lyrics

Head back to the Alamo
Past the trees where the piñon grows
Are you the one who's traveling through?
Cracked shells that we disown
It smells of sulfur but feels like home
Are you the one who's stumbling through?

You've got the devil's eyes
But your kiss is sweeter than his
You've got the devil's eyes
But your kiss is sweeter than his
Intelligent and shy
Promising there's more than this
You've got the devil's eyes
But your kiss is sweeter than his

Pink, white, sheer blue
The foyer smells of paint and muddy shoes
Are you the one with nothing to lose?
These lights can levitate on command
I hold on with a steady hand
We're all collectors here in a collector's tomb

You've got the devil's eyes
But your kiss is sweeter than his
You've got the devil's eyes
Your kiss is sweeter than his
Intelligent and shy
There can’t be more than this
You've got the devil's eyes
Your kiss is sweeter than his

Something between a forest and a garden
We were drunk and fell asleep on the carpet
Life felt endless in that one room apartment
Heading back to the alamo
What looks abandoned
But feels like Home
