Letra da Música Night of the Long Knives de Everything Everything

Hold me on this night of the long knives
Hold me on this night of the long knives

It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood
It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood

There's a flood on the street
there's a tide and it's coming in now
Yet the concrete burns
at the back of your skull
And they say it's a wave
but it feels like a dribbling mouth
There's a light bulb flicker
but it never goes on
Yes, the bomb may be falling
if it lands where you're stood
Man, I know it's a real big shame
about your neighbourhood
I'm the wrong kind of people
why'd you listen to me?
Just the island a-breathing in and out and

It was a long time coming
It was a long time coming

It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood
It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood

There's a car overturned
and it isn't stopping any time soon
But the front seat sure beats
lickin' some toads
And the sparks make the dark
uncanny like a living cartoon
What the hell do you mean
when you talk about roads?
Yes, the bomb may be falling
if it lands where you're stood
Man, I know it's a real big shame
about your neighbourhood
I'm the wrong kind of people
why'd you listen to me?
Just the island a-breathing in and out and

It was a long time coming
It was a long time coming
Shame about your neighbourhood

It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood
It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood

Hold me on this night of the long knives
Hold me on this night of the long knives
(Are you my enemy now?)
I've been dying all my life
I've been dying all my life
I've been dying all my life
I've been dying all my life

[Chorus]
It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood
It's coming
Shame about your neighbourhood
It's coming (It was a long time coming)
Shame about your neighbourhood
It's coming (It was a long time coming)
Shame about your neighbourhood
It's coming
