Into The Haze
Mystery Unveiled: A Tale of Intrigue in 'Into The Haze' by North by North
Lyrics
Driving through them haunts, love to see her play.
Driving through haunted places, enjoying watching her perform.
A cloak and a hat and a camera, but he still can't get a name.
A mysterious person with a cloak, hat, and camera, but unidentified.
Day by day he's a typical man, you see a gumshoe night by night.
Describing a man leading a dual life as an ordinary person during the day and a detective at night.
The client will pay an inordinate sum if he get's some info right.
A client is willing to pay a significant amount for accurate information.
Shot rings out on Jefferson, near the Late Night Books n' Wine.
A gunshot near a bookstore; drugs are being sold by some boys.
Boys are selling literature, you know the powdered kind.
Reference to the illegal drug trade disguised as literature.
Heartbeat is racing but you don't know how,
Feeling intense anxiety without knowing the cause.
You step so close to death, but the two of you never met.
Near-death experience without actually meeting death.
Oh and the leather gods gave her a gift to find the best place to put a slug of lead.
A gift from mysterious forces to find the best target for harm.
Got the crooked ones checking their beds.
The detective disrupts the plans of the corrupt.
Oh but you can't believe what you see with your eyes.
Caution against trusting appearances; skepticism about what is seen.
Under the green and yellow glow from the Cash 4 Gold sign.
Describing a scene under the glow of a Cash 4 Gold sign.
Beautiful creature, how you move in the night.
Praising a mysterious and alluring figure moving in the night.
She really cleans up the place and then she'll vanish from sight.
The figure cleans up a place and then disappears.
Cloaked man steadies his gaze, follows her into the haze.
A cloaked man watches her and follows her into a mysterious situation.
Quietly she slipped away and then he knew he had to stop.
She escapes, prompting the man to realize he must intervene.
Wrapped up in leather from head to toe, she made his heart beat oom pa pa.
Describing the captivating appearance of the mysterious woman.
White as a bone and born to roam.
Describing the woman as exceptionally pale and destined to roam.
For a moment does evade.
A momentary escape or avoidance by the woman.
The eye of the man, they narrow just as he feels her grazing blade.
The man senses danger as the woman's blade approaches.
Steady hand and voice the same, smokey and demure.
The woman's demeanor is calm, composed, and alluring.
You'll have two mouths if you refuse, so who you working for?
A warning or threat about consequences if cooperation is refused.
