Bloc Party - One Month Off

Well there were seven years between us

Seems that all my friends were right

That we can t survive on your bedroom eyes

And a Spanish guitar

When we started this it was paradise

Not just Bethnal green

And it s just not right this waiting game

Making a cuckold of me

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting fire with firewood

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting lies with lies

(If you need time)

And it s just not like me to lash out

But, enough is enough

Tell me what the others can do

That I cant

Translucent and sun-bleached skin, yeah

When did you get so L.A.?

How can you desert me after

All we ve been through?

Stuck on a dream that somewhere is better

You ll be the one missing out

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting fire with firewood

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting lies with lies

(If you need time)

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting fire with firewood

(If you need time)

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting lies with lies

(If you need time, time, time, time, time, time)

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting fire with firewood

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting lies with lies

(If you need time)

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting fire with firewood

(If you need time)

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting lies with lies

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting fire with firewood

I can be as cruel as you

Fighting lies with lies…
