Lyrics The Crookes

The Crookes

Maybe In The Dark

Maybe it's just cheap easy lust with chemicals

We're dirt forever

Maybe we're blessed

I'll rip your dress, you pull my hair

Now we'll leave together

Maybe you're young

I'll bite your tongue, your lip will bleed

We're trash forever

Maybe you're right

Just for tonight

Your clumsy kiss won't taste so clever

And all I need is a substitute

Maybe in the dark she'll look enough like you

I'll take the shame

Lust to blame

What if we ever meet again?

I'll know your face, not your name

But we'll know

Maybe I'll find pleasure tonight with chemicals

I'll hardly miss her

Maybe you wear clothes like she wears

Same coloured hair

I'm sick forever

And all I need is a substitute

Maybe in the dark she'll look enough like you

I'll take the shame

Lust to blame

What if we ever meet again?

I'll know your face, not your name

But we'll know

Our eyes were bright

Out of sight

Two strangers caught behind the night

You're the perfect second best

Now every time I see your ghost

Now every time I see your ghost

You're the perfect second best

I'll take the shame

Lust to blame

What if we ever meet again?

I'll know your face, not your name

But we'll know

Our eyes were bright

Out of sight

Two strangers caught behind the night

You're the perfect second best

Oh, you're the perfect second best.
