[00:01.529] Alibi
[00:03.920] Brandi Carlile
[00:05.920] Written by Brandi Carlile,Phillip Hanseroth,Timothy Hanseroth
[00:10.155] I done some bad bad things
[00:12.478] The kind you don't bring up at confession
[00:14.890] Somewhere in my life, woah
[00:16.766] I took the wrong direction
[00:19.196] I swear on my soul
[00:21.026] I didn't want to hurt no one
[00:24.000] But I got no way to justify
[00:27.332] The things I done
[00:29.145] If you're good at telling lies
[00:31.547] You could be my alibi
[00:33.891] And I won't have to atone for my sins
[00:38.799] If you're good at telling lies
[00:41.114] You could be my alibi
[00:43.588] And I won't have to the fall for where I've been
[00:48.985] You done some bad bad things
[00:51.110] The kind that don't bare to mention
[00:53.370] Something inside you died
[00:56.048] Now you need some resurrection
[00:58.180] If you don't want to go down
[01:00.509] Just like the setting sun
[01:03.179] You got to find a way to reconcile
[01:06.332] The things you done
[01:08.156] If you're good at telling lies
[01:10.430] You could be my alibi
[01:12.849] And I won't have to atone for my sins
[01:17.749] If you're good at telling lies
[01:20.157] You could be my alibi
[01:22.577] And I won't have to the fall for where I've been
[01:47.314] If you're good at telling lies
[01:49.459] You could be my alibi
[01:51.891] And I won't have to the fall for where I've been
[02:02.361] I swear some people in the world
[02:04.521] They got no moral compass
[02:07.046] I know the wicked ones
[02:08.800] I feel them walk among us
[02:11.424] The hangman begs for mercy
[02:13.287] Only when his time has come
[02:16.013] Because he got no way to
[02:18.207] Rectify the things he done
[02:22.757] If you're good at telling lies
[02:24.979] You could be my alibi
[02:27.453] And I won't have to atone for my sins
[02:32.290] If you're good at telling lies
[02:34.797] You could be my alibi
[02:37.312] And I won't have to the fall for where I've been
[02:42.239] I won't take the fall for where I've been
[02:47.036] I won't take that fall for where I've been, no
