruining my peace of 06:47
mind. 06:50
Leave me with a memory [music] 06:52
I can't 06:53
deny. 06:56
Lipstick on the exit [music] sign. 06:57
>> [music] 07:04
>> We're too old to call it magic, 07:04
[singing] 07:06
too to call it deep. 07:07
Too broke to buy forgiveness. [music] 07:10
Too proud to beg instead. You were 07:12
laughing in the rainfall. [music] I was 07:15
falling in the dark. [singing] 07:19
Some people leave a number. [music] 07:21
Some people leave a mark. 07:25
>> [music] 07:27
[music] 07:34
[music] 07:39
[music] 07:47
[music] 07:55
>> I don't want to say. 08:00
>> [music] 08:01
>> I want your kind of wrong. 08:01
The kind that stains me when the night 08:05
is gone. [music] 08:08
Kiss me where the lonely people hide. 08:11
Under the glow [music] of the exit sign. 08:15
I don't want [music] clean. I want smoke 08:22
and wine. 08:25
Your red mouth is ruining my 08:27
>> [music] 08:30
>> peace of mind. 08:30
Leave me with a memory I can't 08:32
deny. 08:36
>> Lipstick [music] on the exit sign. You 08:37
left lipstick on the exit sign. 08:41
Like giving goodbye 08:44
needed a little red wine. [music] 08:46
I watched you vanish in the taxi light. 08:50
>> [music] 08:55
>> Red mouth, 08:56
black night, exit sign. 08:57
>> [music] 09:05
[music] 09:12
>> Drive 09:13
till the feeling dies. 09:16
Past the motels [music] 09:21
and the liquor signs. 09:22
>> [music] 09:27
>> Your head on the window, 09:27
your eyes on the moon. 09:30
>> [music] 09:32
>> We left the city like a bad afternoon. 09:33
>> [music] 09:39
[music] 09:45
[music] 09:51
[music] 09:56
>> The highway shivered under gasoline 10:04
rain. You said my name like you were 10:06
testing [music] pain. I kept [singing] 10:08
both hands on the wheel too tight, 10:10
trying not to love [music] you in the 10:12
dashboard light. 10:14
You had a cigarette behind your 10:15
[singing] ear, 10:17
a silver flask in the quiet field. Said 10:18
if I fall asleep, don't take me home. 10:21
[music] I said, "Baby, nobody should 10:23
wake up alone." And the white lines fade 10:25
[music] 10:28
in the darkest wild. 10:29
Your silence moves 10:32
>> [music] 10:33
>> like a ghost inside. So, we drive 10:35
>> [music] 10:39
>> till the feeling dies, 10:40
till the old hurt 10:43
loses [music] its appetite, 10:45
till your heartbreak 10:49
falls behind 10:51
like a town 10:54
we never lie. 10:57
Drive [music] till 11:01
the morning comes, 11:02
till the bad love comes undone. If we 11:04
can't be saved tonight, 11:06
we can still outrun the light. 11:08
>> [music] 11:11
>> You told me about him near the county 11:12
line, 11:14
how we made love feel like doing time. I 11:15
told [music] you about her by the exit 11:18
ramp, how she left my heart like a 11:20
burned out lamp. We laughed at the 11:22
things that almost killed us, 11:24
>> [music] 11:26
>> like growing up life had tried to build 11:26
us out of unpaid bills and motel sheets, 11:28
out of pretty lies and broken sleep. 11:32
And the radio cried 11:35
in a minor key. 11:38
You looked [music] half 11:41
alive 11:42
and close to 11:44
dying. 11:45
Till the feeling dies, 11:47
till the old hurt 11:50
loses its [music] appetite, 11:52
till your heartbreak 11:56
falls behind. 11:58
>> [music] 11:59
>> Like a town, 12:01
we never lie. 12:04
Drive till the morning comes, [music] 12:07
till the bad love comes undone. If we 12:11
can't be saved tonight, 12:13
we can still [music] outrun the light. 12:15
>> [music] 12:25
>> Maybe we're not running. 12:25
Maybe we're just learning how to 12:28
breathe. 12:30
>> [music] 12:31
>> Maybe all this darkness is the only 12:36
honest place to be. [music] 12:40
Put your hand in my jacket. [music] 12:45
Close your eyes 12:50
if you need. [music] 12:52
There's no heaven on this highway. 12:56
But there's [music] a little peace. 13:02
>> [music] 13:09
[music] 13:14
>> So we drive [music] 13:25
till the feeling dies. 13:27
Till the old heart 13:31
loses its appetite. 13:32
Till [music] your heartbreak 13:36
falls behind. 13:38
Like a town 13:42
we never left. 13:44
Drive till [music] 13:48
the morning comes. Till the bad love 13:49
comes undone. If we can't be safe 13:52
tonight, we can still outrun [music] the 13:55
light. 13:58
Drive 13:59
till the feeling dies. 14:01
Past [music] the motels and the liquor 14:05
signs. 14:08
Your head on the window. [singing] 14:12
[music] 14:14
Your 14:15
eyes on the moon. 14:15
I still miss that 14:18
road with you. 14:20
>> [music] 14:24
[music] 14:35
[music] 14:39
[music] 14:49
>> She brought me [music] flowers from a 14:53
liquor store. 14:55
Roses wrapped in receipts on the 14:58
bathroom floor. She said, "Love is 15:02
prettier when it's half [music] 15:06
destroyed." Then kissed me like a habit 15:08
she could 15:12
still avoid. [music] 15:14
>> [music] 15:22
[music] 15:30
[music] 15:37
>> The club was closing, the streets were 15:37
wet. Her mascara [singing] ran like a 15:39
dark regret. She held her heels in her 15:41
[music] right hand and called every taxi 15:44
a promised land. We walked past windows 15:47
full of better lives, 15:49
clean white kitchens and faithful 15:51
[music] 15:52
wives. She said, "Do you ever feel left 15:53
outside?" I said, "Only when I'm trying 15:55
to survive." She laughed so softly 15:58
like breaking glass. Some women arrive 16:02
like a beautiful crash. 16:07
Blackout [music] bouquet in my shaking 16:11
hands. 16:14
>> [music] 16:17
>> Head tilts forward where the night 16:17
expands. 16:19
She was [music] wine and thunder, silk 16:21
and shame. 16:24
I forgot myself 16:27
>> [music] 16:29
>> when she said my name. 16:30
Blackout bouquet, love gone 16:33
wrong, slow dance [music] dying to a 16:36
trip hop song. If she was poison, I'd 16:38
drink it sweet. 16:40
Now every bar 16:43
smells [music] 16:47
like her to me. 16:47
She had a scar that she never [music] 16:54
explained, a silver ring and a fake last 16:56
name. She said, "Don't make me into 16:59
something good." I said, "Baby, [music] 17:01
I don't think I could." The morning 17:04
found us on the screenless couch with 17:06
cigarette burns in the coffee [music] 17:08
clouds. She watched the sunlight touch 17:10
the floor like it was asking her [music] 17:13
for more. I knew she'd leave 17:15
before she moved. 17:19
Some people teach you [music] 17:21
what you can't undo. 17:24
Blackout 17:28
>> [music] 17:29
>> bouquet from my shaking hands. 17:29
Petals [music] falling with the night 17:34
expanding. 17:36
She was white and thunder, silk and 17:38
[music] shade. 17:42
I forgot myself 17:44
when she said my name. 17:46
Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong. Slow 17:50
dance dying [music] to a trip hop song. 17:54
If she was poison, I'd drink it sweet. 17:56
>> [music] 18:00
>> Now every bar 18:00
smells like her to me. 18:03
>> [music] 18:09
>> There are girls who want saving. 18:12
There are girls who want gold. 18:14
She wanted one [music] dark evening 18:17
where she didn't [singing] feel cold. 18:20
There are men who want heaven. 18:23
>> [music] 18:24
>> There are men who want truth. I wanted 18:25
one clean minute inside [music] 18:28
the ruin of you. Don't call it tragic. 18:31
Don't call it 18:36
>> [music] 18:38
>> Some flowers bloom 18:38
when it's already too late. 18:43
>> [music] 18:49
[music] 18:58
>> Blackout [music] bouquet in my shaking 19:07
hands. 19:10
Petals falling where the night expects. 19:13
She was wine and thunder, [music] silk 19:17
and shame. 19:20
I forgot myself 19:23
when she said [music] my [singing] name. 19:26
Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong, slow 19:29
dance dying to a trip [music] hop song. 19:33
If she was poison, I drank it sweet. 19:35
Now every bar [music] 19:39
smells like [singing] her to me. 19:42
