The Spy Lyrics by No Knife

Fire In The City of Automatons

1999

[Verse 1]
Shuffle through the hallway, slowly down the stairs
I think I caught what you had, not that you should care
A couple years have passed on by without the chance to sleep
It's only a dream, it's not very smart
I had a look at your blueprint, I admired its design
Then I ripped it to pieces and left it behind
[Hook]
He fears one side or the other...
[Verse 2]
Move through the hallway, slowly down the stairs
I think I caught what you had, not that you should care
It's your clever use of words, it's your clear, unblinking eye
It makes me forget to relax
With a heart full of holes and a head full of dreams
With a mouth full of honey and a fist full of bees
Somewhere there's a quiet place, there's a quiet place somewhere
I think I caught what you had, not that you would care
[Hook]
He fears one side or the other...
