Deep in the city, where no one sleeps at night
Witness callous conversation
Balanced on a knife
Keep your mouth shut, mouth shut, mouth shut
For silence they scream
To see the things no man should ever see

We’re both invited, and you’ll barely be missed
Taking back to the first night chasing lovers first kiss
And you’re thinking of leaving
When I'm kicking and screaming (when I'm kicking and screaming)
Silence repeats itself

Size 5’s in the air
Lights in the rear view
She couldn’t concentrate
But these back seats look much more safe

I hold all of this to you
Like your famous last line
We’re slowly drinking
Cheap red wine
Keep your eyes closed tight

Throw it into fifth, give me so much more
This is nothing new
Came so close to keep thinking
Is this nightmare over
Feet off the floor
Nails through the bed
Crying in lay-bys
Throw it into fifth and you’ll see that there's
Nothing to lose

Did it strike a nerve
Being “stabbed in the back”
Double down for six
Even split, then she throws it back

There’s no chance to say goodbye

Throw it into fifth, give me so much more
This is nothing new
Came so close to keep thinking
Is this nightmare over?
Feet off the floor
Nails through the bed, crying in lay-bys
There’s no chance to say goodbye
Throw it into fifth and you’ll see that there's nothing to lose
