Bloc Party Positive Tension Lyrics

Positive Tension Lyrics

He said that you're just as boring as everyone else 

When you tut and you moan 

And you squeal and you squelch 

He said you're just as boring as everyone else 

Nothing ever happens 



Things replace things 

Days replace days 

Things replace things 



She said I'm going to use my teeth and my claws 

She said I'm going to use my teeth and my claws 

She said I'm going to use my teeth and my breasts 

I'm gonna make it happen 

She said 



Run run run run run run 

And you cannot run or ever, ever escape 

And you cannot hide or ever run away 

Something glorious is about to happen 

The reckoning 



They say you're just as boring as everyone else 

When you tut and you moan 

And you squeal and you squelch 

They say you're just as boring as everyone else 

Stuck past timing 

The fear and the yearning 

The fear and the consumption 

The fear and the yearning 

It's gonna eat you alive 

They go... 



Run run run run run run 

And you cannot hide or ever, put it away 

And you cannot run or ever, ever escape 

Something glorious is about to happen 

The reckoning 



They go... 

They say... 



Why'd you have to get so hysterical? 

Success, success, success is over 

Why'd you have to get 

So fucking useless 



Play it cool boy 

Play it cool
