I Used to Fall In Love
Brutal, beautiful
Strung out, hung out
Screaming sirens, scryscraper coffins
Shambolic, chaotic
Computer boffins
Strip-tease, traffic lights
Cut throat beer fights
Poison friends, fakers and takers
Stoic spectators
And you're all cold, cold heart breakers
Drunks slumped, cans tilted
Lost your mind in the violent crime
Strobes and flashes, knife gashes
Bright lights, jilted lovers
Piss stains and splattered brains
Corruption production, fag packets
Prediction rackets
You're all bribes and lies
Did you slip inside and get too low?
Did you slip inside and wanna know?
Smashed up limbs, stifled screams
A battle of lies, lightweight street fights
Monday mourning, pungent yawning
Inner-city casualty
Science and technology battle against me
I know there's something terminal eating away at me
A vulture's nest
Jesus, what a test
Did you slip inside and get too low?
Did you slip inside and wanna know?
I used to fall in love with everyone I'd meet
And then I realized it's murder out
Murder on the streets
Yeah, I used to fall in love with everyone I'd meet
And then I realized it's murder out on the streets
You know it's murder out on the streets
So don't fall in love with everyone you meet
'Cause I know it's murder out on the streets
You know it's murder out
Murder on the streets
Strung out, hung out
Screaming sirens, scryscraper coffins
Shambolic, chaotic
Computer boffins
Strip-tease, traffic lights
Cut throat beer fights
Poison friends, fakers and takers
Stoic spectators
And you're all cold, cold heart breakers
Drunks slumped, cans tilted
Lost your mind in the violent crime
Strobes and flashes, knife gashes
Bright lights, jilted lovers
Piss stains and splattered brains
Corruption production, fag packets
Prediction rackets
You're all bribes and lies
Did you slip inside and get too low?
Did you slip inside and wanna know?
Smashed up limbs, stifled screams
A battle of lies, lightweight street fights
Monday mourning, pungent yawning
Inner-city casualty
Science and technology battle against me
I know there's something terminal eating away at me
A vulture's nest
Jesus, what a test
Did you slip inside and get too low?
Did you slip inside and wanna know?
I used to fall in love with everyone I'd meet
And then I realized it's murder out
Murder on the streets
Yeah, I used to fall in love with everyone I'd meet
And then I realized it's murder out on the streets
You know it's murder out on the streets
So don't fall in love with everyone you meet
'Cause I know it's murder out on the streets
You know it's murder out
Murder on the streets
