Spitting Off the Edge of the World (feat. Perfume Genius) [Lush Version] - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

I know your face I know your smile and how it plays Into the minds of those who cling to every word you say This isn't how I wanted to remember me and you Your eyes are talking but your lips are standing still Open your mouth tell me how I'm supposed to feel My finger pointing is just a warning so I suggest you Say you're wrong Let's get this over I would like to get some sleep tonight Let's get this over, I'd like to get some sleep tonight You make it hard for me to leave So very hard for me to leave By now the lies you told are weighing on your chest If I provide the rope I know you'll do the rest But I will not be an accessory no I'm not who you think And I will never be your enemy so don't insult me Say you're wrong This could be easier if I was over her Say you're wrong I know she's just a girl But she's got me standing on the edge I'm on the edge of the world My eyes are open for the first time This place not yours it's in my own eyes I am not a man who lives a life of soldiers I am not the kind of man who walks away I will stand up face to face or toe to toe with anyone Yes anyone Everything you said about me was the truth but I just don't think that I can look at you the same You're like a splinter that will never show its head to anyone To anyone Now I know that I was not the man you wanted You know I loved you and I wanted to make you proud My intentions were to never give myself to anyone Look what I've done
