Alibi

BRANDI CARLILE · The Firewatcher's Daughter 2015 · Track 09 of 12

Written by Phil Hanseroth, Tim Hanseroth

I done some bad bad things The kind you don't bring up at confession Somewhere in my life, woah I took the wrong direction I swear on my soul I didn't want to hurt no one But I got no way to justify The things I done

If you're good at telling lies You could be my alibi And I won't have to atone for my sins If you're good at telling lies You could be my alibi And I won't have to the fall for where I've been

You done some bad bad things The kind that don't bare to mention Something inside you died Now you need some ressurrection If you don't want to go down Just like the setting sun You got to find a way to reconcile The things you done

If you're good at telling lies You could be my alibi And I won't have to atone for my sins If you're good at telling lies You could be my alibi And I won't have to the fall for where I've been

If you're good at telling lies You could be my alibi And I won't have to the fall for where I've been

I swear some people in the world They got no moral compass I know the wicked ones I feel them walk among us The hangman begs for mercy Only when his time has come Because he got no way to Rectify the things he done

If you're good at telling lies You could be my alibi And I won't have to atone for my sins If you're good at telling lies You could be my alibi And I won't have to the fall for where I've been

I won't take the fall for where I've been

I won't take that fall for where I've been, no
