lyrics
I wanna get some sleep but the moon won't let me
The curve of her lips slowly driving me crazy
I feel all my seconds passing me by as she blinks
As I get pulled under by creepers made of silk
She lured me in a trap I don't want to escape from
In my heart there's a gap whenever she's gone
Memories of angels as I catch her sweet scent
I Knew I was no devil now I know I am no saint
There used to be a path I wanted to follow
And nothin' ever last but I don't want to let go
Light flickers on her skin as she stares into the blur
Looking for something I wish I could give her
Each of her harmless flaunts is like a knife cutting me
Cause everything she wants is everything I can't be
We can't make a pledge, so I just walk in her shadow
On the tiny edge between a yes and a no
You don't know right from wrong when you're between love and lust
And I knew all along I'd finally betray her trust
So I swallow my pride and I cough up my shame
But half my words are lies and the others are in vain
What does she want from me ? To cry the tears of remorse ?
To tell her I'm sorry, that she's the star that leads north ?
Is that the begining of the end or the end of the beginning ?
Should I make amends I ain't even believin' ?
In them eyes... I get crushed under the weight of my years
In them eyes... Everything I believed in disappears
In them eyes... The kind of fire you'd die to be near
When the coldest of nights numbs everything but your fear
In them eyes... I catch a glimpse of all that could have been
In them eyes... I'm on my knees begging for just one more sin
In them eyes... The kind of ocean you dream of drowning in
When the sparks of desire are eating you from within
The curve of her lips slowly driving me crazy
I feel all my seconds passing me by as she blinks
As I get pulled under by creepers made of silk
She lured me in a trap I don't want to escape from
In my heart there's a gap whenever she's gone
Memories of angels as I catch her sweet scent
I Knew I was no devil now I know I am no saint
There used to be a path I wanted to follow
And nothin' ever last but I don't want to let go
Light flickers on her skin as she stares into the blur
Looking for something I wish I could give her
Each of her harmless flaunts is like a knife cutting me
Cause everything she wants is everything I can't be
We can't make a pledge, so I just walk in her shadow
On the tiny edge between a yes and a no
You don't know right from wrong when you're between love and lust
And I knew all along I'd finally betray her trust
So I swallow my pride and I cough up my shame
But half my words are lies and the others are in vain
What does she want from me ? To cry the tears of remorse ?
To tell her I'm sorry, that she's the star that leads north ?
Is that the begining of the end or the end of the beginning ?
Should I make amends I ain't even believin' ?
In them eyes... I get crushed under the weight of my years
In them eyes... Everything I believed in disappears
In them eyes... The kind of fire you'd die to be near
When the coldest of nights numbs everything but your fear
In them eyes... I catch a glimpse of all that could have been
In them eyes... I'm on my knees begging for just one more sin
In them eyes... The kind of ocean you dream of drowning in
When the sparks of desire are eating you from within

about
Gentlemen Bastards Bois Colombes, France
L'amitié et la fête auraient pu suffire. Mais un jour de printemps 2010, les futurs Gentlemen Bastards se disent que ce Jam
est celui de trop. Ils feront des chansons, leurs chansons. Ils seront un groupe.
Nourris par la vie parisienne et leurs expériences d'élèves du supérieur, les GBs chantent une musique virile, sans détour, et pleine, ils l'espèrent, de surprises... en mode mineur.
