Like Eating Glass

Bloc Party · Silent Alarm [2005]

It's so cold in this house

Open mouth swallowing us

The children sent home from school

Will not stop crying



And I know that you're busy too

I know that you care

You got your finger on the pulse

You got your eyes everywhere

And it hurts all the time when you don't return my calls

And you haven't got the time to remember how it was



It's so cold in this house

It's so cold, in this house



I can't eat, I can't sleep

I can't sleep, I can't dream

An aversion to light

Got a fear of the ocean



Like drinking poison, like eating glass

Like drinking poison, like eating glass

Like drinking poison, like eating glass

Like drinking poison, like eating!



It's so cold in this house

It's so cold in this house

It's so cold in this house

It's so cold in this bed



Like drinking poison, like eating glass

Like drinking poison, like eating glass

Like drinking poison, like eating glass

Like drinking poison, like eating!



Ow!



Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Inside of me!



Ow, Ow!



We've got crosess on our eyes

Been walking into the walls again



We've got crosses on our eyes

Been walking into the furniture



We've got crosses on our eyes

For richer, for poorer, for better, for worse



We've got crosses on our eyes

We've been walking into the furniture
