Bloc Party Your Visits Are Getting Shorter Lyrics

Your Visits Are Getting Shorter Lyrics

I can see it in your eyes now,

you have come to resent me

Condescension in the silence

Your fingers are tired girl,

how
they falter against my thigh

Your kisses are pining for the lips of
someone else



Your visits getting shorter

Your heart is
getting further from me

Your touch is getting colder

Always
somewhere you need to be



Boys in blue blazers, boys on
motorbikes

Boys in your maths class who'll do anything you ask

You're pulling the trigger and the gun is in my mouth

A subtle
annoyance laced with disgust

When you get older and those boys grow tired
of you

You can come find me, I can never hate you



Your visits
getting shorter

Your heart is getting further from me

Your touch is
getting colder

Always somewhere you need to be



Boys on your
left side, boys on your right

Boys by your locker who'll do anything you
ask



Lets spend the whole day in bed then

Cause if we don't
you'll want to, want to leave

I try to hold something I can

I try
to hold something I can never keep



Your visits getting shorter

Your heart is getting further from me

Your touch is getting colder

Always somewhere you need to be



Boys on your left side, boys on
your right

Boys by your locker who'll do anything you ask
