Let Me Out - Kesia & Wøvex

Let me take you out Downtown, tonight Let me take you out I follow you home Watch you write that note I know you feel all alone, so I'm gonna take you out Hoo-ooh, hoo Hoo-ooh, oh-oh, oh There's a crowd of people, talking in your head Talking all at once, they never want to go to bed Hoo-ooh, hoo Hoo-ooh, oh-oh, oh For a six year old coming off a water slide The climb back up is like Mount Everest Like Everest Like Everest Do you get out of these ways? Do you get out of these ways?

You and I, we've gone to far Aimin' for each other's hearts Why can't we ever keep it simple? Just a touch and we ignite Strangled in a hundred lies The things you say they come in riddles Out of all the mistakes You're the best I have made But you let me down But you let me down After all we've been through It means nothin' to you 'Cause you let me down I said, won't you let me out now? I said, won't you let me out now? After all we've been through It means nothin' to you 'Cause you let me down I said, won't you let me out now? Won't you let me out? I said, won't you let me out now? Won't you let me out? I said, won't you let me out now? Won't you let me out? I said, won't you let me out now? You and I we've gone to far Aimin' for the brightest stars Why can't we ever keep it simple? Just a spark and we ignite Caught up in a hundred lies The things you say they come in riddles Out of all the mistakes You're the best I have made But you let me down But you let me down After all we've been through It means nothin' to you 'Cause you let me down I said, won't you let me out now? 'Cause you let me down Won't you let me out? Won't you let me out? Won't you let me out? I said won't you let me out now? Won't you let me out? I said won't you let me out now? Won't you let me out? I said won't you let me out now? 'Cause you let me down Won't you let me out? Won't you let me out? Won't you let me out? I said won't you let me out now? Won't you let me out? Won't you let me out? Won't you let me out? Won't you let me out?

If we give up before we ever fought If we only do what we are told And think we know it all, but never really learnt If we turn the page before the page has turned If we close doors, we never opened up If we don't really start a thing before we stop And never speak the truth although we do not lie If we're full of plans but never dare to try... Ghosts we are, made of flesh and bone With empty minds and hearts of stone The seed that was not meant to thrive Existing but not really alive Ghosts we are, though there's blood in our veins Born free we chose to live in chains Thought we were on our way, but in fact we weren't So we burned out, before we ever burned... If we take no risk, afraid that we might loose And neverever make a choice, but let the others choose If we don't love, afraid we won't be loved If we long for touch but keep our fingers gloved If we've got it good but even though feel bad And should be happy but always feel sad If we crash down before we tried to fly Then we are dead so long before we die Ghosts we are, made of flesh and bone With empty minds and hearts of stone The seed that was not meant to thrive Existing but not really alive Ghosts we are, though there' blood in our veins Born free we chose to live in chains Thought we were on our way, but in fact we weren't So we burned out before we ever burned...

They reach out to the world They carry our fortune Written firmly into their palm They may tremble and shiver When we need it the least But as well they may be all safe and calm They give and take They tease and taunt They salute or wave goodbye They caress a lover Pull the trigger of a gun Sign a treaty that seals the peace They build cars and houses And at times they save a life Or go spreading the disease They give and take They tease and taunt They salute or wave goodbye They push and shove They clutch and cling Or hold somebody tight It's all in those hands They can do so much good Can be so destructive Hands shape the world Hands break it down They may clench into fists Or as well be opened wide Invite you or push you back They may pin the words down Of the book that will change your life Or close around a victim's neck They give and take They tease and taunt They salute or wave goodbye They push and shove They clutch and cling Or hold somebody tight It's all in those hands They can do so much good Can be so destructive Hands shape the world Hands break it down Hands build it up again
