Sunset Marquis Lyrics - Courtney Love

Follow me back to the Sunset Marquis 

Lock ourselves into the room 

Gamble it all 

And lose it on me 

Until the sorry end 

Until it happens again 

and I can tell that we are never gonna be friends, 

and I can tell that you're lost, 

and I can tell that this is gonna have a bad end 

But baby, you weren't worth the cost 

'til I'm black and blue 

So cynical 

Baby how'd you get so resigned? 

I have walked through scorn and ridicule 

How did I not see the signs? 

Oh descend descend and go you must 

and walk your walk of shame 

but I will have my revenge 

Oh I will have my revenge 

face down in front of the Sunset Marquis 

you were the closest to God 

we can do all the things that no one believes 

people like us do, they haven't got a clue 

and i can tell this is some pleasure for my pain 

set the fires and I'll just pray 

And it all blurs down 

How cheaply 

and how fast you'd sell your soul 

That's the stupidest thing I have heard 

Oh how low can you go 

And I am not cripple any longer 

Oh I can dance again 

but I will have my revenge 

oh I will have my revenge 

lock ourselves into the sunset marquis 

set the room on fire 

play happy neighbors from bad families 

oh baby you could move 

you could light up the room 

but the light's gone obscene 

how you looked real to me 

And I can tell that you have come to burn me down 

and i am at your feet in ashes 

And this will end in tears with all lost and none found 

it's just a story you can cash in 

And no one knows where we go 

And I know that you don't care 

But you are the overseer 

Of the depths of my despair 

And it's glorious and dead 

And I know that you aren't there 

But you are the unfortunate 

You're the depths of my despair
