There's a girl in the crowd and she's bawling her eyes out
Only girl in the town with her fingers in eyelids
And we're all fine in the back of your mind if we do what we like
Then we could be with you tonight and if we bleed you dry
And we're alright in the back of our minds if we do what we like
Then we could be with you tonight and if they bleed you dry
Taken half the tide, taken all your tide and if we bleed you dry
Bleed, you dry, we've taken half your tide and if we bleed you dry

You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today
You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today

There's a hand in the till still believing what she sells
Only girl in the town with her fingers in eyelids
And we're all fine in the back of your mind
If we do what you like then we could be with you tonight
And if they bleed you dry, and taken half the tide, and taken all your tide

You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today
You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today

Bleed you dry, I'm taking half your tide and if I bleed you dry

The Twilight Sad

The Twilight Sad are an indie rock band from Kilsyth, Scotland, comprising James Graham (vocals), Andy MacFarlane (guitar), and Mark Devine (drums). The band are currently signed to Fat Cat Records and have released three full-length albums, as well as several EPs and singles. Their 2007 debut album, Fourteen Autumns & Fifteen Winters, drew widespread acclaim from critics, who noted Graham's thick Scottish accent and MacFarlane's dense sonic walls of shoegazing guitar and wheezing accordion. The Twilight Sad's notoriously loud live performances have been described as "completely ear-splitting," and the band toured for the album across Europe and the United States throughout 2007 and 2008.
