Dirty Pretty Things - Blood On My Shoes lyrics
Your rating:
You look smart but that's not enough You need a course in attitude, nobody's fussed You can spend all your days planning what to buy And then the signs all spin around, you'll pay your debts in time You wanna shake, shake, shake to fit in all that much There seem to be holes in everything his cold hands touch And we'll take, take, take and swallow the whole way down We may fall forever but we won't fall down We'll, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, woah, oh Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, woah, oh and it's on There's blood on my shoes Nobody knows Because of you Where did you go? Where did you go? Nobody knows Where did you go? You're pretty, so pretty And if somebody loves you then leave us alone All the rich get richer but still they cry They sing the city is after us and we don't know why Profound is the debt, the debt you owe You owe it to sorrow and sorrow you owe For when we're down the ship is all you've ever known You go to glamor for the glamor but it's never your own, so alone There's blood on my shoes Nobody knows Because of you Where did you go? Where did you go? Nobody knows Where did you go? With our cock-eyed wistful vision we're oblivious To all the hell we've raised, baby, that's how it should stay When we don't feel change or pain or hate or love We're going to reach for the sedative but it's never enough For our fake, fake spirit and our masquerade We have so many colors but still we dwell in the shade I play the pugilist, the apathist in so many ways It's always tomorrow or never, forever and a day, so alone There's blood on my shoes Nobody knows Because of you Where did you go? Where did you go? Nobody knows Where did you go?
