letra de blacklight - saturnine sighs

[intro dialogue]
“hey, it’s me. are you ready?”
“i’m ready.”
“rita’s diner, 2am?”
“that’s right.”
“it’s gonna look like a robbery, like you asked. you gotta know, once i’m on the hunt…that’s it. there’s no escape. if we’re doing this, i need to know you’re in 100 percent.”
“i’m in. 100 percent.”
“i gotta admit. i’ve never done something like this before. it’s not every day that somebody orders a hit on themselves.”
“i understand it’s a little unusual. last night this girl jumped out of her apartmеnt. splattered all over thе pavement. i wish i had the guts to do it like that. but i don’t. that’s why i need you.”
“i don’t need to know your life story. it’s easier if i don’t.”
“okay. just know, that even if i scream, even if i resist, even if i beg for you to call it off, you pull the trigger. got it?”
“don’t worry. you’ll never see me coming.”

[verse 1]
fingers tapping on the dash
my final cigarette burns
my thigh’s collecting ash

from the fluorescent glow
of the diner’s sign
a long shadow

maybe i’m still on the fence
heart is racing
i could die just from suspense
the hitman must be near
no escape
only fear

[chorus]
i can’t control myself
there’s something wrong with me
you crave the sun when your mind is
cast in blacklight
soaked in blacklight

i hope for something else
so ambivalent
so torn between
desire’s a b-tch when your mind is
cast in blacklight
soaked in blacklight

[verse 2]
i’m growing tired of the blood
this ultraviolet, ultraviolent neon flood

like a rush of air
drift her way
stop and stare
i don’t know if i’ve got the guts
she sees me coming and
her fear is infectious

my record’s ten to none
no escape
pull the gun

[chorus]
i can’t control myself
there’s something wrong with me
you crave the sun when your mind is
cast in blacklight
soaked in blacklight

i hope for something else
so ambivalent
so torn between
desire’s a b-tch when your mind is
cast in blacklight
soaked in blacklight

[verse 3]
so i let down my forty-four
she looks me in the eyes
and opens the car door
i beg to call it off
head inside
let’s just talk

and we said

[chorus]
i can’t control myself
there’s something wrong with me
you crave the sun when your mind is
cast in blacklight
soaked in blacklight

i hope for something else
so ambivalent
so torn between
desire’s a b-tch when your mind is
cast in blacklight
soaked in blacklight

[bridge]
and i can’t run from myself
but how else can i break free?
i’ve got to be somebody

[coda]
oh i’ll be big
wait and see
won’t be the last
you hear of me
and in the dawn
blacklight’s gleam
glows in the past
far behind me

oh i’ll be big
wait and see
won’t be the last
you hear of me
and in the dawn
blacklight’s gleam
glows in the past
far behind me

[outro dialogue]
“what are you gonna do now?”
“i don’t know. what about you?”
“who knows. not this. but whatever it is you decide to do, do it well.”
“i will. they’ll never see me coming.”
