Bloc Party. - Your Visits Are Getting Shorter Lyrics






I can see it in your eyes now
You have come to resent me
Condescension in the silence
Your fingers are tired, girl
How they falter against my thigh
Your kisses are pinning the lips of someone else

Your visits getting shorter
Your heart is getting farther from me
Your touch is getting colder
Away somewhere you need to be

Boys in blue blazers, boys ...
Boys in your math class, who'll do anything you ask

You're pulling the trigger and the gun is in my mouth
A subtle annoyance laced with disgust
When you get older and all those boys grow tired of you
You can come find me, I can never hate you

Your visits getting shorter
Your heart is getting farther from me
Your touch is getting colder
Away somewhere you need to be

Boys on your left side, boys on your right
Boys by your locked who'll do anything you ask

Let's spend the whole day in bed then
'Cause if we don't, you'll want to, want to leave
I try to hold something I can
I try to hold something I can never keep

Your visits getting shorter
Your heart is getting farther from me
Your touch is getting colder
Away somewhere you need to be

Boys on your left side, boys on your right
Boys by your locked, who'll do anything you ask

    This is so good. Eighties, but it could so easily be a full orchestra in backing. You wish it was cello.

  21. S.... M....

    This song is just really good. A Weekend in the City and Intimacy have aged incredibly well.

  22. P.... O....

  32. e.... ....

    Oh my God I though I was the only person that heard that!

  33. L.... M....

    If only you had the free will to choose not to listen to this. I apologise on behalf of everyone here for tracking you down, kidnapping you, tying you to a chair and forcing you to listen to this song. I also apologise on behalf of your mum for not having you aborted to avoid having you born into a world where there are going to be things you don't like. Again, sorry.

  34. t.... ....

    Reminds me of Johnny Cash - Cry Cry Cry

  35. V.... W....

    "your visits are getting shorter, your pie is getting further from me..."

  36. D.... S....

    What is kele saying at the beggining?

  37. M.... ....

    You have STEREOTYPICALLY bad grammar. Four words, and two of them are completely wrong. Fuck. C average; not so hot. Ever heard of a contraction? You are=you're.

    M.... ....

    Myshkin1980 cool, get a life

  38. A.... ....

    nice one mate, useful input

  39. D.... B....

    the intro is awesome, then it gets a little awkward

  40. T.... ....

    Yeah I f***ing love the sound of their new album, someone compiled all of their live performances to make a pre-release live version of the album on youtube, look it up.

  41. F.... D....

    I agree with you, but they experimented a lot of different sounds and this is not bad for a band: it keeps the sound evolving.
    However they turned back to their roots with the latest songs.
    Check them out: more instruments, less electro tunes, it kinda brings me back to SIlent Alarm.

  42. T.... ....

    Yes, in terms of intimacy, there is undoubtedly a heavy emphasis on electronic elements. Within Silent Alarm and Weekend in the City there were electronics elements, but it was by no means the primary emphasis....

    This song goes even farther than intimacy. Doesn't even sound like Bloc Party any more (all IMO)

  43. H.... A....

    A lot of their songs have electronic elements- this is nothing out of the ordinary for them.

  44. c.... s....

    Why i'm so adict to this song?

  45. G.... F....

    such a unique and addictive sound

  46. l.... ....

    this was on the normal version in the US

  47. T.... ....

    @tonyttt31 yes, this is too far electronic for the rest of the album and for Bloc Party's sound. Sounds like dance/pop... a bit like one more chance.

  48. t.... ....

    @TheSummerService Do you think that Mercury or Ares fit the album better than this song?

  49. T.... ....

    @kingedd42 a) I don't agree, this song should not on any album IMO and b) I think they made the right choice with their B-Sides; despite being AWESOME songs, they would not fit in with the rest of the album. It's about making an album, not a compilation disc of their best songs.

  50. D.... ....

    @blahblahblaaful have you listened to them? most of their music is different, and all of it good

    P.S throwing the word gay around makes you look like a trolling, close minded jerk- advice for your next bout of randomly looking up songs and saying something bad about them, or you could get a life

  51. S.... P....

    @blahblahblaaful You suck ! keep your words for you , you dont like , dont listen ;)

  52. A.... Q....

    @BoopBopBeeBop you just messaged yourself ???

  53. m.... ....

    Je l'adore, j'adore ce groupe !!!
