Faultines Lyrics by Dirty Pretty Things

Romance at Short Notice

0

[Verse 1]
The fights, they never end
Like the nights they've taken me over
And yeah, I get the fear
But I cannot be bothered

[Refrain]
And all this waiting is just hesitating for nothing, oh

[Chorus]
And the fault lines and all the conjecture from both sides
Why, oh why, can't we change things?
This is destroying me inside
You know you want to run away

[Verse 2]
We shared our dreams
And nearly everything in between
I'll never forget those long lost days in a haze
Where we lost ourselves with no apology

[Refrain]
And all this waiting is just hesitating for nothing, oh

[Chorus]
And the fault lines hung on the wrong side of daylight
Why, oh why, can't we change things?
This is destroying us inside

[Bridge]
You know you want to jump into the pit, back to life so sordid
We fell down dead but nobody saw it
I've got twenty faces and I talk in the tongues
I feel like the devil, what does the devil do?
You know you want to run away

[Chorus]
And these fault lines and all the conjecture from pilgrims
It slides on the deck and it's all fine
We could hold on for a lifetime
You know you want to run away
