Playlist Nothing But Thieves

nothing but thieves - excuse me

His space crowds out your space, your space
Your space crowds out hers
Coffee breath and headphone hiss
But no one says a word

Eyes upon the paper headline
Refuge in your phone
Bumping shoulders
Cough and sniff
But no one says hello

Woahh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here
Woahh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here

My heart beats like yours does, hers does
Her heart keeps good time
And everyday I mind the gap between you and me
Here comes someone else to share the air we breathe

Woahh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here
Woahh
Reach out for anyone
and they will tell you get out of here
Woahh
I'm asking everyone
you've gotta help me get out of here
Woahh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here

Meanwhile
Under the gun
Hey everyone
Our work here is done
We out
You gonna come?
Hey everyone
Our work here is done

Woahh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here
Woahh
Reach out for anyone
and they will tell you get out of here
Woahh
I'm asking everyone
you've gotta help me get out of here
Woahh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here

nothing but thieves - sorry

You might kill me with desire
Wind me tighter than a wire
It's something that you do to me
I run away like mercury
And I know you think it's rough
When you're try'na patch us up
And I say honey what is love?
You just say I drink too much

Maybe I'm defective
Or maybe I'm dumb
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done
Maybe I'm bad natured
Or maybe I'm young
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done

And I'm the t-shirt that I wear
Pick the thorns out of my hair
I broke your heart so carelessly
But made the pieces part of me
And now it hurts what we've become
'Cause you taught me how to love
It's me who taught you how to stop
And you just say I drink too much

Maybe I'm defective
Or maybe I'm dumb
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done
Maybe I'm bad natured
Or maybe I'm young
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done

I've waited for this
I'm ready for it
I've waited for this
I'm ready for it
Been waiting so long

I've waited for this
I'm ready for it
I've waited for this
I'm ready for it
Been waiting so long

Maybe I'm defective
Or maybe I'm dumb
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done
Maybe I'm bad natured
Or maybe I'm young
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done

nothing but thieves - emergency

Let me be absolutely clear
This is mine but I'll let you in
Gather round take a part of it, of me, of me
A wasted life seems to mean the most
But these seconds are valuable
Breathe in change or let it go and breathe

Emergency, help
Emergency, help
Emergency

The medicine is killing me
I wont lay down, I wont give in
The medicine is killing me
Some pieces have gone missing

Ohh, I'll give you something to think about
Ohh, I'll give you something to think about

Please sign on the dotted line
Those thoughts are not required
But you're all fucking vampires to me, to me
Emergency, help

The medicine is killing me
Some pieces have gone missing

Ohh, I'll give you something to think about
Ohhyeah, I'll give you something to think about

nothing but thieves - amsterdam

People don't know much
Need a whiskey crutch
To think of something new

Hey you watching me
Lookin' through a screen
I'm here in front of you

Sometimes the days, they feel so long
We all live under the same sun

So I hit my head up against the wall
Over and over and over and over again and again
'Cause I don't wanna be like them
I hit my head up against the wall
Over and over and over and over again
And again and again

People piss you off
Some you say you love
Those you call a friend

Walking through a crowd
Then you look around
See there's no one left

We live and then we die as one
We all live under the same sun

So I hit my head up against the wall
Over and over and over and over again and again
'Cause I don't wanna be like them
I hit my head up against the wall
Over and over and over and over again
And again and again and again

I left my heart in Amsterdam
Where I could dream and nights were long
I left my heart in Amsterdam
I hit my head against the wall
Over, over, over
Again and again and then over

So I hit my head up against the wall
Over and over and over and over again and again
'Cause I don't wanna be like them
I hit my head up against the wall
Over and over and over and over again
And again and again and again

I left my heart in Amsterdam
I left my heart in Amsterdam
I left my heart in Amsterdam
I really need that feeling back

nothing but thieves - itch

There's a rumbling
In my head
It's getting louder
Louder

There's a shaking
In my bones
It's getting stronger
Stronger

There's a hunger
In my heart
It's full of promise
Promise

There's an itch
Under my skin
It's under my skin
Under my skin

'Cause I just wanna feel something real
'Cause I just wanna feel something

On the pavement
I am looking
For a lover
A lover

And my eyes are rolling
She noticed

There's a blood red
On my shirt
And it's shining
Shining

There's a sharp pain
From my face
I kinda like it
I like it

'Cause I just wanna feel something real
Wanna feel something

Something

I just wanna love
I just wanna touch
I just wanna see
Something

I just wanna love
I just wanna touch
I just wanna see

'Cause I just wanna feel something real
Wanna feel something

nothing but thieves - wake up call

We met when we were young
I told you where to go
You had those creepers on
You showed me how to roll
Step out, this town
Has nothing that I wanna know

