Bates Motel Lyrics by Mute

Thunderblast

2011

[Verse 1]
Bleeding, dripping fast
Never thought you'd be the first to fall
It's such a shame
We couldn't watch your back today
It is such a disgrace that you're
Bleeding, dripping fast
Never thought you'd be the first to fall
It's such a shame
We couldn't watch your back today
It is such a disgrace

[Chorus]
Close to me I'll keep this raw emotion
We failed so hard
Fall down the drain
Together, together
We thought we could prevail against the odds
Fall down the drain
Together, together
We thought we could prevail against the odds
We failed so hard

[Verse 2]
Darkened river is freed from their fragile veins
Powerless hands forever being stained
Couldn't watch your back today
It is such a disgrace that you're
Bleeding, dripping fast
Never thought you'd be the first to fall
It's such a shame
We couldn't watch your back today
It is such a disgrace

[Chorus]
Close to me I'll keep this raw emotion
We failed so hard
Fall down the drain
Together, together
We thought we could prevail against the odds
Fall down the drain
Together, together
We thought we could prevail against the odds
We failed so hard!

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Close to me I'll keep this raw emotion
We failed so hard

[Outro]
Fall down the drain
Together, together
We thought we could prevail against the odds
Fall down the drain
Together, together
We thought we could prevail against the odds
We failed so hard
