Album: Vices And Virtues (2011)

Stall Me

Fall to your knees
And kiss the ring,
The crowd's rejoicing
All of my dreams wake up to despise
A world I once loved

Why would you bring me in
If you knew what you'd become
So curse everyone and everything,
even the sun

Stall me, stall me, I'm all in
Stall me, call me out or break me in
A dark room and the wallflower
got in at the party
She's got four on the floor
She's waiting to kickstart me
So just stall me

I had a rosy dream
You gave up on you
And I gave up on me
Well love came along and said,
'€œLeave them be.'€
We were wrecked on every rocky tasted
Light a cork my pretty little angel
I'm singing to empty bottles everywhere, everywhere

Stall me, stall me I'm all in
Stall me, call me off or break me in
A dark room and the wallflower
got in at the party
She's got four on the floor
She's waiting to kickstart me
So just stall me

She counts on stars, astrology
My moods are mercurial
But I know Mercury
Don't hold your breath
Baptized in the river of you
Hold on death, the moon,
the stars a sliver of you

Stall me, stall me I'm all in
Stall me, call me off or break me in
A dark room and the wallflower got in at the party
tall me, stall me I'm all in
Stall me, call me off or break me in
A dark room and the wallflower got in at the party

She's got four on the floor
She's waiting to kickstart me
She said she's got more where that came from to spark me
So just stall me