These hearts are wireless
This ain't no crowd control
These thoughts are violent
They murder rock and roll
Slow down fade out
That's not how I wanna go

Sometimes we never get started
No one will give you a wake up call
Sometimes the hours are wasted
No one will give you a wake up call

I need another rush
Something to fill our days
It lies in wait for us
It lives on empty space
Slow down, fade out
That's not how I wanna go

Sometimes you never get started
No one will give you a wake up call
Sometimes the hours are wasted
No one will give you a wake up call

Sometimes you never get started
No one will give you a wake up call
Sometimes the hours are wasted
No one will give you a wake up call

nothing but thieves - hanging

The blue one is a little chiller,
Use it to take the edge off a touch.
Pink one is a buzzkiller,
But she stops me from feeling too much.
This place stays the same,
What we gonna do in the pouring rain?
Yoo hoo Mary Jane,
Are you gonna come for a dance today?

Hanging by a thread,
She said
Where do you wanna go? [x3]
Some days never end,
Depends
Where do you wanna go? [x3]

It's true it can't get us down forever,
You say
"But hell I swear I don't know."
I threw my keys into the river
Cos I didn't wanna go home.
Goodbye, don't explain.
I don't wanna know why anyway.
Yoo hoo Mary Jane,
Are you coming round for a dance today.

Hanging by a thread,
She said
"Where do you wanna go?" [x3]
Some days never end,
Depends
"Where do you wanna go?" [x3]

Lets dive into this hole together, like this
And hope we never come out.

Hanging by a thread,
She said
"Where do you wanna go?" [x3]
Some days never end,
Depends
"Where do you wanna go?" [x3]

nothing but thieves - graveyard whistling

All that afterlife
I don't hold with it
All your gods are false
Just get used to it
Let's go out tonight
Kill some stubborn myths
Set those ghosts alight, get into it

No one's getting younger
Would you like a souvenir?
Let it take you under
Feel your worries disappear

'Cos if you don't believe, it can't hurt you
And when you let it leave, it can't hurt you
'Cos if you don't believe, then you know
Then you know it can never do you harm
'Cos if you don't believe, it can't hurt you

Ok, I admit
I'm not innocent
I did everything and I would again
I'm not listening
I've heard everything
Graveyard listening
I'm into it

No one's getting younger
Would you like a souvenir?
Let it take you under
Feel your worries disappear
Pow

'Cos if you don't believe, it can't hurt you
And when you let it leave, it can't hurt you
'Cos if you don't believe, then you know
Then you know it can never do you harm
'Cos if you don't believe, it can't hurt you

Got a picture and a passport and a number
Give me access to the cloud I'm living under
When I go there will I find a sense of wonder?
Open up the gates

'Cos if you don't believe, it can't hurt you
And when you let it leave, it can't hurt you
'Cos if you don't believe, then you know
Then you know it can never do you harm
'Cos if you don't believe, it can't hurt you

nothing but thieves - trip switch

Sharing secrets with another world
Rubbing shoulders with some unknown lovers
Making waves through the universe
Starting wars with anonymous brothers

Trip switch trip switch
Make a wish and I'll count to three
Press the button and we'll both be happy
Sending signals is a dirty trick
I get my love in a digital packet

Trip switch trip switch

What we do when the power's out
What do we do when the lights go
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down

Gimme data cos I need a hit
How I love stratospheric numbers
Information, I've been craving it
Gimme yours then gimme all the others

Trip switch trip switch

What we do when the power's out
What do we do when the lights go
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down

They put out the lights, they put out the lights
What we do when the power's out
What do we do when the lights go
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down

nothing but thieves - honey whiskey

This party's pretty boring
I don't think it?s for me
Lucy's already crashed out
she's on the spare settee

This air is getting so thin
Go down, go down, go down
The honey whiskey's kickin'
Go down, go down, go down

I think I better go before I try something I might regret
I might regret
I think I better go before I try something I might regret
I might regret

