Babel Lyrics - Massive Attack

1 Say it was your babel

2 Say it was my babel

3 It was my babel

4 Tell all people

5 Now you know it's over

6 Rolling off her shoulder

7 You can take a ladder to the shadows and forget

8 Was it how she kissed you

9 And then dismissed you?

10 Was it purposeful or was it just to hook you in?

11 Hallucinating

12 Chasing, changing

13 Racing, breaking

14 Hating till you lost it all

15 Where was your girlfriend?

16 She was not going

17 Where you were going

18 You are on your own

19 He was quick to burning

20 He was slow to learning

21 Though inside you're misted, he still kissed her when she cried

22 And did your best to please her

23 You did you end up and leave her

24 You befriended the harsh way it ended, now sleep tight

25 Hallucinating

26 Chasing, changing

27 Pacing, bracing

28 Breaking till you lost it all

29 ??? to see

30 She beat you to it

31 and then you do it

32 Now you wanna be the one that shoots that truth ???

33 I'm running so far out of my head

34 This sprain of heart that ripples my day

35 You can never sail by thinking away
