Marc Almond - Burning Boats lyrics

You trip and I fall

With my feet grounded I fall

Every time I take a step

And when I stand still

I fall

Chorus (x 2)

You stutter - I'm dumb

Blink, blink, blink - I'm blind

Strain your ears - I'm deaf

Bleed, bleed, bleed - I'm dead

Not even sunshine can show you (x 2)

My fragments of brilliance (x 4)

Graft them onto the muscle of your heart

Chorus (x2)

You stutter - I'm dumb

Blink, blink, blink - I'm blind

Strain your ears - I'm deaf

Bleed, bleed, bleed - I'm dead

Hair-tearing/gut-dashing/ cut cutting/hit-hitting flecks of

soul-stuff/hit-hitting/hit-hitting

Powerless horrified (x 2)

Little lords of molten want

I rest, stare spared your powerless horrified in-trance

If it was nothing more we'd be on fire

Risking nothing you (x 6)

I'll risk everything (x 6)

You risk nothing (x 2)

I'll risk everything (x 2)

You risk nothing

Bruise every time you breathe, bruise every time you breathe (x 6)

I'll risk everything (x 3)

You risking nothing (x 3)

I'll risk everything (x 3)

You risking nothing - to fade.....
