LYRICS

Bite chunks out of me, you're a shark and I'm swimming,
My heart still thumps as I bleed, and all your friends come sniffing. Triangles are my favourite shape, three points where two lines meet. Toe to toe back to back let's go, my love it's very late,
Till morning comes let's tessellate.
Three guns, one goes off – one's empty – one's not quick enough. One burn – one red – one grin, search the graves while the camera spins. Chunks of you will sink down to seals, blubber rich in mourning, They'll nosh you up yes they'll nosh the love away,
But it's fair to say you will still haunt me.
Triangles are my favourite shape, three points where two lines meet. Toe to toe back to back let's go, my love it's very late,
Till morning comes let's tessellate.
