I'm following these lines, as you're weaving all your lies Run your hand along my thighs, dot your t's and cross your i's And all your politics are nothing more than parlour tricks Just murmurs from your lips designed to keep me by your side
You call me on the phone as if the answer were unknown I say sorry, we need a turn of phrase And nothing that I do is ever good enough for you So, quickly... we need a turn of phrase
Your love is like a tease, yea you're doin' as you please Well, you're happy to consume until there isn't any room For the words are running out, they're stuck inside my mouth And they're tangled on my teeth as I grin...
Watching as you bend all the rules like you're the wind Is it hard to comprehend that we can never start again My blood is running cold, and I won't do as I'm told Well, one day we'll both be old, but for right now this has to end
You've tied me to the tracks, and I'm never coming back I'm sorry.... we need a turn of phrase These ropes are coming loose, and is if I need the proof So, quickly... we need a turn of phrase
Your love is like a tease, yea you're doin' as you please Well, you're happy to consume until there isn't any room For the words are running out, they're stuck inside my mouth And they're tangled on my teeth as I grin...
