DESCRIPTION:
This is an alternate version of the song 'Midnight City Bandit', recorded at the 1020 Building in Seattle, February 2013. Mike Bayer is on the drums.
Flames take down the house
and you were the lucky one
late night city bandit
you empty the safe and run
i failed
to see you had fallen down
under the weight
of a day long passed
in need of the girl in arms
overseas
saying you'll close up shop
you light up
kick it into drive
and tear through the mountain side
Street signs, city lights
and dogs on the hunt for thieves
get back, look out Jack
the pusher's got his eye on me
it's a cool summer night
and your head is begging for sleep
testify my brother