She bought [music] me flowers from a 19:47
liquor store. 19:50
Roses wrapped in [music and singing] 19:53
receipts on the bathroom floor. Blackout 19:55
bouquet 19:59
will get him blue. 20:01
>> [music] 20:03
>> Some nights die, 20:03
but not in you. 20:08
>> [music] 20:17
[music] 20:23
[music] 20:28
[music] 20:35
[music] 20:45
>> Love is a low light, 20:47
not a sunrise. 20:50
It shows the dust in your beautiful 20:53
lies. 20:56
It makes the room feel softer than it 20:58
is, 21:02
and leaves its bruises when nobody 21:04
looks. 21:07
>> [music] 21:09
[music] 21:17
>> You were standing by the record player, 21:21
barefoot, drunk, saying one more prayer 21:24
[music] for every man who tried to make 21:26
you stay, for every woman you became to 21:28
get away. The [music] roads were crying 21:30
through the walls. Someone left in the 21:33
upstairs hall. You said, "I'm not as 21:36
cold as I pretend." [music] 21:38
I said, "I'm not as strong as I 21:40
[singing] defend." And the shadows bend. 21:42
[music] 21:44
And the city sighed. 21:45
You touched my face 21:48
like an alibi. 21:51
Love is a low light, [music] a slow 21:53
knife, a cigarette glowing in the bad 21:56
night. 22:00
Love is [music] a low light, a sweet 22:04
lie, a little bit of heaven with a wrong 22:07
side. 22:11
Hold me like the damage isn't real. 22:15
Kiss [music] me till there's nothing 22:18
left to feel. 22:19
Love is a low light. [music] 22:21
Baby, we look inside it. 22:25
>> [music] 22:29
>> You told me secrets with your eyes half 22:33
[music] shut. 22:35
All the places where the world got 22:36
rough. I didn't fix you, I just listened 22:38
close. [music] Sometimes that's the 22:40
closest thing to hope. The bottle 22:42
emptied, the room got still. We heard 22:44
the traffic dragging up the hill. You 22:47
said, "If [music] I leave, don't follow 22:49
me." I said, "If you call, don't promise 22:51
anything." Because we both know 22:54
[music and singing] 22:56
how the ending goes. 22:57
You'll become [music and singing] 23:00
smoke. 23:01
I'll become alone. 23:03
>> Love is a low light, a slow night, a 23:05
cigarette [music] glowing in the bad 23:09
night. 23:12
Love [music] 23:16
is a low light, a sweet life, a little 23:17
bit of heaven with a wrong side. 23:21
Hold me like the damage 23:27
[music and singing] is unreal. 23:28
Kiss me till there's nothing left to 23:30
feel. 23:32
Love [music] is a low light. 23:33
>> And baby, we look good inside it. 23:37
>> [music] 23:41
>> There are rooms we never leave. 23:44
There are names we never lose. There are 23:47
people we survived and still compare 23:50
[music] everyone [singing] to. 23:53
If this is all we get, 23:55
let it ache, let it shine. 23:58
>> [music] 24:00
>> I don't need it clean. 24:01
I just need it mine. 24:04
>> [music] 24:06
[music] 24:17
>> Love is a lowlight, [music] slow night. 24:26
A cigarette glowing in a bad night. 24:30
>> [music] 24:36
>> Love is a lowlight, sweet lie. A little 24:37
bit of [music] heaven with a wrong side. 24:41
Hold me [music] like the damage isn't 24:47
real. 24:49
Kiss me till there's nothing left to 24:50
feel. 24:52
Love is a lowlight. [music] 24:54
And baby, we look good inside it. 24:58
>> [music] 25:03
>> Love is a lowlight. 25:05
Not a sunrise. [music and singing] 25:08
It shows the truth in your beautiful 25:11
lies. 25:14
If I had to lose, [music] 25:16
I'd lose like this. 25:18
With your smoke [music and singing] in 25:22
the room and your ghost on my lips. 25:24
>> [music] 25:29
[music] 25:35
[music] 25:43
>> Welcome to low rent paradise. 25:46
Where the pretty girls [music] smoke and 25:52
the lonely men lie. 25:55
Where the champagne's warm and the 25:58
mirror is cool. 26:00
And everybody's breaking [music] 26:03
some beautiful rules. 26:08
>> [music] 26:13
[music] 26:19
>> There's a motel pool full of cigarette 26:21
stars. 26:23
A broken [music] 26:26
payphone by the vending machines. 26:26
You came downstairs [music] 26:31
with your hair undone. 26:33
Looking like trouble [music] 26:36
from a forgotten dream. 26:38
You said this town makes the soft ones 26:42
first. 26:45
Then smile like you knew exactly where 26:47
it hurt. 26:50
>> [music] 26:51
>> I said, "I'm not soft. [singing] 26:52
I just bleed inside." 26:54
You said, [music] "Baby, 26:58
that's soft with pride." 27:00
And the past drifted [music] 27:04
like smoke in the room. 27:06
You moved beside me like elegant doom. 27:10
Lower end paradise. 27:15
>> [music] 27:18
>> We look so good in the damaged lights. 27:19
Hold me close where the good girls go 27:22
cold. [music] Kiss me slow in the 27:24
afterglow. 27:26
>> Lower 27:27
end paradise. 27:29
>> No one [music] gets clean. No one thinks 27:30
twice. If love is a fall, let it feel 27:32
this nice. Down in the [music] lower end 27:34
paradise. 27:37
The sun lasted [music] 27:43
that on the Bible drawer. Your lipstick 27:45
marked the bathroom door. You talked 27:47
about leaving like it was a song. 27:49
Something you meant but not for [music] 27:52
long. I watched you pour gin into 27:54
lemonade. You said, "I like men who 27:56
already know pain." I said, "I like 27:59
women who scare me enough." You said, 28:01
[music] "That isn't love, but it's close 28:03
enough." And the rain came down on the 28:05
parking lot 28:08
like the sky. Confessed [music] 28:11
what we could not. 28:13
We look so good under damaged lights. 28:19
[music] Hold me close where the good 28:22
girls don't go. Kiss me slow in the 28:24
afterglow. 28:27
No one gets clean. No [music] one thinks 28:30
twice. If love is a fall, let it feel 28:33
this nice down in Lauren Paradise. 28:35
>> [music] 28:41
>> Maybe we're sinners. Maybe we're tired. 28:44
Maybe the whole damn world is built on 28:47
desire. [music] 28:51
Maybe the morning will make us ashamed. 28:55
But tonight [music] you're an angel 28:59
with a fake last name. 29:03
>> [music] 29:06
>> Leave me a number [singing] 29:06
you'll never call. 29:09
Leave me [music] a memory 29:12
bigger than a soul. 29:16
>> [music] 29:21
>> Bigger than [music] a soul. 29:27
>> [music] 29:34
>> Lauren 29:38
Paradise. 29:40
We look so good under damaged 29:42
[music and singing] 29:44
lights. Hold me close where the good 29:44
girls don't go. Kiss me slow in the 29:47
afterglow. 29:49
Lauren Paradise. No [music] one gets 29:52
clean. No one thinks twice. If love is a 29:54
fall, let it feel this nice down in 29:57
[music] Lauren Paradise. 30:00
Welcome [music] to low 30:06
paradise 30:11
>> [music] 30:13
>> where the pretty girls smoke and the 30:15
lonely men lie. 30:17
You were gone by the morning [music] 30:21
light 30:23
but you made hell look nice. 30:27
>> [music] 30:33
[music] 30:41
[music] 30:50
[music] 30:56
[music] 31:02
[music] 31:09
>> Streetlights burn through the rainy 31:12
glass. [music] 31:14
Stepping heavily on the midnight gas. 31:17
[music] 31:21
There's a smudge of red 31:22
on the dashboard tray 31:25
from the dangerous girl [music] who 31:28
walked away. 31:31
I rolled down the window let the cold 31:33
wind blow. Got a tank full of gas and 31:35
nowhere to go. The radio's [music] 31:37
dead just the engine's hum waiting for 31:40
the painful morning to come. 31:42
A pack of Marlboros sitting [music] by 31:45
my side the only loyal friend on this 31:47
empty ride. I strike a match and I 31:50
breathe it in deep but toxic lullaby 31:52
when I cannot sleep. 31:55
>> [screaming] 31:58
>> It's a A 31:59
through the end of night 32:02
>> [music] 32:03
>> where the neon signs 32:04
are the only [singing] light. 32:07
You left your lipstick [music] 32:10
and you left a scar. 32:13
A beautiful [music] ghost 32:16
inside my car. 32:18
I'm [music] intoxicated by the thought 32:21
of you. A fateful attraction I can't 32:23
