Jamie T - Turn On The Light Lyrics






You run down the strip, down the strip right through me
The rain on the windscreen, blistering the stop sign
Turn in the rubies your mother did buy you
Through this land I roar

You made me bold like a whore, wish I'd never been born
Got a good looking corpse hanging on to me tightly
Bless this strip as it runs right through me
Bless this strip as it runs right through me

She fades to the background, proof reads a story
Kills all the characters and crosses out the heroine
Kissing an American, she told me she bought me
Through this land I roar

She made me bold like a whore, wish I'd never been born
Got a good looking corpse hanging on to me tightly
Bless this strip as it runs right through me
Bless this strip as it runs right through me

Love, turn on the light
It's so dark in there, inside her life
And I know, what it's like
To feel loved and to know like your self

She dragged all the blood to the back of my brain
Filled to the line, smoked on an elephant's tusk
Punch drunk, bitten, and bleeding I became
Tame, feeble in the heroine one of us
And I hear mutants screaming
And I ride on the crest of waves
And I stuck as a joker's feeling
And I still hear demons breathing, and

Love, turn on the light
It's so dark in there, inside her life
And I know, what it's like
To feel loved and to know like your self

The sun had dropped, I'm sweating in a carcass
I've given up on me, I've given up on Marcus
I'm carrying my casket, looking for the enemy
I'm down on my knees, surrendering to Valerie
And all, I feel my head is racing
And I, feel my shoulders bracing
I, know I'm sick to my bones
And I, know I can't get back home now

Love, turn on the light
It's so dark in there, inside her life
And I know, what it's like
To feel loved and to know like your self

Take me far, from this sweet city stench
Where friends all betray each other
And I'm just another lover to a
Take me far, from this sweet city stench
Where friends all betray each other
And I'm just another lover to a friend
To a friend, to a friend, to a friend
Oh take me far, oh take me far, oh take me far, oh take me far

    so incredible!!  His songs all have massive reference to opiate and benzo  use.  Thro such discrete metaphors he manages to sum it all up so concisely and articulately. What a fucking genius.
