Eight Arms To Hold You lyrics

Zero, one, two, three,
four days without you. Eight, nine,
now we're five times two [x3]
Words won't do.
Words won't do it. Words..
can't stay true.
Words won't get me through it.
Honey please, seize me.
I know what I need. Plan B,
some security. [x3]
Words won't do.
Words won't do it. Words..
can't stay true.
Words won't get me through it.
Don't make me prove it.

You sleep better when you're,
you sing better when you're
You need me more when you're straight.
Is this the weekend
Is that your girlfriend
No, she's green and innocent.
You smoke her like she's incense.
You smile. [x3]
Stay straight for me. [x2]
I'll wait till summer's over,
I'll love you through October.
I'll give you everything.
I'll trade you anything for her.
Yeah, oh yeah.

Leave me, lying here.
Cause I don't wanna go. [x2]
Tell me, tell me
what you really want from me.
You gotta let me know.
I'm falling off and
I need you terribly.
One down and one to go.
Volcano Girls,
we really can't be beat.
Warm us up and watch us blow.
But now and then we fail
and we admit defeat.
We're falling off,
we are watered down and fully grown.
Leave me, lying here.

I found a place where we can talk.
I found a way to reach a middle gound.
Keep your castle in my sandbox.
Build it up so we can burn it down.
Anyway I love my man,
love to keep him spinning
round and round.
Keep him feeding love from my hand.
Any way to turn him inside out.
I don't wanna go
down like the sunlight.
I don't wanna go
out like the moonlight.
I don't wanna be found at

It's freezing in Bristol,
there's love on the telly.
A girl grinning at me,
she's doing the shimmy.
And she's cool,
and she's skinny..
And she's a fool for the
last living rock king.
It's her will, it's her
wonder it's her thrill,
it's her way home.
She's right where she
always wanted to be, she
can't change, change, change.
It's lightning in London.
There's s*** on the telly.

Will it ever come like it did
for you, like it did for you
I kinda heard you singing,
oh I never knew, no I never knew.
My heart skips around
when I hear the sound.
I'm never alone cause
you're following me home.
I'm falling in love,
my walkman and me,
with David Bowie.
yeah, you betcha.
With teenage medication
flowing through my veins,
I can face the strain.

Goodbye 25,
you were a good year for the girls.
Goodbye 25,
you'll be the goldfinch,
I'm the harpies.
There's something in the unity,
forget humility.
Oh, what's coming over me
is awesome, awesome.
God forgive me,
I know it's so awesome, awesome.
Heaven help me,
I know it's a fine place to be.
Goodbye indolence,
your filthy left hand kept me down.
Goodbye cowardice,

When you've had enough,
and you've got it bad enough
and you can't let go.
When it comes to blows,
and you start to overflow,
and you can't get home.
It's a subtle kind of cruel,
it taps my spine.
Here I'm drawing a line,
I'm asking please.
Don't you wanna
be happy with me [x2]
I'm afraid if you
don't come around soon,
I'll turn sadder
than you ever were,
and you'll learn

Wake up and talk to me,
it's a long time since last night.
I know we said things,
the saddest things,
and I'm not sure it was wise.
When the morning sad,
you don't look back,
but you sure don't look ahead.
The morning sad,
you know the morning sad.
The morning sad, never had it
so bad, never had it so bad.
I'm writing desperate songs,
while you're fast asleep inside.

Take me away, I know
I could use the rest.
I wanna clear up this mess.
I need a few days,
with my good sense.
I need a few good days.
Benjamin, no.. oh.. [x2]
Benjamin, no..
where did you go No, no..
When you were falling from my tree,
I was not scared.
I thought you'd
meet me back up there.
It never dawned on me
you were home free.
It never dawned on me, no.
Benjamin, no.. oh.. [x2]

I wind you up,
then I wait here for the melancholy.
I give you up,
while you sit here in all your glory.
I never thought you would,
I never knew you could.
But now you're gone,
and I don't think I care.
I sold your love down the river
for a bow and arrow.
Euphoria has just been here
and she's looking terrible.
I've never sunk this low,
it's better if you go.
When you're nearby,

Sleep little flea,
little boy me. A freak.
Am I clean flea I feel like men,
(flea, little flea, little boy)
I feel like boys, think I'm peeling.
And the ringing in my ears
from playing too loud.
I hear the ocean,
I hear the crowd.
Disconnected, I am unattached.
An unmade bed
makes me feel like a failure.
Bedroom eyes lead to blurry vision,
blurry vision.
And the ringing in my ears

You didn't notice I was gone.
Cause you were tying up your arm.
And when I stand on my head,
you never react.
I can't get you to crack. [x2]
not one f***ing smile.
But when it comes right down to it,
I'm gonna run right back to him,
I wanna be smack dab with him.
I've grown to love his stoneface so [x2]
I've grown to love it.
A sneaky goddess got my man.
That kinda love don't understand him.

Waiting for opportunity to strike.
I have been your biggest fan.
What a tour.
A little blow to cure your fright,
it's what it takes to trap a man.
Water me, I am not a desert plant,
and there was life before you.
(When I close)
Will I wear my blue eyes
(When I open)
This time
(When I close)
Or should I wear my green eyes
(When I open)
That shine and shine
(When I close)
