Suede - Darkest Days

Pouring petrol in your bed
Clutching letters to your breast
You're anaesthetized but you learn to rise again

And I'm not too scared to love you
On the darkest days
And I'm not too scared to watch it fail
And I'm not too scared to watch you let it slip away
And put a wire through our daisy chain

Well you wake me when I scream
Kiss the anger out of me
Well we pushed and cried but we tried and tried again
Pouring petrol over her
Strike a match and watch it burn
We're anaesthetized but we learn to rise again

And I'm not too scared to love you
On the darkest days
And I'm not too scared to watch it fail
And I'm not too scared to watch you let it slip away
And put a wire through our daisy chain

Now I'm not too scared to love you
On the darkest days
And I'm not too scared to watch it fail
Now I'm not too scared to watch you let it slip away
And put a wire through our daisy chain

Suede - This Time

Oh, day after day, every morning
The city sighs and cars collide
Oh we take the train
Through the winter hinterlands and garage bands
An we wash it away, we wash it away this grey
Wash it away

Oh, 'cause this time is yours and mine
Oh hear the city sound
See the lonely crowds
This scene is you and me
Oh in the lazy sun
We're the only ones

Oh, day after day, every morning
The roundabouts will take us out
Past every train in every station
Traffic signs and circle lines
Oh we wash it away, we wash it away this grey
Wash it away

Oh, 'cause this time is yours and mine
Oh hear the city sound
See the lonely crowds
This scene is you and me
Oh in the lazy sun
We're the only ones

Suede - Electricity

We got a love that's cold as stone
We got a love from our violent homes
We got a love and it got no name
We kiss our love with lips like pain
We got a lotta electricity
We got a love like AC/DC
We got a love and it got no shame
We kiss our love with lips like pain
Kissing our love with lips like pain

I said, oh it's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the two of us
Oh it's bigger than you and me
We got a love between us and it’s like electricity

We got a love like a violent mind
We get our love from white white lines
We got a love and it got no name
We kiss our love with lips like pain
We got a love from nowhere towns
We got a love like electric sounds
We got a love and it got no shame
We kiss our love with lips like pain

I said, oh it's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the two of us
Oh it's bigger than you and me
We got a love between us and it's like electricity

Oh it's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the two of us
Oh it's bigger than you and me
We got a love between us and it’s like electricity

Oh it's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the universe
It's bigger than the two of us
Oh it's bigger than you and me
We got a love between us and it’s like electricity
Kissing our love with lips like pain

Suede - It Starts And Ends With You

Like a cause without a martyr,
Like an effigy of balsa,
Like a hairline crack in a radiator,
Leaking life

I shout out but it just spins faster,
I'd crawl out but my knees are water,
I cling on by my nails to this sweet disaster

And I fall to the floor like my strings are cut,
Pinch myself but I don't wake up,
Spit in the wind cause too much is not enough,

It starts and ends with you,
It starts and ends with you

And I've worn so many faces,
Shot my love at fifteen paces,
My inheritance is all the thoughts I can't sweep away,

I shout out but it just spins faster,
I'd crawl out but my knees are water,
I cling on by my nails to this sweet disaster

And then I fall to the floor like my strings are cut,
Pinch myself but I don't wake up,
Spit in the wind cause too much is not enough,

It starts and ends with you,
It starts and ends with you

Shout out but it just spins faster,
Crawl out but my knees are water,
Cling on by my nails to this sweet disaster

And then I crawl to the floor like my strings are cut,
Spit in the wind myself but I don't wake up
Pinch myself cause too much is not enough

It starts and ends with you,
It starts and ends with you,
It starts and ends with you,
It starts and ends with you

I shout out but it just spins faster,
I'd crawl out but my knees are water
I shout out but it just spins faster,
I'd crawl out but my knees are water
I shout out but it just spins faster,
I'd crawl out but my knees are water
I shout out but it just spins faster,
I'd crawl out but my knees are water

Suede - Turn Off Your Brain And Yell

Reveal yourself in your complex ways
Reveal yourself on a so-so Monday it’s all the same
Reveal yourself , show me all your wounds
Come on now and reveal yourself and i’ll bend to you

Can you feel the sunshine when you turn off your brain and yell?
Come on feel the sunshine when you turn off your brain and yell
There’s a million words and a million names, a million names you call yourself but i’ll call you fate
So reveal yourself in your complex ways or reveal yourself on a so-so Monday it’s all the same

Can you feel the sunshine when you turn off your brain and yell?
Come on feel the sunshine when you turn off your brain and yell

Suede - Metal Mickey

Well, she's show, showing it off then
The glitter in her lovely eyes
Show, show, showing it off then
And all the people shake their money in time

She sells hearts
She sells meat
Oh, dad, she's driving me mad
Come see, ay-ay

We shake, shake, shake to the trumpet
And through the slippery city we ride
Skyline swine on the circuit
Where all the people shake their money in time

She sells hearts
She sells meat
Oh, dad, she's driving me mad
Come see, ay-ay

She sells hearts
She sells meat
Oh, dad, she's driving me mad
Come see, ay-ay

She sells hearts
She sells meat
She sells hearts
She sells meat
She sells hearts
She sells meat
She sells hearts
She sells meat
She sells hearts
She sells meat
She sells hearts
She sells...

