Roland Lives (better mix)

Now let me tell you something 
Before you state your case today 
Anyone in this broke down town 
Could see you're trouble from a mile away 
But I can't leave a puzzle alone 
And everyone's gotta get paid 

Babe you've been living out of nightclubs 
And they all miss your when you're gone 
Soon they say your stormy eyes turn to ice 
Sweet red wine lips to poison 
I lit your cigarette 
I cashed out on your con 

I can't let go of the chase 
Though the lights are going out 
Darkness hiding her face 

The case cracks and suddenly 
I move with the chaos 
spinning around me 

And i'm blacking out 

Don't touch me cause i'll blink 
Every missed clue is adding pain 
How many did you leave 
Mad in the thunder and falling rain 

Don't say a word your siren song 
Has me staring down a train 
If I'll escape this mystery 
I can't run to you again 

But I can't outrun it this time 
Unprepared by so many years 
Of passions and crimes 

I know just where this road leads 
Sideways rain falling around 
And right through me 

And I'm blacking out 

I'll see you in the black 
Down where the river meets the earth 
I'll see you soon now 
Unless you didn't get there first
