A brilliant song from faithless. It's the soundtrack of the movie cruel intentions...I didn't like the movie much though. The lyrics follow:
Change around the words that you say,
To suit me fine.
Predictable behavior,
I crave ya.
I'm driven.
You're my only living saviour.
Sometimes I hate ya,
But I'm whipped.
Being deadhead down to the crypt.
Retricted like a conscript,
You love to bully.
I place the blame with you,
Fully.
Change around the words that you say,
To suit me fine.
Make them mine.
Don't panic.
There's only we two left on the planet.
I can explain.
I know it happened again,
It's manic.
I'm standing in the flame
Trying to fan it.
You don't know what you've got till it's gone.
And by the edge of the night
Where nobody belongs, through this junk,
And that's where you come.
Change around the words that you say,
To suit me fine.
Make them mine.
Listen to the voice in your head,
It makes no sense.
Take a rest... (echo)
I'm addicted.
I have a demon for a wife.
He delights in your pretty face and he hates my life.
Takes notes on how to provoke past grief.
Makes my teeth decay with the last of my self-belief.
Feed all day from underneath
Like a thief.
I'm left weak
Barely able to speak.
I seek nothing but constant supply.
I can read every look in your eyes.
I live with a lie.
Baby, our love will never die
Or, maybe it's the last time I make you cry.
Make my appeal like the condemned.
Let's go away for the weekend.
Your life I will steal and descend with it into the pit.
I'm addicted..
Change around the words that you say,
To suit me fine.
I'm addicted..
Listen to the voice in your head,
It makes no sense.
Take a rest... (echo)
I'm addicted.. (5x) (4th time from Chorus)
I have a little problem.
I have a demon for a wife.
He delights in your pretty face and he hates my life.
Takes notes on how to provoke past grief.
Makes my teeth decay with the last of my self-belief.
Change around the words that you say,
To suit me fine.
Make them mine.
I'm addicted.. (7x, also at background of next part)
Listen to the voice in your head,
It makes no sense.
Take a rest... (echo)
My favourite part is this:
"Change around the words that you say,
To suit me fine.
Make them mine.
Listen to the voice in your head,
It makes no sense.
Take a rest..."
Sometimes people find themselves stuck in relationships where love and hate is interchangeable...The lyrics are so powerfull it gives me the goozebumps every time I hear it. It's really sad when you get in fights and try to talk things over and you get stuck in an infinite loop changing the meaning of each other's words again and again till you close to yourself and start realizing that nobody in the world can understand you...To take it a bit further beyond relationships this line could also refer to propaganda. Change around the words that you say to suit me fine....make then mine....till your minds get tired and fall asleep and take whatever is served to you. Brilliant song thumbs up...I hope I'll listen to it live sometime. Enjoy!
I'm the opposite of you! I loved the movie but didn't really like this song.