Suede - Beyond The Outskirts

Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling
And I wonder what's happening outside
Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling
You don't have to tell me I'm right

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts
Come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh well we could sit here by the chain link fence
And talk for hours about Saturday
Oh well I know it makes no difference
To anything much anyway

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling
And I wonder what's happening outside
Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling
I wonder where you are tonight

Suede - The Only Way I Can Love You

I’m not the kind of person who never feels uncertain
So many ways to do what i do wrong
My love has many faces, secret, vicious places,
And all of them are there for you

All day long i’ll hide from the sun i’ll feel like something’s just begun and i’ll love you the only way i can love you
All day long i’l hesitate i’ll turn off the light and stay awake but i’ll love you the only way i can love you

And if i disappoint you, just know i wrote this for you
another way to do what i do wrong
i pretend i don’t adore you
but I’d take a bullet for you
yes it’s a sweet and bitter love

All day long i’ll hide from the sun i’ll feel like something’s just begun and i’ll love you the only way i can love you
All day long i’ll hesitate I’ll turn off the light   and stay awake but i’ll love you the only way i can love you

Suede - She Still Leads Me

Listen...
Sometimes just
When I think of other things
Other things
Think about...
I still

When I think of all the things my mother said
When I think of all the feelings I hid from her
Oh, in many, many ways, I'm still a young boy
Waiting patiently for 4 p.m.

But I loved her with my last breath
And I loved her with a love that was strong as death
And I loved her when she was unkind
And I loved her, I loved her, a dangerous mind

Sometimes when I look up at the sky
She leads me on, she still leads me on
Sometimes when I stare up at the ceiling
She leads me on, she still leads me on

I wonder if her touch will ever fade
Is she waiting in the garden for us to play
Yes, in many many ways I'm still a young boy
With all those questions in my petrol-blue eye

But I loved her with my last breath
And I loved her with a love that was strong as death
And I loved her when she was unkind
And I loved her, I loved her, with a dangerous mind

Sometimes when I look up at the sky
She leads me on, she still leads me on
Sometimes, oh, when I just feel like screaming
She leads me on, she still leads me on

Sometimes when I don't know what is mine
She leads me on, she still leads me on
Sometimes when I can't control my feelings
She leads me on, she still leads me on

One, two
Sometimes when I look up at the sky
She leads me on, she still leads me on

Suede - The Fur & The Feathers

On the platform you are waiting

Your arms are bare

There’s a warning in your eyes

And the cold earth waits for me there

As I hurry past the railings

You brush your dress

And with the mourning in your eyes

And that look of hungriness

And who knows what we’ve begun

We are thrown together

From the moment we are young

The fur and the feathers, the fox and the geese

The thrill of the chase

It’s the thrill of the chase

And I know that there’s a meaning

Beyond the flesh

Well, I’ve found some different feeling

In the grip of your caress

On the platform you are waiting

And my breathing stops

I’m so scared of touching you

But I’m scared to not

And who knows what we’ve begun

We are thrown together

And who knows what we’ll become

The fur and the feathers, the fox and the geese

The thrill of the chase

It’s the thrill of the chase

And who knows what we’ll become

As we brave the weather

From the moment we are young

The fur and the feathers, the fox and the geese

The thrill of the chase

It’s the thrill of the chase

Suede - It's Always the Quiet Ones

Brittle little smile
Pretty petrol eyes
We keep our shadows locked up here inside

Try not to offend
Or to disappoint them
Write them letters you will never send

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers
It's always the quiet ones
It's always the quiet ones

And don't show that you're hurt
You won't be the first
To hide the bruises there under your shirt

Oh and your secret's safe with me
So admit your complicity
And write them words that they will never read

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers
It's always the quiet ones
It's always the quiet ones

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers
It's always the quiet ones
It's always the quiet ones

Suede - Snowblind

The air is still we are struck like matches
Too beautiful to really care what's right
The rumours burn like roman candles
In the broken lights

This love is lifting
The blood is lifting you
Over snowblind barriers
This love is lifting who
This blood is lifting you
I was snowblind for a moment too

There's aniseed and you're laced with kisses
The morning comes with the blackbird song
We find our keys on the kitchen table
And forget what's done

This love is lifting
The blood is lifting you
Over snowblind barriers
This blood is lifting who
This burden's is lifting you
I was snowblind for a moment too

You were frozen by the moment
Thing is what can we do
When I'm frozen by the moment too
All the statues on the tube can't
Hold a candle to you
When you're frozen by the moment too

This blood is lifting
This burden's lifting you
All these snowblind moment
This blood is lifting
This burden's lifting you
I was snowblind for a moment too

Suede - The Asphalt World

I know a girl she walks the asphalt world

She comes to me and I supply her with Ecstasy

Sometimes we ride in a taxi to the ends of the city

Like big stars in the back seat like skeletons ever so pretty

I know a girl she walks the asphalt world

But where does she go?

