Ben Langmaid [La Roux]

We can fight our desires
Ooooh but when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Ooooh whether we like it or not
They say we can love who we trust
But what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions
Oooh but what are feelings without emotions?

I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
I'm hoping you'll understand
and not let go of my hand
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
I'm hoping you'll understand
and not let go of my hand

I hang my hopes out on the line
Oooh will they be ready for you in time?
If you leave them out too long
Oooh they'll be withered by the sun
Full stops and exclamation marks
Ooh my words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Can this bridge cross the ocean?

I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
I'm hoping you'll understand
and not let go of my hand

I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
I'm hoping you'll understand
and not let go of my hand



Let's go to war
To make peace
Let's be cold
To create heat
I hope in darkness
We can see
And you're not blinded
By the light from me

Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh Ooooooooooh

I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
I'm hoping you'll understand
and not let go of my hand

Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh
Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh

I'm the obsessor
Holding your hand
It seems you have forgotten
About your man
Alone in the darkness
My bed's a different land
Your touch intensifies
And I'm in the Quicksand
I'm in the Quicksand
I'm in the Quicksand

You're the upsetter
Stroking my hand
What's my position?
I don't understand
Am I your possession?
Am I in demand?
Oh when you turn to me
I'm in the Quicksand
I'm in the Quicksand
I'm in the Quicksand

You, you moved into my mind again Oooh
You, you're walking around rent free Oooh
Oh, I could let you stay
But I'm walking on broken ground again
Oh, oh, when will I learn?
All you do is push me back in the dirt

Ooooh Oooooh Ooooh ooooh
Oooh Ooooh Ooooh ooooh
Ooooh Oooooh Ooooh ooooh
Oooh Ooooh Ooooh ooooh

I'm in the Quicksand
Oooh oooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh
Oooh Ooooh

I'm in the Quicksand

My heart, it melts like plastic
I fell through the hole yesterday
Your smile pulled me in like elastic
I felt my mind detonate

Oh, I make mistakes
And you just say it's growing pains
When I feel ashamed
You tell me it's just growing pains

We broke in two like a matchstick
It burns in my soul every day
Every day
Your world was to me so fantastic
And hell seemed so far away
Far away

Oh, I've made mistakes
And you just say it's growing pains
When I feel ashamed
You tell me it's just growing pains
When I'm crying out for change
You tell me it's just growing pains
And oh, I've made mistakes
And yes, I know it's growing pains

The truth, it feels like concrete
I drove into its walls yesterday
I wish I could be realistic
But like children
My dreams run away

I know I've made mistakes
You say it's growing pains
And when I feel ashamed
You say it's growing pains
When I'm crying out for change
You say it's growing pains
I know I made mistakes
And I know it's growing pains

Oh, I've made mistakes
And you just say it's growing pains
When I feel ashamed
You tell me it's just growing pains
When I'm crying out for change
And oh, I've made mistakes
And yes, I know it's growing pains
