Everything Everything - Night of the Long Knives lyrics

Hold me on this night of the long knives Hold me on this night of the long knives It's coming! It's coming There's a flood on the street, there's a tide and it's coming in now ... concrete ... And they say it's a wave but it feels like a dribbling mouth ... light bulb flicker but it never comes on Yes the bomb may be falling In the lies where you stood Man I know it's a real big shame about your neighbourhood I'm the wrong kind of people Why'd you listen to me? Just the ... I'm breathing in and out It was a long time coming It was a long time coming It's coming (shame about your neighbourhood) It's coming ... and it needs to stop and anytime soon But the face he's showing me's lookin' two-toned ... starts with the dog-gone ... of a living cartoon Hey, what the hell do you mean when you talk about Rome? Yes the bomb may be falling In the lies where you stood Man I know it's a real big shame about your neighbourhood I'm the wrong kind of people Why'd you listen to me? Just the ... I'm breathing in and out It was a long time coming It was a long time coming It's coming (shame about your neighbourhood) It's coming (shame about your neighbourhood) Hold me on this night of the long knives Hold me on this night of the long knives I've been dying all my life I've been dying all my life I've been dying all my life I've been dying all my life It's coming (shame about your neighbourhood) It's coming (shame about your neighbourhood) It's coming (it was a long time coming) It's coming (it was a long time coming)
