Broad-Shouldered Beasts |
| Broad-shouldered beasts fill the sky |
| Manhattan beats at the night |
| But you are wrapped up in wire |
| Curled up in fright |
| So I took you to the city for the night |
| To dance under dizzy silver lights |
| But for a moment, you were wild |
| With abandon like a child, just a moment |
| But wasn’t it you who said I was not free |
| And wasn’t it you who said I needed peace |
| And now it’s you who’s floored by fear of it all |
| And it’s alright |
| Take it out on me |
| These apartment walls are paper thin |
| And no one is trying to listen in |
| What to hear our doubts |
| Hear our whispered shouts, they don’t care |
| Wasn’t it you who said I was not free |
| And wasn’t it you who said I needed peace |
| And now it’s you who’s floored by fear of it all |
| But when you feel the world wrapping round your neck |
| Feel my hand round yours |
| And when you feel the world wrapping round your neck |
| Don’t succumb |
| But it’s alright |
| Take it out on me |