undo. We played with fire in a world of 32:26
sin. 32:29
Now I'm just a loser who let you in. 32:30
The whiskey [music] is wearing off and 32:44
I'm in this [singing] phase. I'm driving 32:46
straight into the darkest shades. I 32:48
remember your hands. I remember your 32:50
dress. A masterpiece painted [music] in 32:52
gorgeous distress. You told me you loved 32:54
me with a cynical smile. I knew it was 32:56
fake but I stayed for a while [music] 32:59
because in this plastic beautiful world, 33:01
you were my favorite dangerous girl. A 33:04
pack of Marlboros sitting by my side, 33:06
the only loyal friend [music] on this 33:09
empty ride. I strike a match and I 33:11
breathe it [singing] in deep. A toxic 33:13
lullaby when I cannot sleep. 33:15
It's a lonely drive 33:20
>> [music] 33:21
>> through the end of night 33:22
where the neon signs 33:25
are the [music] only light. 33:28
You left your lipstick 33:31
and you left a [music] scar. 33:33
A beautiful ghost 33:37
inside my car. [music] 33:39
I'm intoxicated by the thought of you. A 33:42
fateful attraction I can't undo. [music] 33:45
We played with fire in a world of sin. 33:47
Now [singing] I'm just a loser who let 33:50
you in. 33:53
>> [music] 34:04
>> Dark at the empty sea. 34:07
>> [music] 34:09
>> The scent of your perfume is 34:11
suffocating. 34:13
>> [music] 34:15
>> I'm addicted to the pain. 34:16
It's a lonely drive. 34:21
Ooh, 34:24
>> [music] 34:24
>> in the dead of night. 34:24
Ooh, with the neon shine. 34:27
Ooh, 34:29
you're the only light. 34:30
You left your lipstick. 34:32
And you left a scar. [music] 34:35
A beautiful ghost. 34:38
Inside my car. 34:41
>> [music] 34:44
>> Just an empty road. 34:45
And a fading [music] red stain. 34:49
Hey, 34:51
black. 34:52
>> [music] 35:07
[music] 35:14
[music] 35:26
>> Martini tears in a crystal glass. 35:27
You smile like money, but it never 35:32
lasts. 35:34
Black satin slipping off your shoulder 35:37
blade. 35:40
You make ruin look custom [music] 35:43
made. 35:45
>> [music] 35:50
[music] 35:56
>> The lounge was full of beautiful ghosts. 36:00
All hungry eyes [music and singing] and 36:06
expensive clothes. 36:07
You sat alone [singing] where the blue 36:11
lights [music] fell. 36:13
Like a rich girl waiting outside of 36:16
hell. 36:19
>> [music] 36:20
>> I said, "You look like someone hard to 36:21
please." You said, "You look like 36:23
someone on his knees." [music] 36:25
I laughed because the truth came quick. 36:28
Some women know exactly where to stick 36:30
the knife in. 36:32
When the jazz [music] went crooked and 36:33
the room turned slow, you said, "Don't 36:35
get attached." 36:37
Like [music] I didn't know 36:40
my teeny tears. Dangerous grace, a 36:44
little bit of heaven on a guilty [music] 36:47
face. You make sadness look good in the 36:49
chandelier light. [singing] You make 36:52
wrong feel right for one more night. My 36:53
teeny [music] tears, silver and gold. 36:56
Love gets cheap when the night gets 36:59
sold. If you leave me here with nothing 37:01
[music] but smoke, at least make it 37:03
beautiful 37:05
when you go. 37:07
>> [music] 37:08
>> You said your lover was waiting [music] 37:12
uptown, but you didn't move. You just 37:14
looked down. The olives sank in the 37:17
bottom of your drink like every [music] 37:19
bad thought you refused to think. I 37:21
asked if you were happy. You said, 37:23
"Define it." Then traced your nail 37:25
[singing] through the waterline. Your 37:27
perfume stayed where [music] your shadow 37:29
moved, like a slow confession in a 37:31
crowded room. And I knew [music] right 37:33
then in the velvet air you were not 37:36
mine. 37:39
But I 37:41
wanted you there. 37:42
Oh, my teeny tears. 37:45
Dangerous [music] grace, a little bit of 37:47
heaven on a guilty face. You make 37:49
sadness look good [music] in the 37:52
chandelier light. You make wrong feel 37:53
right for one more night. Martini 37:56
[music] tears, silver and gold. Love 37:58
gets cheap when the night gets old. 38:01
[music] If you leave me here with 38:03
nothing but smoke, at least make it 38:05
beautiful when you go. 38:07
>> Maybe glamour [music] is grief 38:15
with a better dress. 38:18
Maybe desire is just [music] 38:20
loneliness well pressed. 38:23
>> You don't need saving. 38:26
I don't need [music] truth. 38:29
Just one slow dance 38:32
in the ruins of you. 38:35
>> [music] 38:39
[music] 38:48
>> Martini tears. 38:58
>> [singing and music] 39:02
[music] 39:08
>> Martini tears. 39:10
Dangerous grace, a little [singing] bit 39:11
of heaven on a guilty [music] 39:13
face. You make sadness look good in the 39:15
chandelier light. You [singing] make 39:18
wrong feel right [music] for one more 39:19
night. Martini tears, 39:21
silver and gold. Love gets cheap when 39:23
the night gets old. If [music] you leave 39:26
me here with nothing but smoke, at least 39:28
make it beautiful 39:31
>> [music] 39:33
>> when you go. Martini tears in a crystal 39:35
glass. 39:38
You smile [music] like money, but it 39:42
never lasts. 39:44
By morning, you were only perfume 39:47
[singing and music] 39:50
and air. 39:51
And one more ghost in a velvet [singing] 39:53
chair. 39:57

Lyrics & Translation

[English]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> I'm sorry to with the flickering sign,
bottle [singing] of red
>> [music]
>> and a heart out of time.
You undid [singing] your hair and you
undid [music] me, too.
Hotel Saturn in the night,
>> [music]
>> paint it blue.
>> [music]
>> The ice machine hums [music]
down the end of the hall.
We don't say much. We don't say [music]
it at all.
You show the moonlight
a cigarette [music]
glow.
Some kind of love we're [music] not
going to know.
Hotel Saturn,
lost in your orbit.
Beautiful gravity, [music]
[singing] baby, I want it.
Pull me [music] apart in the dark in the
heat.
We're two falling stars
>> [music]
>> on a dead end street.
Check out it's noon,
but [music and singing] we're already
gone.
You'll be a stranger by the time of the
dawn, but [music and singing] God, for
these hours, you're all that I need.
A dangerous woman, a sweet little plea.
Hotel [music] Saturn,
lost in your
orbit, a beautiful gravity. Baby, I want
it.
Pull me [music] apart in the dark and
the heat.
We're two falling stars
on a dead-end street.
>> [music]
>> In the morning,
we'll [music] scatter us then
back to the lives we were
>> [music and singing]
>> drowning in.
But tonight, there's just you and this
dim [music]
little room and the slow
lovely ache of [singing] two souls.
>> [music]
>> Hotel Saturn,
fading [singing]
>> [music]
>> to light.
You [music] were the best wrong
I did right.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Down to [music] my last one. Down to my
last time you and this habit. You're
both out of time.
I [music] light it up slow on the
[singing] edge of the bed.
Watching the smoke spell
the things left [music] unsaid.
>> [music]
>> You sleep like an angel [singing]
[music] that fell from the rent.
A beautiful borrower
>> [singing]
>> I never could lend. [music]
The window cracked open and I creep in.
I count all my [music] losses against
your warm skin.
This is my [music] last cigarette.
This is my last regret. [music]
The slowest way I know to forget,
[music]
but you stir
in the dark and you pull me back down
and I light another. [music and singing]
I'm not leaving town.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Mornings are stranger.
I keep at the [singing] door.
You [music] ask me to stay and I want
[singing]
nothing more.
A dangerous woman, a permanent ache.
The kind [music]
of mistake that I'd happily make. This
is [music] my last cigarette.
This is my last regret.
The slowest [music] way I know to
forget. But you stare in the dark and
you [music] pull me back down.
