If lust and longing
were all we knew
And l
ove was kissing on the roo
f in view
Of the of
fice workers and their ca
mera phones
My h
eart would pump to l
et you know
That you could ta
ke this song, if it’s a
ny good at all
H
ide it somewhere when your n
ew love calls
And i
f he asks if he hears m
usic playing
T
ell him it’s the rattling of old bo
lts and chains
That held your he
art in
But now you’re sta
rting
To f
orget you ever knew me
And you won’t let me in
If lu
st and longing; were a
ll we knew
And you were som
eone special and
I was too
Oh, would you t
ake this song, put it o
n your wall
Hi
de it somewhere when your lover calls
I
f he asked if that’s mu
sic playing,
T
ell him that’s the rattling of old bolts and chains
H
ow it went old so quickly but that was lo
ng ago
When you could fa
ll in love with every
one you know
And co
nsume the songs like D
NA
Cut
me open, to hear what they’d say
Pi
erce my skin with your arrow
and bow
Sa
int Sebastian could tell you what he knows ’bout tha
t
And how it fe
els
Oh
Oh, let me
in
S
he says, ‘break the rules now
T
alk like you got nothing to lose
D
on’t dance with nobody el
se’, and
H
e’s drunk at the wheel again
r
umoured to be somewhere with a mo
nster smile that’s way too ti
ght
Let me tell you what I know
Sh
e’s got to leave this alone
T
o find a way out of here
S
he can still make it home
Now we b
oth know longing, how it gets un
der your skin
But then I s
aw you making eyes
into him
When you could
take me over,
take it all
Cl
ose that distance, smash that door
B
eat me up or t
ake my car
O
ne last time before you crawl
But when your lover calls
Under the bed when his bullet falls
If he asks if he hears music playing
Tell them it’s the rattling of old bolts and cha
ins
In the night when you watch it fall
All you gotta do now
I
s let me in
Let me i
n
L
et. Me.

She’s f
ixing studs onto her ballet shoes
w
alks like she’s got nothing to lose
St
ill she just can’t look at no-one el
se
While
in the basement there is blood on his knees
Trem
bling to see what she’ll reveal
W
hen everybody has gone h
ome
Let me tell you what I know
W
e could just leave this al
one, Oh
T
o find our way out of
here
We could just make it
H
er arrows are flying they don’t hit their target and
She’s in the basement crying
She c
an’t give this much of a fk a
gain
So she’ll g
o to another with Clergerie heels on
D
ance with him to the beat of this song
Te
ach him that the beast must earn his
horns
And me? I'
m just another number, son of generation kill
Th
ese days, too much time to kill
And if I see her, I’ll tell her you say
hi
