Pirouette

So many colours here distorting my vision

Can’t tell my wrong from my right


You draw me closer though the path is forbidden

Come take a bite, take a bite


I’m growing weaker by the law of attrition

Another fish on the line



And all those creatures in the dark, they are hidden

They wait to strike, wait to strike

I wish that I could tell you, boy, that one day soon we’ll be okay

World has started spinning, I’m a dancer in a pirouette

Eyes closed, hold still, one kiss, all I needed


I’ve grown accustomed to the life I was given

While taking hits from all sides



And day by day, dear boy, I know I’m conditioned

To pay the price, pay the price


Head out of town where they don’t know I’m a sinner

Oh, I could start a new life



I’ll place my bet, oh won’t you pick me a winner

Come roll the dice, roll the dice


I wish that I could tell you, boy, that one day soon we’ll be okay

World has started spinning, I’m a dancer in a pirouette

Eyes closed, hold still, one kiss, all I needed


I wish that I could tell you, boy, that one day soon we’ll be okay

World has started spinning, I’m a dancer in a pirouette

Eyes closed, hold still, one kiss, all I needed


Ah aooh oh oh


That's one truth that I know

I am bought and I’m sold

Think my mind’s gonna blow

Before too long