>> [singing]
>> And I light up [music] another.
I'm not leaving town.
>> [music]
[music]
>> One more drag, one more light,
one more [singing] reason I won't say
goodbye. [music] The ashtrays are
graveyard of all my resolve and you're
the one problem I'll never
[music and singing] solve.
Last [music] cigarette.
Burning low.
>> [music]
>> The smoke and the woman
I'll never let go.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> 3:00 in the morning, parked under a
tree.
Just [music] me in the shadow [singing]
of who I should be.
The engine is off, [music] but the
heater [singing] is on.
Waiting around for [music]
a miserable dawn.
I reach in my pocket, I pull out
[music and singing] the pack.
There's only one left. There is no going
back.
This cigarette [music] strong, it's
slowing my heart, tearing this cynical
armor apart.
I stare [music] at the dashboard, I
stare at the night.
Losing my will to [music] continue the
fight.
I'm taking the last drag, [music]
holding it deep.
A dirty old secret I'm trying [music] to
keep.
Breathing you out in a cloud of gray
smoke.
A tragedy [music] disguised as a
terrible joke.
The nicotine rushes up
heating my veins.
>> [music]
>> Leaving me empty
and cold in this place.
I'm letting you go
with the flick of an ash.
A slow motion [music] beautiful romantic
crash.
>> [music]
>> Your voice on my voicemail, a ghost in
the phone.
Reminding [music] me why
I am better alone. [singing]
We were [music] a poison
that [singing] tasted so sweet.
A mutual destruction [music]
we couldn't defeat.
The [music] red cherry burns in the dark
of the car.
A tiny and fading
and meaningless [music]
star.
A sluggish drum beat is slowing my
heart, tearing this cynical [music]
armor apart.
I stare at the dashboard. [music]
I stare at the night.
Losing [music] my will to continue the
fight.
I'm taking [music] the last drag,
holding it deep.
A dirty old secret [music] I'm trying to
keep.
Breathing you out in a cloud of gray
smoke.
A tragedy disguised as a
terrible joke. [music]
The nicotine rushes up,
leaving me braced,
leaving me empty [music]
and cold in this place.
I'm letting you go
with the
>> [music]
>> flick of an ash.
A slow-motion, beautiful, romantic
crash.
>> [music]
>> Inhale.
Exhale.
Let the memory dissolve.
Let the [music] night take over.
>> [music]
>> I'm taking the last drag,
>> [music]
>> holding it deep.
A dirty old secret I'm [music] trying to
keep.
Breathing you out
in a cloud of gray smoke.
>> [music]
>> A tragedy disguised as a terrible joke.
>> [music]
>> The last drag.
It's finally over. [music]
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> You left lipstick on the exit sign.
[music]
Like you said goodbye needed
>> [music and singing]
>> a little red wine.
Smoking your hair, trouble in your
>> [music]
>> eyes.
I should have known better, but I liked
liked the lies.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> The basement bar was breathing slow,
blue light dripping on the floor [music]
below. You danced like the world had
done you wrong, and I was just drunk
enough to [music] sing along. You said,
"Don't ask me where I've been." With a
little black dress and a tired grin, I
said, "Don't worry, I'm damaged, [music]
too." You smiled like that was beautiful
news, and the baseline crawled through
the walls like sin.
>> [music]
>> You touched my hand and the room
[singing] caved in.
I don't want safe,
>> [music]
>> I want your kind of raw.
The kind that stains me when the night
is gone.
Kiss [music] me where the lonely people
hide
under the glow
of the exit [music] sign.
I I clean,
I want [music] smoke and wine.
Your red mouth ruining my peace of mind.
Leave me with [music] a memory I can't
deny.
>> Lipstick on the exit sign.
Outside the city had a wet, black
[music] shine like a movie scene with no
clear [singing] line between romance and
a bad mistake between being in love and
[music] staying away. You caught a cab
and called it off, lit one more
cigarette and softly coughed [music] and
said, "Baby, I'm no good for you." I
said, "That's the oldest thing that's
ever been true." And your phone lit up
with [music] someone else's name.
You turned it down like you weren't
ashamed.
I don't want safe, [music]
I want your kind of wrong.
The kind that saves me [music] when the
night is gone.
Kiss me where the lonely [music] people
hide
under the glow
of the [music] exit sign.
>> I don't [music] want clean,
I want smoke and wine.
Your red mouth ruining [music] my peace
of mind.
Leave me with a memory [music] I can't
deny.
Lipstick on the exit sign.
>> [music]
>> We're too old to call it magic, too
young to call it dead.
>> [music]
>> Too broke to buy forgiveness, too proud
to beg instead. [music]
[singing] You were laughing in the
rainfall,
I was falling in the dark. some people
leave [music] a number.
Some people leave [singing] a mark.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> I don't want
safe. [music]
I want your kind of wrong.
The kind that [music] stains me when the
night is gone.
Kiss [music] me where the lonely people
hide.
Under the glow
of the [music] exit sign.
I don't want clean.
I want smoke and [music] wine.
Your red mouth the ruin in my peace of
mind.
Leave me with a memory [music]
I can't deny.
Lipstick [music] on the exit sign. You
left lipstick on the exit sign.
>> [music]
>> Like even goodbye
needed a little red wine.
I watched you vanish [music] in the taxi
light.
Red mouth, [music] black night, exit
sign.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Drunk
to the feeling dies.
>> [music]
>> Past the motels [music]
and the liquor signs.
Your head on the window,
>> [music]
>> your eyes on the moon.
We left the city like a bad afternoon.
[singing]
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> The highway shivered in the gasoline
rain.
>> [music]
>> You said my name like you were tasting
pain. I kept both hands on the wheel too
tight, trying not to love you in the
dashboard light. You had a cigarette
behind your ear,
>> [music]
>> a silver flask in a quiet fear. Said if
I fall asleep, don't take me home. I
said, [music] "Baby, nobody should wake
up alone [singing] in the white lines
fade.
And the darkest wild, [music]
your silence moves
like a ghost inside. So, we drive
till the feeling dies.
Till the old hurt
loses its appetite. [music]
Till your heartbreak falls behind.
>> [music]
>> Like a town
we never liked.
Drive till
the morning comes. Till the bad luck
comes undone. If [music] we can't be
saved tonight,
we can still outrun the light.
You told me about him near the county
line.
How he made love feel like doing time.
[music] I told you about her by the exit
ramp. How she left my heart like a
burned out lamp. We laughed at the
things that almost [music] killed us.
Like grown up love we tried to build us
out of unpaid bills and motel sheets.
Out of pretty lies and broken sleep.
And the radio [music] cried
in a minor key.
You looked half
alive
and close to
dying.
Till the feeling dies.
Till the old hurt loses its appetite.
[music]
Till your heartbreak
falls behind.
Like [music] a town
we never liked.
Drive [music] till the morning comes.
Till the bad love comes undone. If we
can't be saved tonight,
we can still [music] out run the light.
>> [music]
>> Maybe we're not running. [music]
Maybe we're just learning how to
breathe.
>> [music]
>> Maybe all this darkness [music]
is the only honest place to be.
Put your hand in my jacket.
>> [music]
>> Close your eyes
if [music] you need.
There's no heaven on this highway.
[music]
But there's a little peace.
>> [music]
>> So we [music] drive
till the feeling dies.
Till the old hurt loses its [music]
sight of the time.
Till your heartbreak falls behind.
Like a town
we [music] never liked.
Drive till the morning comes. Till the
bad [music] love comes undone. If we
can't be safe tonight,
we can still outrun [music]
the light.
Drive
till the feeling dies.
Past the motels and
>> [music and singing]
>> the liquor signs.
Your head on the window.
Your
eyes on the moon.
I still miss that road with you.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> She [music] brought me flowers from a
liquor store.
Roses wrapped in receipts on the
bathroom floor. She said, [music]
"Love is prettier when it's half
destroyed." Then kissed me [music] like
a habit she could
still avoid.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> The club was closing, the streets were
wet. Her mascara ran like a dark regret.
[music] She held her heels in her right
hand and called every taxi a promised
land. We walked past windows full
[music] of better lives, clean white
kitchens and faithful wives. She said,
"Do you ever feel left outside?" [music]
I said, "Only when I'm trying to
survive." She laughed so softly,
like breaking glass. Some women are
like a beautiful [music]
crash.
Blackout
>> [music]
>> bouquet in my shaking hands.
Petals [music]
falling with the night expanding.
