  • There's a girl in the crowd and she's bawling her eyes out
    Only girl in the town with her fingers in eyelids
    And we're all fine in the back of your mind if we do what we like
    Then we could be with you tonight and if we bleed you dry
    And we're alright in the back of our minds if we do what we like
    Then we could be with you tonight and if they bleed you dry
    Taken half the tide, taken all your tide and if we bleed you dry
    Bleed, you dry, we've taken half your tide and if we bleed you dry

    You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
    Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
    You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today
    You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
    Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
    You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today

    There's a hand in the till still believing what she sells
    Only girl in the town with her fingers in eyelids
    And we're all fine in the back of your mind
    If we do what you like then we could be with you tonight
    And if they bleed you dry, and taken half the tide, and taken all your tide

    You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
    Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
    You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today
    You are the bearer of a womb without love, you could have had it all
    Is that what you said, is that what you said on a low ride
    You said, in your hands you'll stay all with me today

    Bleed you dry, I'm taking half your tide and if I bleed you dry Writer/s: Andrew James MacFarlane, Craig Orzel, James Graham, Mark Gerard Devine
