the way you stand there in your three striped shell toes
the way your hair dance it's clear you want all eyes on you
it's all eyes on you
and though i know that i won't get no answers i
i just can't stop from indulging my lean / fool eyes on you

as you dance on the burning coals
i feel the bullet holes
tell myself i got nothing to lose
though your touch gives me vertigo
i'm like a domino
darling i keep falling back to you

but if it's over
why do you stop me getting sober from your love
you pull me closer
you say you miss the way i hold ya
i feel your breathing on my shoulder
why do you stop me getting sober

you leave your sweet bitter taste under my tongue and
you leave you smoke to seep deep into my lungs i know
how you're taking hold
my love is wasted
somehow you laced it
and i'm on my knees
there's no remedy
