Save Us Sarah - Smokey Brights

Sarah’s been here for a while

She’s the city’s abandoned child

Black denim studded star

Faded tattoos on her arms

She says, «Old punks never die

Still got the band, still doing all right»

Says, «I don’t have to be polite

To some kid who moved here last night»

Save us, Sarah

Nobody plays like you

Turn it up loud

And break some hearts now

Do what you came to do

Sharing stories, sharing cigarettes

In the neon glow after Sarah’s set

While our city disappears

Still got that ringing in our ears

She says, «Old punks never die»

Laughing smoke into the night

«They ain’t knocked this place down yet

Still got time for new regrets»

Save us, Sarah

Nobody plays like you

Turn it up loud

And break some hearts now

Do what you came to do

Save us, Sarah

Nobody plays like you

Kick my beer over on the bartop

Playing guitar in your torn-up shoes
