I Used To Fall In Love

Brutal, beautiful

Strung out, hung out

Screaming sirens, scryscraper coffins

Shambolic, chaotic

Computer boffins

Strip-tease, traffic lights

Cut throat beer fights

Poison friends, fakers and takers

Stoic spectators

And you're all cold, cold heart breakers

Drunks slumped, cans tilted

Lost your mind in the violent crime

Strobes and flashes, knife gashes

Bright lights, jilted lovers

Piss stains and splattered brains

Corruption production, fag packets

Prediction rackets

You're all bribes and lies

Did you slip inside and get too low?

Did you slip inside and wanna know?

Smashed up limbs, stifled screams

A battle of lies, lightweight street fights

Monday mourning, pungent yawning

Inner-city casualty

Science and technology battle against me

I know there's something terminal eating away at me

A vulture's nest

Jesus, what a test

Did you slip inside and get too low?

Did you slip inside and wanna know?

I used to fall in love with everyone I'd meet

And then I realized it's murder out

Murder on the streets

Yeah, I used to fall in love with everyone I'd meet

And then I realized it's murder out on the streets

You know it's murder out on the streets

So don't fall in love with everyone you meet

'Cause I know it's murder out on the streets

You know it's murder out

Murder on the streets
