Bloc Party LyricsSilent AlarmBanquet A heart of stone, a smoking gun I can give you life, I can take it away A heart of stone, a smoking gun I'm working it out Why'd you feel so underrated? Why'd you feel so negated? Turning away from the light Becoming adult Turning into myself I wanted to bite not destroy To feel her underneath Turning into the light She don't think straight She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops And you don't taste like her and you never ever will And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled And if you feel a little left behind We will wait for you on the other side Cos I'm on fire Cos you know I'm on fire when you come Cos you know I'm on fire Cos you know I'm on fire so stomp me out Cos I'm on fire [x4] This Modern Love To be lost in the forest To be cut adrift You've been trying to reach me You bought me a book To be lost in the forest To be cut adrift I've been paid I've been paid Don't get offended If I seem absent minded Just keep telling me facts And keep making me smile Don't get offended If I seem absent minded I get tongue-tied Baby, you've got to be more discerning I've never known what's good for me Baby, you've got to be more demanding I will be yours I'll pay for you anytime You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness Well jump on, enjoy, you can gorge away You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness Jump right Baby, you've got to be more discerning I've never known what's good for me Baby, you've got to be more demanding Jump left What are you holding out for? What's always in the way? Why so damn absent-minded? Why so scared of romance? This modern love breaks me This modern love wastes me Do you wanna come over and kill some time? Tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts Tell me facts Throw your arms around me Pioneers If it can be broke then it can be fixed, if it can be fused then it can be split It's all under control If it can be lost then it can be won, if it can be touched then it can be turned All you need is time We promised the world we'd tame it, what were we hoping for? A sense of purpose and a sense of skill, a sense of function but a disregard We will not be the first, we won't You said you were going to conquer new frontiers, Go stick your bloody head in the jaws of the beast We promised the world, we'd tame it, what were we hoping for? Breath in, breath out So here we are reinventing the wheel I'm shaking hands with a hurricane It's a colour that I can't describe, It's a language I can't understand Ambition, tearing out the heart of you Carving lines into you Dripping down the sides of you We will not be the last. The Prayer Lord give me grace and dancing feet And the power to impress Lord give me grace and dancing feet Let me outshine the moon Is it so wrong to crave recognition? Second best, runner-up Is it so wrong to want rewarding? To want more than is given to you? Than is given to you Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm, I will slice I will dazzle them with my wit Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm, I will slice I will dazzle, I will outshine them all Standing on the packed dance floor Our bodies thrown in time Silent on the weekdays Tonight I claim what's mine Is it so wrong to crave recognition? Second best, runner-up Is it so wrong to want rewarding? To want more than is given to you? Than is given to you Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm, I will slice I will dazzle them with my wit Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm, I will slice I will dazzle, I will outshine them all Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm, I will slice I will dazzle them with my wit Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm, I will slice I will dazzle, I will outshine them all |
