about

This happens to be our fav new track. Daddy likey.

lyrics

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...