She was wind and thunder, silk and
shame.
I forgot myself
when she said my name.
>> [music]
>> Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong.
Slow dance dying to a trip hop song. If
she was poison, I drank it sweet.
Now every bar
>> [music]
>> smells like [singing] her
to me.
>> [music]
>> She had a scar that she never explained.
A silver ring and a fake last name.
[music] She said, "Don't make me into
something good." I said, "Baby, I don't
think I could." The morning found us on
the screenless [music] couch with
cigarette burns in the coffee clouds.
She watched the sunlight touch the floor
like it was asking [music] her for more.
I knew she'd leave
before she moved.
[music] Some people teach you
what you can't undo.
Blackout [music] bouquet in my shaking
hands.
Petals falling with the night expense.
[music]
She was wild and thunder, silk and
[music] shame.
I forgot myself
when she said my name.
Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong. Slow
dancing to a cheap pop [music] song. If
she was poison, I'd drink it sweet.
Now every bar
>> [music]
>> smells like hurting me.
There are girls [music] who want saving.
There are girls who want [singing] gold.
She wanted one dark [music] evening
where she didn't feel cold.
There are men who want heaven.
There are men who want truth. [music]
I wanted one clean minute inside the
ruin of you. Don't call it tragic.
>> [music]
>> Don't call it fate.
Some flowers bloom
when it's already too late.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> Blackout bouquet in [music] my shaking
hands.
Petals falling with the night expanding.
>> [music]
>> She was lightning
and thunder, still
>> [music]
>> can't shake.
I forgot myself
when she said
my name.
Blackout
>> [music]
>> bouquet,
love gone wrong. Slow dance dying to a
trip hop song. [music] If she was
poison, I'd drink it sweet.
Now every bar
>> [music]
>> smells like her to me.
She bought me flowers from a liquor
store. [music]
Roses wrapped
in receipts on the bathroom [music]
floor. Blackout bouquet [singing]
will get them blue.
>> [music]
>> Some nights die,
but not in you.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Love is a low light,
>> [music]
>> not a sunrise.
It shows the dust [music] in your
beautiful lies.
It makes the room feel softer [singing]
than it is
and leaves its bruises when nobody
looks.
>> [music]
[music]
>> You were standing by the record player,
[music]
barefoot drunk saying one more prayer
for [singing] every man who tried to
make you stay, for every woman you
became the getaway. The roads [music]
was crying through the walls. Someone
left in the upstairs hall. You said,
"I'm not as cold as I pretend." I said,
"I'm not as strong as I defend." [music]
In the shadows then,
in the city side,
you touched [music] my face
like an alibi.
Love is a low light, a slow knife, a
cigarette glowing in a bad [music]
night.
Love [music] is a low light, a sweet
lie, a little bit of heaven [music] with
a wrong side.
Hold me like the damage isn't [music]
real.
Kiss me till there's nothing left to
feel.
Love
is a low [music] light.
Baby, we look good inside it.
>> [music]
>> You told me secrets with your eyes half
shut, [music]
all the places where the world got
rough. I didn't fix you, I just [music]
listened
Sometimes that's the closest thing to
hope. The bottle emptied, the room got
still. [music] We heard the traffic
dragging up the hill. You said, "If I
leave, don't [music] follow me." I said,
"If you call, don't promise anything
because we both know
how the ending goes. [singing and music]
You'll become smoke.
I'll become alone.
Love is [music] a lowlife, slow life,
cigarette glowing in a bad light.
[singing]
>> [music]
>> Love is a lowlife, sweet life, a little
bit of heaven [music] with a wrong side.
Hold me like [music] a damn religion
real. Kiss me till there's nothing left
to feel.
Love is a lowlife.
And baby, we look good inside it.
>> [music]
>> There are rooms we never leave.
>> [music]
>> There are names we never lose. [singing]
There are people we survived and [music]
still compare everyone to.
If this is all we get,
>> [music]
>> let it ache, let it shine.
I don't need it clean.
I just need it mine.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Love is a lowlife, slow life,
cigarette [music] glowing in a bad
light.
>> [music]
>> Love is a low light, sweet life.
A little bit of heaven with a wrong
side.
>> [music]
>> Hold me like the damage isn't real. Kiss
me till there's nothing left to feel.
Love is a low light.
Baby, we look good inside it.
Love is low light.
Not a sunrise.
It [music] shows the truth in your
beautiful lies.
If I had to lose, I'd lose like this.
With your smoke in the room and your
ghost
on my
lips.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> Welcome to low rent paradise. [singing]
[music]
Where the pretty girls smoke in the
lonely men lie.
>> [music]
>> Where the champagne's warm and the
mirror is cool. [singing]
>> [music]
>> And everybody's breaking
some beautiful
>> [music]
[music]
>> There's a motel pool full of cigarette
stars.
>> [music]
>> A broken payphone by the vending
machines.
You came [music] downstairs with your
hair undone,
looking like trouble
from [music] a forgotten dream.
You said this town breaks the soft ones
[music] first,
then smiled like you knew exactly where
it hurt.
I said, "I'm not soft, I just bleed
inside."
You said, "Baby, [music]
that's soft with pride."
And the past [music] drifted like smoke
in the room.
You moved beside me
>> [music]
>> like elegant doom.
>> Lower
end paradise.
>> [music]
>> We look so good under damaged lights.
Hold me close where the good girls don't
[music] go. Kiss me slow in the
afterglow.
>> Lower
end paradise.
>> No one gets clean, no one thinks twice.
If love is a fall, let it feel this
nice. [music] Down in the lower end
paradise.
>> [music]
>> Your sunglasses sat on the Bible drawer.
Your lipstick marked [music] the
bathroom door. You talked about leaving
like it was a song, something you meant
but not for long. I watched you pour gin
into [music] lemonade. You said, "I like
men who already know." And I said, "I
like women [music] who scare me enough."
You said, "That isn't love, but it's
close enough." And the rain
>> [music]
>> came down on the parking lot
like the sky confessed what we could
not.
>> Lower
end paradise.
>> We look so good under damaged [music]
lights. Hold me close where the good
girls don't go. Kiss me in the
afterglow.
>> Lower end paradise. Lower in paradise.
[music]
>> No one gets clean. No one thinks twice.
If love is a fall, let it feel this
nice. Down in lower in paradise.
>> [music]
>> Maybe we're sinners. [music] Maybe we're
tired. Maybe the whole damn world is
built on desire.
Maybe the morning [music]
will make us ashamed.
But tonight you're an angel
>> [music]
>> with a fake last name.
Leave me a number
you'll never call.
Leave me [music] a memory
bigger than a song.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Bigger than a song.
>> [music]
>> Lower
in paradise.
We look so good under damaged [music]
lights. Hold me close where the good
girls don't go. Kiss me slow in the
afterglow.
>> [music]
>> Lower in paradise. No one gets clean. No
one thinks twice. If love is a fall, let
it feel this nice. Down in lower in
paradise.
Welcome to lower in
paradise.
Where the pretty girls smoke and the
lonely men lie.
>> [music]
>> You will be gone the morning light.
But you made hell look nice.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Streetlights burn through the rainy
glass.
>> [music]
>> Stepping heavily
>> [singing]
>> on the midnight gas.
There's a smudge of red
on the dashboard tray
from the dangerous [music] girl who
walked away.
I rolled down the window, let the cold
[music] wind blow. [singing] Got a tank
full of gas and nowhere to go. The
radio's dead, just the engine's hum,
waiting for the painful morning to come.
>> [music]
>> A pack of Marlboros sitting by my side,
the only girlfriend [music] on this
empty ride. I strike a match, and I
breathe it in deep, a toxic lullaby when
I cannot sleep.
Oh, it's a lonely drive
>> [music]
>> through the dead of night,
where the neon signs
are the only light.
>> [music]
>> You left your lipstick,
and you left a scar.
A beautiful
inside my car. [music]
I'm intoxicated by the thought of you. A
fateful [music] attraction I can't undo.
We played with fire in a world of sin.
Now [music] I'm just a loser who let you
in.
>> [music]
>> The whiskey has worn off.
[music and singing] The numbness fades.
I'm driving straight into the darkest
shades. I remember your hands. [music] I
remember your [singing] dress. A
masterpiece painted in gorgeous
distress. [music] You told me you loved
me with a cynical smile. I knew it was
fake but I stayed for a while because in
this plastic beautiful world, you were
my [music] favorite dangerous girl. Pack
them up or sit them by my side. [music]
The only loyal friend on this empty
ride. I strike a match and I breathe it
in deep.
