Well there were 7 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, when did you get so LA How can you desert me after all we've been through Stuck on a dream that somewhere its better You'll be the one missing out I can be a cruel as you Fighting fire with firewood I can be as cruel as you Fighting lies Lies If you need time