The black heart angels calling
With kisses on my mouth
There's poison in the water
The words are falling out

This air is getting so thin
Go down, go down, go down
The honey whiskey's kickin'
Go down, go down, go down

I think I better go before I try something I might regret
I might regret
I think I better go before I try something I might regret
I might regret

I think I better go before I try something I might regret
I might regret
I think I better go before I try something I might regret
I might regret
But if you wanna free your body tonight
It's our secret
It's our secret
I think I better go before I try something I might regret
I might regret

nothing but thieves - ban all the music

Cut me off from the rest of the world
It's my addiction
It turns me on.
It's oh so quiet my end of the world
Ban all the music
It's all gone wrong .
This is, this is it
They're tryn'a take it from me
Got this, this is it
Won't let them take it from me
Play an illegal song
And turn it up louder
Play an illegal song
And turn it up louder.
There's a buzz in the air, I've been told
It's my affliction
Been sick so long.
Switching off all the noise I've been sold
Ban all the music
It's all gone wrong.
This is, this is it
They're tryn'a take it from me
Got this, this is it
Won't let them take it from me
Play an illegal song
And turn it up louder
Play and illegal song
And turn it up louder.
This is, this is it
They're tryn'a take it from me
Got this, this is it
Won't let them take it from me
Play an illegal song
And turn it up louder
Play an illegal song.

nothing but thieves - last orders

We left the cliff
Wandered down the broadway to the alps
For another

A fight broke out
Someone took objection to my face
With a bottle

I thought I was dreaming but some girls are screaming
And my face is streaming blood as well
Soon as I had spoken like some demon woken
Now my nose is broken, what the hell

Take your fight outside
That's it for tonight
Take your fight outside
(We don't want any trouble in here)
That's it for tonight

The gun was hot
Crazy kind of rage within his eyes
Taking over

The cops were called
Someone put some water on my face
And I passed out

I thought I was dreaming, there were sirens screaming
And my friends were leaving me to die
But it wasn't heaven, just for 27
And we'll do it all again tonight

Take your fight outside
(We've got this thing under control)
That's it for tonight
(We've got this thing under control)
Take your fight outside
(We don't want any trouble in here)
That's it for tonight
(We've got this thing under control)

We've got this thing under control
We've got this thing under control

Take your fight outside
That's it for tonight
Take your fight outside
(Don't want any trouble in here)
That's it for tonight

Take your fight outside
We've got this thing under control
Take your fight outside
We've got this thing under control
Don't want any trouble in here

nothing but thieves - drawing pins

Every light is blinding
Every minute lasts all day
Every thought is fighting
They're not falling into place

I'm held down by drawing pins
They pierce the skin
Lights are on but no one's in
When you talk
I don't feel like I belong
Here at all

Tell me
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
Cos I I I can't figure it out
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
Cos I I I can't figure it out

I could use some Magick
C'mon Crowley, let me in

I'm held down by drawing pins
They pierce the skin
I try not to fall asleep
When you talk
I don't think that I belong
Here at all

Tell me
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
Cos I I I can't figure it out
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
Cos I I I can't figure it out

What do I have to do
To be loved, loved by you
[x4]

Tell me
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
Cos I I I can't figure it out
What you did it
What you did it
What you did it for
Cos I I I can't figure it out

What do I have to do
To be loved, loved by you

nothing but thieves - live like animals

The Tv tells us to be scared
We'd make a difference if we cared
We put our lives all up for sale
We get our truth in the Daily Mail
It's madness
Get used to it

Another unit to be sold
Pig-love is all we'll ever know
So we're gonna live like animals
We're gonna live like animals
It's madness
It's gone to shit

And now the kids are opening their eyes
And now the kids are starting up a fire
Dancing around, dancing around the light

So drink our blood like a parasite
For occupation: socialite
Just looking for another hit
Opinion's what you say it is
It's tragic
Get get used to it

So write your name as you come in
In case we want to kick you out
We're gonna make 'em build a wall
We're gonna live like animals
It's madness
It's gone to shit

If you're a something, don't ask for nothing
If you're a nothing, don't ask for something
If you're a something, don't ask for nothing
If you're a nothing, don't ask for something

And now the kids are opening up their eyes
And now the kids are starting up a fire
Dancing around, dancing around the light

So wake up
So wake up
So wake up
So wake up

So wake up
This ain't a dream
'Cause everything's exactly how it seems
