Biffy Clyro - A Tragic World Record lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

When you've taken everything,

And there's nothing left to give

You're stuck with an empty skin

I'll call it 'my human bag'

But you can't forget the past

I keep my diary on it's chest

My keys are in it's mouth

I write my lyrics upon it's legs

(Pre-Chorus)

This thing is like a nightmare

It's hard to drag it anywhere

I'm riding round in your town

(Chorus)

There's love than everything else in your house

You can't escape the truth, it's dangerous!

(Verse)

Now I have a fraction of

The respect I used to have

Forget everything you know

And you can fuck what you're fighting for

(Pre-Chorus)

This thing is like a nightmare

It's hard to drag it anywhere

I'm riding round in your town

(Chorus)

There's love than everything else in your house

You can't escape the truth, it's dangerous!

I'm outside the back of your house, trying hard to work out it all

But you're always in the background, and looking out, you're looking out

(Instrumental break)

(Pre-Chorus)

This thing is like a nightmare

It's hard to drag it anywhere

I'm riding round in your town

(Chorus)

There's love than everything else in your house

You can't escape the truth, it's dangerous!

I'm outside the back of your house, trying hard to work out it all

But you're always in the background, and looking out, you're looking out
