Bloc Party - Virtue lyrics

Temptation hides In the space between Lord, help me fight This desire for fire Words can cleanse and purify Or tear down a pack of lies In your presence, consequence I can't stop trembling For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? For all my good fortune I would change my place with you This path will lead us back Will lead us back to ruin For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? This path will lead us back Will lead us back to ruin For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? Once in a while The urge resurfaces So we split hairs As rumours circulate And there's a need to fertilise Behind my lover's trusting eye Like water drops on burning warts I can't stop trembling For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? For all my good fortune I would change my place with you This path will lead us back Will lead us back to ruin For all of my virtue Why can I not hold the truth? I've fallen I've fallen again I've fallen I've fallen again I've fallen I've fallen again I've fallen
