From Stephen’s Tumblr:
“as a small boy i loved the movie ‘point break’, from there i thought of how amazing it would be to have a bonnie and clyde relationship where we would rob banks and run from the law and everyone we knew. then i thought how asinine it would be to be in jail or dead… so i wrot...
[Verse 1]
This is a black market reformation
Keep your lips closed
And don't you ever give away our underground location
This is a black tie affair
Don't ever close your mouth
And we'll stay here until someone falls in their own snare
I had this planned all along, and I brought you here for this
So tie your mask on and pretend that nothing's wrong
[Chorus]
And I'll try to stay awake as long as I can
And I'll try to stay here, here with you
[Verse 2]
This is a black market reformation
How does it feel to be under the gun?
Last ones to laugh pull the trigger here on the run
You can hide the money, I'll mark an X
I'm above the law and you're the order
You make everything make sense
[Chorus]
And I'll try to stay awake as long as I can
And I'll try to stay here with you
[Bridge]
And I know Mexico is south of here
Beautiful this time of year
So let's jump the border when the coast is clear
Salvation waits at ocean shore
We won't have to lie no more
Don't you worry baby I'll be right here
[Chorus]
And I'll try to stay awake as long as I can
And I'll try to stay here with you
And I'll try to stay awake as long as I can
And I'll try to stay here with you
