Cover art for Northline lyrics by Richmond Fontaine

"Boyfriend's Belif" not belive "Asleep some where in the back of a Montey Carlo" Which is some movie director i think.

I think this one is about a girl he knows on junk or some other drug I dont know. Which had started from her boyfriend. Even though he used to sleep with her, they were still friends - so they hung out and watched movies. The writer thinks perhaps, she still likes him - and that the boyfriend only made matters worse for her. He has nearly, or has, lost touch of her. Northline seems like a place or the movie theatre.

Its such a good song - I love the imagery. In a whole, the song is about, "a friend he couldn't help"?

It is a book... Willy Vlautin's second novel, Northline
