lirik lagu the lafontaines – release the hounds
[verse 1}
i’m releasing the hounds
closed captions, fall at my feet
king of the rules, rise in the face of defeat
black magic mixed with the gravel and dirt
bamming your boys up until some feelings get hurt
they’re all talking but it’s nothing but lies
take the shades off d-ckhead and open your eyes
caught in the hot sun, perched up on the fence
until the weight of the punch broke through the defense
blood spilled, spilled in a literal sense
sit with a lit cigarette and chew the suspense
sleep walking, conversation is cheap
plus i’ve seen him bench-press all his muscles are weak
so pick and choose
get hung up like some tennis shoes
grimmest views, by ‘yes men’ and bottled booze
win and lose, not really up for discussion
said he was ahead but your left with a concussion
[chorus]
always on top but now i am down for the day
and i won’t come up ’til i’ve had my say
never alone so i know my weight can be thrown
and i’m sinking my teeth deep into the bone
[verse 2 ]
lead me into the wild
i feel confident scaling the gates
my animal vote p-ssed off, raising the stakes
never enough, n-body got the stomach to rise
men with empty promises and colourful ties
pay attention, and maybe focus a little
when the sirens arrived, n-body blowing the whistle
lost in translation of my currency, cheap
who let the f-cking wolves be in charge of the sheep
blood spilled, spilled in the literal sense
let the battle commence, n-body posing defense
keep talking, your conversation is weak
and if you send a squad round we can put them to sleep
so pick and choose
get hung up like some tennis shoes
grimmest views, by ‘yes men’ and bottled booze
win and lose, not really up for discussion
said he was ahead but your left with a concussion
[chorus]
always on top but now i am down for the day
and i won’t come up ’til i’ve had my say
never alone so i know my weight can be thrown
and i’m sinking my teeth deep into the bone
[verse 3]
just another chemical, chemical, under my skin
drown myself even when i’m trying to swim
it’s a ritual delivered in a bottle of sin
never alone, staring at my sinister twin
chemical, chemical filter my life
set me up another bottle full of my friend
cause it’s a ritual, always on the tip of my tongue
individual, beautiful, keeping me young
running in concrete, numb to the touch
you’re my shoulder to cry on, hold me up like a crutch
you’re my courage at midnight, you soften the fall
never talk or ask questions, you’re always on call
don’t be so p-ssive aggressive, you’re so mighty possessive
you’re so jilted a lover, it’s kind of f-cking excessive
you make it look good though, too good to deny
and i will never ever go down when i’m flying so high
that’s why…
[chorus]
always on top but now i am down for the day
and i won’t come up ’til i’ve had my say
never alone so i know my weight can be thrown
and i’m sinking my teeth deep into the bone
[outro]
and the teeth were white??
and i leave without doubt??
and i feel like i might sink my teeth into the bone
chemical, chemical, filter my life
fill me up another bottle full of my friend
it’s a ritual, always on the tip of my tongue
individual, beautiful, keeping me young
