Vigilantes of Love
Hard Luck and Heart Attack (Live at the Axiom)
[Spoken Intro]
This song is called "Hard Luck and Heart Attack."

[Verse 1]
Things clear for a moment
When you're coming off desolation
And Frisco's your appointment
You're like the way you were before
Trying to gaze East
Yeah, with no one to depend on
And the blisters on your feet
Yeah, from coming down the mountain

[Verse 2]
Your friends won't let you down
Yeah, but friends, they're not the refuge
You're tearing up the town
With a hip flask of red wine
Scrawling visions buzzed
In your five-and-dime notepad
Saving them just because
Those angels seem so sad

[Pre-Chorus]
A ticket from the coat-check girl
Her words and flesh are laughing
Taking down her number on that lipstick-stained napkin
[Chorus]
Sainthood for anyone
Yeah, who knows you lose it to save it
A prayer for everyone
Who's ever been out on the pavement
The sound inside of me
As we're falling through the crack
Of hard luck
(Hard luck)
And heart attack
(Heart attack)
Of hard luck
(Hard luck)
Yeah, and heart attack

[Verse 3]Of hard luck
(Hard luck)
And heart attack
(Heart attack)
Of hard luck
(Hard luck)
Yeah, and heart attack
Arms around me
When we're going through the ceiling
Service stations of the cross
Yeah, the doctors, they need healing
Things clear for a moment
When we're coming off desolation
Between nothing and the atonement
Well, it all bleeds behind your cadence
[Pre-Chorus]
A ticket from the coat-check girl
Her words and flesh are laughing
Taking down her number on that lipstick-stained napkin

[Chorus]
Sainthood for anyone
Yeah, who knows you lose it to save it
A prayer for everyone
Who's ever been out on the pavement
The sound inside of me
As we're falling through the cracks
Of hard luck
(Hard luck)
And heart attack
(Heart attack)
Of hard luck
(Hard luck)
Yeah, and heart attack
Of hard luck
(Hard luck)
Hard luck
(Hard luck)
Hard, hard luck
(Hard luck)
Yeah, and heart attack
