Crescendo Lyrics by Little Boots

Nocturnes

2013

[Verse 1]
It's always something small in the beginning
Just the careless words said without thinking
That makes the chain react and there's no taking back
Oh oh, oh oh
[Verse 2]
Soon we're drawing swords and making circles
Tip-toeing 'round the thing that really hurts most
Too stubborn to stand down, too proud to turn around
Oh oh
[Chorus]
Caught in a crescendo, crescendo, crescendo
And none of us can let go, let go, let go
It's out of our control, control, control
And I can't stand the noise
[Verse 3]
You look me in the eye, I keep on staring
Straight ahead like I'm not even caring
But we both this game it's all a masquerade
Oh oh, oh oh
[Verse 4]
And I know later on, we'll both regret it
But while the moment's here, we can't forget it
Before we know we're stuck, turn our emotions up
Oh oh, oh oh
[Chorus]
Caught in a crescendo, crescendo, crescendo
And none of us can let go, let go, let go
It's out of our control, control, control
And I can't stand the noise
[Post-Chorus]
Can we stop and talk it over?
Instead of talking over ourselves
Can we stop and talk it over, over, over, over?
[Bridge]
We keep getting louder
We keep getting louder
We keep getting louder
And I can't stand the noise
Oh oh
[Chorus]
Caught in a crescendo, crescendo, crescendo
And none of us can let go, let go, let go
It's out of our control, control, control
And I can't stand the noise
[Post-Chorus]
Can we stop and talk it over?
Instead of talking over ourselves
Can we stop and talk it over, over, over, over?
