Cox and the Riot Gentleman Alone Lyrics Cox And The Riot lyrics

The young boy tests the water
He can feel their burning eyes
The young girl takes her order
She steals the fading light

Now he takes her to a misery show
The last in line
They're stepping out the first to go
Into the night

Gentleman Alone, when you feel that you wronged her
Gentleman Alone, I can see there's a song there
Gentleman Alone, when you feel that it's your fear
Gentleman Alone, I can see that it's all clear (now)

The lies you think I taught her

I can see behind your eyes
Your memories have caught her
Still she fades beneath the light

Now he takes her to a misery show
The last in line
She's stepping out the first to go
Into the night

It's getting harder to control it all
It's getting harder to come down
It's getting harder to come home at all
It's getting closer to the ground