A toxic lullaby when I cannot sleep.
Oh,
it's a lonely drive
through the air all night [music]
where the neon [singing] signs
are the only [music] light.
You left your lipstick
and you left [music] a scar.
A beautiful ghost
inside my car.
I'm intoxicated by the thought of you. A
fateful [music]
attraction I can't undo. We played with
fire in a world of sin. Now I'm just a
loser who let you in.
>> [music]
>> Dark at the end of the sea.
The scent of your perfume is
suffocating. [music]
I'm addicted to the pain.
>> Oh,
it's a lonely drive.
The end of night.
>> [music]
>> With [singing] neon signs.
Oh, the only light.
You left your lipstick.
And you left a scar. [music]
A beautiful ghost.
Inside my [music] car.
Just an empty road.
>> [music]
>> And a fading word stained
faith. [music]
Black.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Martini tears in the crystal glass.
You smile like money, but it never
lasts.
Black satin slipping off your shoulder
blade.
>> [music]
>> You make ruin look custom made.
>> [music]
[music]
>> The lounge was full of beautiful ghosts.
All hungry eyes [music] and expensive
clothes.
You sat alone where the blue lights
fell.
>> [music]
>> Like a rich girl waiting outside of
hell.
>> [music]
>> I said, "You look like someone hard to
please." You said, "You look like
someone on his knees."
I laughed because the truth [music] came
quick. Some women know exactly where to
stick the knife in.
And the jazz went crooked and the room
turned [music] slow. He said, "Don't get
attached."
Like I didn't [singing] know.
Martini [music] tears, dangerous grace,
a little bit of heaven on a guilty face.
You make sadness look good in the
chandelier [music and singing] light.
You make wrong feel right for one more
night. Martini tears, [music] silver and
cold. Love gets cheap when the night
gets old. If you leave me here with
nothing but [music] smoke, at least make
it beautiful [singing]
when you go.
>> [music]
>> You said your lover was waiting uptown,
but you didn't [music] move. You just
looked down. The olives sank in the
bottom of your drink like every bad
thought you refused to think. I asked
[music] if you were happy. You said,
"Define it." Then traced your nail
through the [singing] water line. Your
perfume stayed where your shadow moved
like a slow confession in a crowded
[music] room.
And I knew [singing] right then in the
velvet air you were not mine. [music]
But I
wanted you there.
Martini tears, dangerous grace, [music]
a little bit of heaven on a guilty face.
You make sadness look good in the
chandelier light. You make wrong feel
right for one more night. Martini
[music] tears, silver and cold. Love
gets cheap when the night gets old.
[music] If you leave me here with
nothing but smoke, at least make it
beautiful
when you go.
>> [music]
>> Maybe glamour is grief
with a better dress.
Maybe desire is just loneliness [music]
well pressed.
You don't need saving.
I don't need truth. [music]
Just one slow dance
in the ruins of you.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Martini tears.
Martini tears.
>> [music and singing]
>> Martini tears.
Martini tears.
Dangerous [music] grace, a little bit
[singing] of heaven on a guilty face.
You make sadness look good in the
chandelier [music]
light. You make wrong feel right for one
more night, martini tears.
>> [music]
>> You're silver and cold. Love gets cheap
when the night gets old. If you leave me
here with nothing but smoke, at least
make it beautiful
>> [music]
>> when you go.
Martini tears in a crystal glass.
You smile like [music and singing]
money, but it never lasts.
By morning, you were only [music]
perfume and air.
And one more ghost in a velvet
chair.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Answered it too [music and singing]
with a flickering sand.
Bottle of red
in a heart of
>> [music]
>> town.
You undid [singing] your hair and you
undid me, [music] too.
Hotel satin in the
>> [music and singing]
>> night.
Painted blue.
>> [music]
>> The ice machine hums down [music] the
end of the hall.
We don't say much. We don't say it at
all.
>> [music]
>> Your shoulder the moonlight,
a cigarette glow.
Some kind [music] of love
we're not
going to know.
>> [music]
>> Hotel satin, lost in your orbit.
A beautiful [music] gravity, baby, I
want it.
Pull [music] me apart in the dark, in
the heat.
We're two fallen stars.
On a
street.
>> [music]
>> Check out [music] is noon,
>> [singing]
>> but we're already gone.
You'll be [music] a stranger by the time
of [singing] the dawn, but God, for
these [music] hours, you're all that I
need.
A dangerous woman, a sweet little plea.
Hotel [music and singing]
Saturn, lost in your orbit. A beautiful
gravity, baby, I want it.
>> [music]
>> Pull me apart in the dark and the heat.
>> [music]
>> We're two falling stars
>> [music]
>> on a dead-end street.
>> [music]
>> In the morning,
we'll scatter [music] us thin
back to the lives we were [music]
drowning in.
But tonight, there's just you and this
dim [music] little room and the slow
lovely ache of two souls.
>> [music]
>> Hotel Saturn,
>> [music]
>> fading
to light.
>> [music]
>> You were the best wrong
I did right.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Down to my last one, down [music] to my
last dime.
You and this habit, [music]
you're both out of time.
I light it up slow on the edge of the
bed
>> [music]
>> watching smoke spell the things left
unsaid.
>> [music]
>> You sleep like an angel [music] that
fell from the rift.
A beautiful borrower
>> [singing]
>> I never could [music] lend.
The window cracked open and I creep
[music] in in.
I count all my losses against your warm
skin.
This is my last cigarette.
>> [music]
>> This is my
regret.
The slowest way I know to forget,
[music and singing] but you stir
in the dark and you pull me back
[singing] down and I light up another.
I'm not leaving town.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Morning's a stranger
I keep at the door.
You ask me to stay [music]
and I want [singing] nothing more.
A dangerous woman, a [music] permanent
ache.
The kind of mistake that I'd happily
make. This [music] is my last cigarette.
This is my [singing] last regret.
>> [music]
>> The slowest way I know to forget, but
you stir
in the dark and [music] you pull me back
down and I light up another.
[music and singing]
I'm not leaving town.
>> [music]
[music]
>> One more [music] drag, one more light.
One [singing] more reason I won't say
goodbye. The ashtray's a graveyard of
all my resolve and you're the one
problem I'll never solve.
>> [music]
>> Last cigarette.
>> [music]
>> Burning low.
The smoke [music]
and the woman
I'll never let go.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> 3:00 in the morning, parked under a
tree.
Just me [music] in the shadow
of who I should be.
The [music] engine is off, but the
heater [singing] is on.
Waiting around for [music] a miserable
dawn.
I reach in my pocket,
I [music] pull out the pack.
There's only one left, there
is no going [music] back.
The cigarette strong, it's slowing my
heart, [music] tearing this cynical
armor apart.
>> [music]
>> I stare at the dashboard. I stare at the
night.
Losing my will [music]
to continue the fight.
I'm taking the last drag, [music]
holding it deep.
A dirty old secret
I'm trying to [music] keep.
Breathing you out in a cloud of gray
smoke.
>> [music]
>> A tragedy disguised as a terrible joke.
The nicotine rushes up,
heating my brain,
leaving me empty
and cold in this place.
I'm letting you go
with the flick of an ash.
A slow-motion beautiful romantic crash.
Your voice on my [music] voicemail, a
ghost in the phone,
reminding [singing] me why
>> [music]
>> I am better alone.
We were a poison
that tasted so sweet.
>> [music]
>> A mutual destruction
we couldn't defeat.
The red cherry burns in the dark of the
car. [music]
A tiny and fading
meaningless star.
>> [music]
>> A sluggish drumbeat is slowing my heart,
tearing this cynical armor apart.
I stare at the dashboard. I [music]
stare at the night.
Losing my will to continue the fight.
I'm taking the [music] last drag,
holding it deep.
A dirty old secret I'm [music] trying to
keep.
Breathing you out in a crowd of gray
smoke. [music]
A tragedy disguised as a terrible joke.
>> [music]
>> The nicotine rushes up
fleeting bliss
leaving [music] me empty
and cold in this place.
I'm letting you go
with [music] the flick of an ash.
A slow motion beautiful romantic crash.
>> [music]
>> Inhale.
Exhale.
Let the memory dissolve. [music]
Let the night take over.
>> [music]
>> I'm taking [music] the last drag,
holding it deep.
>> [music]
>> A dirty old secret
I'm trying to keep.
