Bloc Party - Virtue lyrics
[Bloc Party - Virtue lyrics]
Lord, help me fight this desire for fire
Words can cleanse and purify or tear
Down a pack of lies
In your presence, consequence
I can't stop trembling
For all of my virtue
Why can I not hold the truth?
For all my good fortune
I would change my place with you
This path will lead us back
Will lead us back to ruin
For all of my virtue
Why can I not hold the truth?
This path will lead us back
Will lead us back to ruin
For all of my virtue
Why can I not hold the truth?
Once in a while, the urge resurfaces
So we split hairs as rumours circulate
And there's a need to fertilise
Behind my lover's trusting eye
Like water drops on burning rocks
I can't stop trembling
For all of my virtue
Why can I not hold the truth?
For all my good fortune
I would change my place with you
This path will lead us back
Will lead us back to ruin
For all of my virtue
Why can I not hold the truth?
I've fallen, I've fallen again
I've fallen, I've fallen again
I've fallen, I've fallen again i've fallen
