lyrics

Her blue dress hangs fast from the branch of the tree
Here in your heart she is all you can see
That dress falls to the side and she catches your eye
But you know it’s not the movies

A perfect red light shines just out of sight
A liar’s a liar I know that you’re right
There just one more thing, then you wont see him a again
And you’ll wish this was the movies

We both know we’re trapped in a place where dreams are made
And people say that miracles only happen up on the silver screen
Make sure they got your good side, good side, good side

She laughs at you, you curse her name it starts again and turns out the same
Sometimes when the lights are low, the sound is deaf and movement slow

The flickering glow, an empty seat, thousands of pages will never be seen
The twenty-seventh take to swear you’re in love, make sure they got your good side
You’ll see, you’ll swear, you’ll know it’s the movies

We both know we’re trapped in a place where dreams are made
And people say that miracles only happen up on the silver screen
Make sure they got your good side, good side, good side

I know this part isn’t in the script but we’ll rattle some cages anyway
Make sure they got your good side, good side, good side

Swirling guitars give way to indie drumbeats, and bombastic vocals trade off with gentle folk melodies in a way that is always unpredictable, yet somehow familiar. With a penchant for melodramatic crescendos, The Left Behinds are a band that refuses to be pinned down. ... more
