Brian Fallon & Cincinnati Rail Tie - Scene of the Crime lyrics

Let's let the investigation start Let all the interrogation tear us apart Let's see you explain your fingerprints in the chalk and your meetings in the dark And let's unveil your greatest alibi As I watch you return to the scene of the crime Let's ask all your witnesses Who will swear that you were somewhere else that night And I will lie awake and my eyes won't rest I'll seek out the clues, may my efforts be blessed I'll follow the trails till I find all the proof that I need to relieve this ache from my chest And the enemies I've gained will plot their revenge They'll plan out a path with a price on my head As you point your pretty finger at my evidence to blow me away And know, I never wanted this We both deserve "the flames," And if they dusted deep enough They'd find every last one of our names But remember it's just me As you flee the scene of the crime And the officers will smile as your gypsy eyes persuade the trial As the prosecution rests just because it began to cramp your style And the jury, found hung in the room Heavy with the trail of your perfume And a wink in your eyes that says, "Boy, I will be coming for you soon" And your heart will lie to you...as you flee the scene of the crime