And what does she do?

And how does she feel when she's next to you?

And who does she love in time-honoured fur?

Is it me or her?

I know a girl she walks the asphalt world

She's got a friend, they share mascara I pretend

Sometimes they fly from the covers to the winter of the river

For these silent stars of the cinema

It's in the blood stream, it's in the liver

I know a girl, she walks the arse felt world

But where does she go?

And what does she do?

And how does she feel when she's next to you?

And who does she love in time-honoured fur?

Is it me or is it her?

With ice in her blood

And a Dove in her head

Well how does she feel when she's in your bed?

When you're there in her arms

And there in her legs

Well I'll be in her head

Cos that's where I go

And that's what I do

And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel

Yes both of us need her, this is the asphalt world

Suede - The Chemistry Between Us

And maybe we're just kids who've grown, and maybe not,

And maybe when we're on our own, we don't have much,

But oh, we are young and not tired of it,

Oh, we are young and easily lead,

Oh, with all the kids getting out of their heads.

Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry?

Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry between us?

And maybe were just Streatham trash, and maybe not,

And maybe we're just capital flash in a stupid love,

But oh, we are young and not tired of it,

Oh we are young and easily lead,

Oh, by all the kids getting out of our heads.

Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry?

Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry between us?

Suede - Down

All the people in your life say you're down

And the strangers in the night say you're down

And the loonies on the right say you're down and you're down

And the ambulances sigh that you're down

And the traffic speeding by says you're down

And the people in your life say you're down and you're down

Hey you chase the day away

Hey you draw the blinds and blow your mind away

And there's a sadness in your style

And there's a blankness in your smile

And the people in the park say you're down

And the strangers in the dark say you're down

And the pissheads in the bars say you're down

And the audiences cry that you're down

And the ambulances sigh that you're down

And the boyfriends in your life say you're down and you're down

Hey you chase the day away

Hey you draw the blinds and blow your mind away

And there's a sadness in your style

And there's a blankness in your smile

Hey you chase the day away

Hey you draw the blinds and blow your mind away

And there's a sadness in your style

And there's a madness in your smile

Suede - The Drowners

Won't someone give me a gun?
Oh, well it's for my brother
Well, he writes the line
Wrote right down my spine
It says, "Oh, do you believe in love there?"

So slow down
Slow down
You're taking me over
And so we drown
So, we drown
Stop taking me over

Won't someone give me some fun?
As the skin flies all around us
We kiss in his room to a popular tune
Oh, real drowners

So slow down
Slow down
You're taking me over
And so we drown
So, we drown
Stop taking me over

Slow down, slow down
You're taking me over
And so we drown
So, we drown
Stop taking me over

You're taking me over
You're taking me over
You're taking me over
You're taking me over
Stop taking me over
You're taking me over
You're taking me over
You're taking me over

Suede - Cold Hands

The playgrounds are empty
The wind it is still
I follow you up to the foot of the hill
My life is the hands of a child
The hands of a child

Put your cold hands on me
Take a spin of the wheel
I'll follow, I'll follow you down
With your cold hands on me
I'm a hare in the cat's eyes
A hare in the cat's eyes

I kicked at the chalk
Under vermillion skies
I said "I don't wanna play these games"
But I followed you and I
And now I want to curl up and die
I'll curl up and die

With your cold hands on me
With a spin of the wheel
I'll follow, I'll follow you down
Put your cold hands on me
I'm a hare in the cat's eyes
A hare in the cat's eyes

Put your cold hands on me
Take a spin of the wheel
I'll follow, I'll follow you down
With your cold hands on me
I'm a hare in the cat's eyes
Now see how a hare dies

Suede - I Don't Know How to Reach You

Remember when we were standing
Dappled and still unshaved
Hiding from hidden cameras
In the shadow of the cranes

The things that I stole I gave you
The things that you said you liked
I bought you those pretty things
But you gave them back

Now I don’t know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away from my mistakes
Try not to look

And I don’k know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away, I fold the page, I close the book

I’d steal a shadow for you
I’d love you like a knife
From the towers I try to call you
From the depths of the power lines

Tell me the things that scare you
Touch me with terror’s flame
Fill me with hesitation, again

Cause I don’t know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away from my mistakes
Try not to look

And I don’k know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away, I fold the page, I close the book

And I don’k know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away, I fold the page, I close the book

I never thought it would happen
I never thought it would happen

Happen to me
Happen to me
Happen to me

Suede - Life Is Golden

The same blood runs through your veins
The same strange way of talking
The same thoughts sink through your pillow
The same crooked smile

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm
You're not alone look into the light and be heard
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

The same blood runs through your veins
But you have the light of your mother
She holds her love to her
Tender breast

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm
You're not alone look into the light and be heard
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

You're not alone when the world puts all the winter in you
Not alone, I'm there in the words that you use
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

And they won't love you tonight
Clap along to the resurrection
Carve your name in my tender skin
With your beautiful words
With your beautiful words

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm
You're not alone look into the light and be heard
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

You're not alone 'cause the same thoughts I have in my head
You're not alone with the city wind in your hair
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden
