Trevor Sensor - Villains and Preachers lyrics

rate me

I'm tired of all the torches

The church bells breaking the dawn

I'm tired of all the nights

Stumblin' home alone and singing to the dog

The windows, they are laughing

And the moon is broken and old

Like businessmen who shot themselves

To escape their debts and the truth being told

So if you're lost in a sleepy town

Where the good girls go to church

Just damn all the villains and the preachers' words

I slept on a thousand couches, while Jeremy slept in cars

He was told America love him, but that's not the truth

And the truth is hard

So we spill our sins with cheap beer

In a town in search for a home

I saved a man from Killing himself

By damning the hells and all the unknown

When I drink, my tongue spitd fire

And everybody gets hurt

So damn all the villains and the preachers' words

I suffered a million bruises

The mothers refused to see

can't life just be like the 1950s

We see to believe on a silver screen

But the women, they don't like me

Or in the end they all disappear

They're off to marry nice rich men

Who will stain their pens year after year

So if suburbia has swallowed you

When the grass don't need the dirt

Just damn all the villains and the preachers' words

If you've roamed on for a million miles

And still can't find your worth

Just damn all the villains and the preacher's words
