36 Degrees Lyrics by Placebo

Once More With Feeling

1996

[Verse 1]
We were tight, but it falls apart as silver turns to blue
Waxing with a candlelight, and burning just for you
Allocate your sentiment, and stick it in a box
I've never been an extrovert, but I'm still breathing

[Chorus]
Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache (it's what I'm afraid of)
Someone tried to do me ache (it's what I'm afraid of)

[Verse 2]
With hindsight, I was more than blind, lost without a clue
Thought I was getting carat gold, and what I got was you
Stuck inside the circumstances, lonely at the top
I've always been an introvert
Happily bleeding

[Chorus]
Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache (it's what I'm afraid of)
Someone tried to do me ache (it's what I'm afraid of)

[Outro]
Four, seven, two, three, nine, eight, five
I gotta breathe to stay alive
And one, four, two, nine, seven, eight
Feels like I'm gonna suffocate
Fourteen, sixteen, twenty-two
This skin that turns to blister blue
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm thirty-six degrees
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm thirty-six degrees
Shoulder toes and knees, I'm thirty-six degrees
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm thirty-six degrees
Shoulder toes and knees, I'm thirty-six degrees
Shoulder toes and knees, I'm thirty-six degrees
