Lyrics Dinner and a Movie - The Speed of Sound in Seawater

Dinner and a Movie

Qu’est ce-que tu m’aime
Comme moi je t’aime?
We’re not so condemned
I’ll take you out
On one condition
We must continue
This bestial tradition
The knight is a dying breed
For there are few now who remember chivalry
And even less
Who can recall
The lengths I went
To be crushed by your jaws
But me
I’m just fine
You and I will go for a ride
On the only tandem bicycle
That’s likely to survive
Everything’ll be alright
I want to end up where you end up tonight
I’m less inspired by
The setting sun
Now that the earth has died
Still I can’t describe
How thrilled I am
To be one of two alive
Me?
I’m just fine
Morals aside
I’m justified
Humanity
Is on the line
Carry the fire
Carry the fire
Carry the fire
No
You’ve got charms aimed for hips
Aim for lips
You would try using might
Waste of time
Give up the fight
Everyday
It seems that I find something new
That I absolutely adore
About you
I’ll take you out
And back to my den
After that I guess whatever happens
Happens
Your longwinded speech
Buries me up to my neck
My gun just out of reach
If we could find a priest
I’d be happy to oblige you
Sadly they are all deceased
God fearing girls
Have no place here
Extinction bound
Bearing at the speed of sound
But I will not quit
Until we’re level with the ground
I don’t have a soul
A place to go
Control
A house or home
But I’ve got gall
I’ve got time
I’ve got a goal
A gal, the goddess of life
You might have a lock
I’ve got a key
I swear to god
You’d be so happy with me
I’ll take you out
The words you craft seem simple
But they hold a different tone
And though it’s true, she’d rather die than walk the earth alone
She will not suffer this
That dress will never touch the ground
I promise Eve is gonna shape the world
Her way this time around
I promise
