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 heartbreakers
Drunks slumped
Cans tilted
Lost yr 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 realised it's murder out
Murder on the streets
Yeah i used to fall in love with everyone i'd meet
And then i realised it's murder out on the streets
Y'know it's murder out on the streets
So don't fall in love with everyone you meet
Cos i know it's murder out on the streets
Y'know it's murder out
Murder on the streets.