Breathing you [music] out
in a crowd [singing] of gray smoke.
A tragedy disguised [music] as a
terrible joke.
The last drag.
It's [music] finally over.
>> [music]
>> Mhm.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> You left lipstick on the exit sign.
Like even goodbye [music] needed
[singing]
a little red wine.
Smoking [music]
your hair, trouble in your eyes.
I should have known better, but [music]
I lied.
Like the lie.
>> [music]
[music]
>> The basement bar was breathing slow,
blue light dripping on the floor [music]
below. You danced like the world had
done you wrong, and I was just drunk
enough to sing along. You said, "Don't
ask me where I've been." With the little
[music] black dress and a tight grin.
And I said, "Don't worry, I'm damaged,
too." You smiled like that was beautiful
news, and [music] the baseline crawled
through the walls like sin.
You touched [music] my hand, and the
room caved in.
>> [music]
>> I don't want safe.
I want your kind of wrong.
The kind that stains [music] me when the
night is gone.
Kiss me where lonely people hide [music]
under the glow
of the exit sign.
>> [music]
>> I don't want clean,
I want smoke and wine.
Your red mouth is ruining my [music]
peace of mind.
Leave me with a memory I can't
deny.
>> [music]
>> Lipstick on the exit sign.
Outside the city [music] had a wet black
shine, like a movie scene with no clear
line between [music and singing] romance
and a bad mistake, between being loved
and staying awake. You called a cab and
called it off, lit one more [music]
cigarette and softly coughed and said,
"Baby, I'm no good for you." I said,
"That's the oldest thing that's ever
been true." And your phone lit up with
someone [music] else's name.
You turned it down like you weren't
ashamed.
>> [music]
>> I don't want safe,
I want your kind of wrong.
The kind that [music] stains me when the
night is gone.
Kiss me where the lonely [music]
people hide
under the glow
of the exit sign.
>> [music]
>> I don't want clean,
I want smoke and wine.
>> [music]
>> Your red mouth is ruining my peace of
mind.
Leave me with a memory [music]
I can't
deny.
Lipstick on the exit [music] sign.
>> [music]
>> We're too old to call it magic,
[singing]
too to call it deep.
Too broke to buy forgiveness. [music]
Too proud to beg instead. You were
laughing in the rainfall. [music] I was
falling in the dark. [singing]
Some people leave a number. [music]
Some people leave a mark.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> I don't want to say.
>> [music]
>> I want your kind of wrong.
The kind that stains me when the night
is gone. [music]
Kiss me where the lonely people hide.
Under the glow [music] of the exit sign.
I don't want [music] clean. I want smoke
and wine.
Your red mouth is ruining my
>> [music]
>> peace of mind.
Leave me with a memory I can't
deny.
>> Lipstick [music] on the exit sign. You
left lipstick on the exit sign.
Like giving goodbye
needed a little red wine. [music]
I watched you vanish in the taxi light.
>> [music]
>> Red mouth,
black night, exit sign.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Drive
till the feeling dies.
Past the motels [music]
and the liquor signs.
>> [music]
>> Your head on the window,
your eyes on the moon.
>> [music]
>> We left the city like a bad afternoon.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> The highway shivered under gasoline
rain. You said my name like you were
testing [music] pain. I kept [singing]
both hands on the wheel too tight,
trying not to love [music] you in the
dashboard light.
You had a cigarette behind your
[singing] ear,
a silver flask in the quiet field. Said
if I fall asleep, don't take me home.
[music] I said, "Baby, nobody should
wake up alone." And the white lines fade
[music]
in the darkest wild.
Your silence moves
>> [music]
>> like a ghost inside. So, we drive
>> [music]
>> till the feeling dies,
till the old hurt
loses [music] its appetite,
till your heartbreak
falls behind
like a town
we never lie.
Drive [music] till
the morning comes,
till the bad love comes undone. If we
can't be saved tonight,
we can still outrun the light.
>> [music]
>> You told me about him near the county
line,
how we made love feel like doing time. I
told [music] you about her by the exit
ramp, how she left my heart like a
burned out lamp. We laughed at the
things that almost killed us,
>> [music]
>> like growing up life had tried to build
us out of unpaid bills and motel sheets,
out of pretty lies and broken sleep.
And the radio cried
in a minor key.
You looked [music] half
alive
and close to
dying.
Till the feeling dies,
till the old hurt
loses its [music] appetite,
till your heartbreak
falls behind.
>> [music]
>> Like a town,
we never lie.
Drive till the morning comes, [music]
till the bad love comes undone. If we
can't be saved tonight,
we can still [music] outrun the light.
>> [music]
>> Maybe we're not running.
Maybe we're just learning how to
breathe.
>> [music]
>> Maybe all this darkness is the only
honest place to be. [music]
Put your hand in my jacket. [music]
Close your eyes
if you need. [music]
There's no heaven on this highway.
But there's [music] a little peace.
>> [music]
[music]
>> So we drive [music]
till the feeling dies.
Till the old heart
loses its appetite.
Till [music] your heartbreak
falls behind.
Like a town
we never left.
Drive till [music]
the morning comes. Till the bad love
comes undone. If we can't be safe
tonight, we can still outrun [music] the
light.
Drive
till the feeling dies.
Past [music] the motels and the liquor
signs.
Your head on the window. [singing]
[music]
Your
eyes on the moon.
I still miss that
road with you.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> She brought me [music] flowers from a
liquor store.
Roses wrapped in receipts on the
bathroom floor. She said, "Love is
prettier when it's half [music]
destroyed." Then kissed me like a habit
she could
still avoid. [music]
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> The club was closing, the streets were
wet. Her mascara [singing] ran like a
dark regret. She held her heels in her
[music] right hand and called every taxi
a promised land. We walked past windows
full of better lives,
clean white kitchens and faithful
[music]
wives. She said, "Do you ever feel left
outside?" I said, "Only when I'm trying
to survive." She laughed so softly
like breaking glass. Some women arrive
like a beautiful crash.
Blackout [music] bouquet in my shaking
hands.
>> [music]
>> Head tilts forward where the night
expands.
She was [music] wine and thunder, silk
and shame.
I forgot myself
>> [music]
>> when she said my name.
Blackout bouquet, love gone
wrong, slow dance [music] dying to a
trip hop song. If she was poison, I'd
drink it sweet.
Now every bar
smells [music]
like her to me.
She had a scar that she never [music]
explained, a silver ring and a fake last
name. She said, "Don't make me into
something good." I said, "Baby, [music]
I don't think I could." The morning
found us on the screenless couch with
cigarette burns in the coffee [music]
clouds. She watched the sunlight touch
the floor like it was asking her [music]
for more. I knew she'd leave
before she moved.
Some people teach you [music]
what you can't undo.
Blackout
>> [music]
>> bouquet from my shaking hands.
Petals [music] falling with the night
expanding.
She was white and thunder, silk and
[music] shade.
I forgot myself
when she said my name.
Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong. Slow
dance dying [music] to a trip hop song.
If she was poison, I'd drink it sweet.
>> [music]
>> Now every bar
smells like her to me.
>> [music]
>> There are girls who want saving.
There are girls who want gold.
She wanted one [music] dark evening
where she didn't [singing] feel cold.
There are men who want heaven.
>> [music]
>> There are men who want truth. I wanted
one clean minute inside [music]
the ruin of you. Don't call it tragic.
Don't call it
>> [music]
>> Some flowers bloom
when it's already too late.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Blackout [music] bouquet in my shaking
hands.
Petals falling where the night expects.
She was wine and thunder, [music] silk
and shame.
I forgot myself
when she said [music] my [singing] name.
Blackout bouquet, love gone wrong, slow
dance dying to a trip [music] hop song.
If she was poison, I drank it sweet.
Now every bar [music]
smells like [singing] her to me.
She bought [music] me flowers from a
liquor store.
Roses wrapped in [music and singing]
receipts on the bathroom floor. Blackout
bouquet
will get him blue.
>> [music]
>> Some nights die,
but not in you.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Love is a low light,
not a sunrise.
It shows the dust in your beautiful
lies.
It makes the room feel softer than it
is,
and leaves its bruises when nobody
looks.
>> [music]
[music]
>> You were standing by the record player,
barefoot, drunk, saying one more prayer
[music] for every man who tried to make
you stay, for every woman you became to
get away. The [music] roads were crying
through the walls. Someone left in the
upstairs hall. You said, "I'm not as
cold as I pretend." [music]
I said, "I'm not as strong as I
[singing] defend." And the shadows bend.
