White Lies - Peace & Quiet Lyrics
After the red ants, the black-outCome peace and quiet.Those little foot-printsFleshed out calm in my mind.I lay like a compass,Digits accusing the sunriseRain-drops abseil the windowAnd flinch through the hurt cries.I feel this great pressure coming down on me.And the ticle of my bliss,Pulling at your sympathyI feel this great pressure coming down on me,When my nerve is on the high wire.My bliss, pulling at your sympathyAfter the hunt and the sweat nowCome peace and quiet.Your head on my heartAnchored the storm in my eyes.I lay like a carcassYour lips never letting the blood dryAnd so I pray for tomorrowAnd wait listening out for a reply.I feel this great pressure coming down on me.And the ticle of my bliss,Pulling at your sympathyI feel this great pressure coming down on me,When my nerve is on the high wire.My bliss, pulling at your sympathyI feel this great pressure coming down on me.And the ticle of my bliss,Pulling at your sympathyI feel this great pressure coming down on me,When my nerve is on the high wire.My bliss, pulling at your sympathy
