Massive Attack - Babel

Say it was your babel Said it was my babel It was my babel Tell all people Now you know it's over rolling off her shoulder You can take a ladder to the shadows and forget Was it how she kissed you and then dismissed you? Was it purposeful and was it just to hook you in? Hallucinating Chasing Changing Racing Breaking Hating Till you lost it all Where was your girlfriend He was not your man Where you were going You are on your own He was quick to burning He was slow to learning Though inside you're misted He still kissed her when she cried And did your best to please her You didn't up and leave her You befriended the harsh way it ended Now sleep tight Hallucinating Chasing Changing Pacing Bracing Breaking ? You wanna be the one that shoots that truth? I'm not dead I'm running so far out of my head This sprain of heart that ripples my day You can never sail by thinking away