[music]
And the city sighed.
You touched my face
like an alibi.
Love is a low light, [music] a slow
knife, a cigarette glowing in the bad
night.
Love is [music] a low light, a sweet
lie, a little bit of heaven with a wrong
side.
Hold me like the damage isn't real.
Kiss [music] me till there's nothing
left to feel.
Love is a low light. [music]
Baby, we look inside it.
>> [music]
>> You told me secrets with your eyes half
[music] shut.
All the places where the world got
rough. I didn't fix you, I just listened
close. [music] Sometimes that's the
closest thing to hope. The bottle
emptied, the room got still. We heard
the traffic dragging up the hill. You
said, "If [music] I leave, don't follow
me." I said, "If you call, don't promise
anything." Because we both know
[music and singing]
how the ending goes.
You'll become [music and singing]
smoke.
I'll become alone.
>> Love is a low light, a slow night, a
cigarette [music] glowing in the bad
night.
Love [music]
is a low light, a sweet life, a little
bit of heaven with a wrong side.
Hold me like the damage
[music and singing] is unreal.
Kiss me till there's nothing left to
feel.
Love [music] is a low light.
>> And baby, we look good inside it.
>> [music]
>> There are rooms we never leave.
There are names we never lose. There are
people we survived and still compare
[music] everyone [singing] to.
If this is all we get,
let it ache, let it shine.
>> [music]
>> I don't need it clean.
I just need it mine.
>> [music]
[music]
>> Love is a lowlight, [music] slow night.
A cigarette glowing in a bad night.
>> [music]
>> Love is a lowlight, sweet lie. A little
bit of [music] heaven with a wrong side.
Hold me [music] like the damage isn't
real.
Kiss me till there's nothing left to
feel.
Love is a lowlight. [music]
And baby, we look good inside it.
>> [music]
>> Love is a lowlight.
Not a sunrise. [music and singing]
It shows the truth in your beautiful
lies.
If I had to lose, [music]
I'd lose like this.
With your smoke [music and singing] in
the room and your ghost on my lips.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
>> Welcome to low rent paradise.
Where the pretty girls [music] smoke and
the lonely men lie.
Where the champagne's warm and the
mirror is cool.
And everybody's breaking [music]
some beautiful rules.
>> [music]
[music]
>> There's a motel pool full of cigarette
stars.
A broken [music]
payphone by the vending machines.
You came downstairs [music]
with your hair undone.
Looking like trouble [music]
from a forgotten dream.
You said this town makes the soft ones
first.
Then smile like you knew exactly where
it hurt.
>> [music]
>> I said, "I'm not soft. [singing]
I just bleed inside."
You said, [music] "Baby,
that's soft with pride."
And the past drifted [music]
like smoke in the room.
You moved beside me like elegant doom.
Lower end paradise.
>> [music]
>> We look so good in the damaged lights.
Hold me close where the good girls go
cold. [music] Kiss me slow in the
afterglow.
>> Lower
end paradise.
>> No one [music] gets clean. No one thinks
twice. If love is a fall, let it feel
this nice. Down in the [music] lower end
paradise.
The sun lasted [music]
that on the Bible drawer. Your lipstick
marked the bathroom door. You talked
about leaving like it was a song.
Something you meant but not for [music]
long. I watched you pour gin into
lemonade. You said, "I like men who
already know pain." I said, "I like
women who scare me enough." You said,
[music] "That isn't love, but it's close
enough." And the rain came down on the
parking lot
like the sky. Confessed [music]
what we could not.
We look so good under damaged lights.
[music] Hold me close where the good
girls don't go. Kiss me slow in the
afterglow.
No one gets clean. No [music] one thinks
twice. If love is a fall, let it feel
this nice down in Lauren Paradise.
>> [music]
>> Maybe we're sinners. Maybe we're tired.
Maybe the whole damn world is built on
desire. [music]
Maybe the morning will make us ashamed.
But tonight [music] you're an angel
with a fake last name.
>> [music]
>> Leave me a number [singing]
you'll never call.
Leave me [music] a memory
bigger than a soul.
>> [music]
>> Bigger than [music] a soul.
>> [music]
>> Lauren
Paradise.
We look so good under damaged
[music and singing]
lights. Hold me close where the good
girls don't go. Kiss me slow in the
afterglow.
Lauren Paradise. No [music] one gets
clean. No one thinks twice. If love is a
fall, let it feel this nice down in
[music] Lauren Paradise.
Welcome [music] to low
paradise
>> [music]
>> where the pretty girls smoke and the
lonely men lie.
You were gone by the morning [music]
light
but you made hell look nice.
>> [music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
[music]
>> Streetlights burn through the rainy
glass. [music]
Stepping heavily on the midnight gas.
[music]
There's a smudge of red
on the dashboard tray
from the dangerous girl [music] who
walked away.
I rolled down the window let the cold
wind blow. Got a tank full of gas and
nowhere to go. The radio's [music]
dead just the engine's hum waiting for
the painful morning to come.
A pack of Marlboros sitting [music] by
my side the only loyal friend on this
empty ride. I strike a match and I
breathe it in deep but toxic lullaby
when I cannot sleep.
>> [screaming]
>> It's a A
through the end of night

>> where the neon signs
are the only [singing] light.
You left your lipstick [music]
and you left a scar.
A beautiful [music] ghost
inside my car.
I'm [music] intoxicated by the thought
of you. A fateful attraction I can't
undo. We played with fire in a world of
sin.
Now I'm just a loser who let you in.
The whiskey [music] is wearing off and
I'm in this [singing] phase. I'm driving
straight into the darkest shades. I
remember your hands. I remember your
dress. A masterpiece painted [music] in
gorgeous distress. You told me you loved
me with a cynical smile. I knew it was
fake but I stayed for a while [music]
because in this plastic beautiful world,
you were my favorite dangerous girl. A
pack of Marlboros sitting by my side,
the only loyal friend [music] on this
empty ride. I strike a match and I
breathe it [singing] in deep. A toxic
lullaby when I cannot sleep.
It's a lonely drive
>> [music]
>> through the end of night
where the neon signs
are the [music] only light.
You left your lipstick
and you left a [music] scar.
A beautiful ghost
inside my car. [music]
I'm intoxicated by the thought of you. A
fateful attraction I can't undo. [music]
We played with fire in a world of sin.
Now [singing] I'm just a loser who let
you in.
>> [music]

>> The scent of your perfume is
suffocating.

It's a lonely drive.
Ooh,
>> [music]

Ooh, with the neon shine.
Ooh,
you're the only light.
You left your lipstick.
And you left a scar. [music]
A beautiful ghost.
Inside my car.

And a fading [music] red stain.
Hey,
black.

[music]
[music]

You smile like money, but it never
lasts.
Black satin slipping off your shoulder
blade.
You make ruin look custom [music]
made.

[music]

All hungry eyes [music and singing] and
expensive clothes.
You sat alone [singing] where the blue
lights [music] fell.
Like a rich girl waiting outside of
hell.
>> [music]
>> I said, "You look like someone hard to
please." You said, "You look like
someone on his knees." [music]
I laughed because the truth came quick.
Some women know exactly where to stick
the knife in.
When the jazz [music] went crooked and
the room turned slow, you said, "Don't
get attached."
Like [music] I didn't know
my teeny tears. Dangerous grace, a
little bit of heaven on a guilty [music]
face. You make sadness look good in the
chandelier light. [singing] You make
wrong feel right for one more night. My
teeny [music] tears, silver and gold.
Love gets cheap when the night gets
sold. If you leave me here with nothing
[music] but smoke, at least make it
beautiful
when you go.
>> [music]
>> You said your lover was waiting [music]
uptown, but you didn't move. You just
looked down. The olives sank in the
bottom of your drink like every [music]
bad thought you refused to think. I
asked if you were happy. You said,
"Define it." Then traced your nail
[singing] through the waterline. Your
perfume stayed where [music] your shadow
moved, like a slow confession in a
crowded room. And I knew [music] right
then in the velvet air you were not
mine.
But I
wanted you there.
Oh, my teeny tears.
Dangerous [music] grace, a little bit of
heaven on a guilty face. You make
sadness look good [music] in the
chandelier light. You make wrong feel
right for one more night. Martini
[music] tears, silver and gold. Love
gets cheap when the night gets old.
[music] If you leave me here with
nothing but smoke, at least make it
beautiful when you go.

in the ruins of you.
