Lyrics (unofficial)

Oh my pounding heart wants to pull you apart

It's a mistake
Empty-handed at daybreak
The form of the skin is a lie in the flesh
What's it take?
It's a trap
Strap on your head for another lap

Land on your feet in another suite
It's sweeter, complete, still standing in the street
In the street where you live with its mansions and flats
With its fountains and statues and gardens and flowers
Its starlings and rats
Where you stand in the shadow behind a great window
You say 'Well, that is that'

It's a pleasure, at your beck and call
At you leisure
The root of desire is a crack in the scene
Hesitation
It's a scam
Jam on the ring, different I am

Land on your knees wherever you please
Seizing control
Still standing in a hole
And a whole year goes by in the blink of a pigsty
Oh don't be shy
Its rewards and the seats your support and deceitful
Oh my oh my
Oh my pounding heart wants to pull you apart

Oh my pounding heart wants to pull you apart
Yeah my pounding heart wants to pull you apart

Oh my pounding heart wants to pull you apart
