Elizabeth from Whitechapel Nights by Booze Radly

She arched her back
Down on the rails
In the town where we both met
She said close your eyes
And hold me tight
And we’ll pray that we’ll both die tonight

And we’ll make believe
That we’re in heaven
While we’re demons on the run
And we’ll paint the town in red and black
In the names our parents wanted

And I heard her voice
Down on the street
While I lay face down in my room
And she screamed my name
Inside my head
But I never saw her face

She said the city it moves
Like a beating heart
As the cars roll down on broad street
And the people their phones
They ring off the hook
But they never hear a damn thing

And so she drove me down
To the edge of the parkway
Where we fell in love
And we emptied the fuel out of her gas tank
And poured it on the ground
She said lets burn this fucking town down
