wastin money on margaritas
waitin on a strangers call
lovers grinding in my mind
out the window rain just falls
then the dj's music fades
that femme fatale takes the stage
and rips me to another time
when i dared to live and almost die
just to be painted in the night
with red on drying lips
and love layed broken on her sleeve
she's workin' for the tips
i wanna make her believe
but i'm just falling and about to be lost
in this bordertown...
she wont know i exist cuz i cant pay the cost
but i cant pay the gas to not stick around
so I'm stuck in lonely limbo
in this quiet bordertown...
prayin' that she will dance for free
wanting lights to fade to blackness
wishing i'd just dissapear
so she'd be blind to all my pain
and not be scared of all my fears
then the femme fatale is gone
the dj plays another song
i drink to that to blur my sight
so though shes gone, i see the light
and she paints me in the dying night
with red on drying lips
and love layed broken on her sleeve
she's workin' for the tips
i wanna make her believe
but i'm just falling and about to be lost
in this bordertown...
she wont know i exist cuz i cant pay the cost
but i cant pay the gas to not stick around
so I'm stuck in lonely limbo
in this quiet bordertown...
prayin' that she will dance for free
the night is over
i walk the streets
left with nothing
but painted dreams
of red on drying lips
and love layed broken on her sleeve
she's workin' for the tips
i wanna make her believe
but i'm just falling and about to be lost
in this bordertown...
she wont know i exist cuz i cant pay the cost
but i cant pay the gas to not stick around
so I'm stuck in lonely limbo
in this quiet bordertown...
prayin' that she will dance for free
