Banquet (Demo) Lyrics by Bloc Party

10 Tracks

2004

[Verse 1]
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out
Why'd you feel... so underrated?
Why'd you feel... so negated?
[Chorus]
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning into myself
I wanted to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning into myself
[Verse 2]
She don't think straight
No, no, no, she don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her, and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled
[Chorus]
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning into myself
I wanted to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning into myself
[Bridge]
And if you feel a little left behind
I will see you on the other side
And if you feel a little left behind
I will see you on the other side
[Outro]
'Cause you give in too easy
'Cause you give in too easy, that's for sure
'Cause you give in too easy
'Cause you give in too easy, that's for sure
'Cause you give in too easy
'Cause you give in too easy, that's for sure
'Cause you give in too easy
'Cause you give in too easy, that's for sure
