Broad-Shouldered Beasts

Broad-shouldered beasts fill the sky

Manhattan beats at the night

But you are wrapped up in wire

Curled up in fright

So I took you to the city for the night

To dance under dizzy silver lights

But for a moment you were wild
With abandon like a child just a moment

But wasnt it you who said I was not free

And wasnt it you who said I needed peace

And now its you whos floored by fear of it all
And its alright
Take it out on me

And its alright

Take it out on me

These apartment walls are paper thin

And no one is trying to listen in

What to hear our doubts
Hear our whispered shouts they dont care

Wasnt it you who said I was not free

And wasnt it you who said I needed peace

And now its you whos floored by fear of it all
And its alright

Take it out on me

And its alright
Take it out on me

But when you feel the world wrapping round your neck

Feel my hand round yours

And when you feel the world wrapping round your neck
Dont succumb

But its alright
Take it out on me

And its alright

Take it out on me

And its alright
Take it out on me
