Second single by British indie rock band Burning Shapes from their forthcoming debut album.
lyrics
Words, you let me down again my guarded truth.
I've tried so hard. My tongues tied up in knots now you want proof.
Volumes a vampire, you're my pistol and I won't shoot.
Hold your words until silence amplifies my love.
Damn, as the bitstream I've been breathing hits the ground.
We've got time, it's the patience in the heart that beats us down.
Volumes a vampire, you're my pistol and I won't shoot.
Hold your words until silence amplifies my love, no no no listen.
Because hearts will falter in the end.
You're my pistol and I won't shoot now.
Mirror to your heart that burns us down, I don't want to listen.
Mirror to your heart that burns us down, I don't want to listen.
Mirror to your heart that burns us down.
Volumes a vampire, you're my pistol and I won't shoot.
Hold your words until silence amplifies my love, no no no listen.
Because hearts will falter in the end.
You're my pistol and I won't shoot now.
