The Common View - Afterglow Lyrics

Oh your body
Get you in trouble after the party
Your mind is racing on it's not easy
Oh don't you know that you always like it
And I spend all my time on
Saving you from your emotions
You say you won't get tied down
But Look at where you are now
Can't help yourself, no

Your love's emphatic
It's automatic
You can try to fight it
But you know how that goes
And every day you
Walk the tightrope
Knowing that you'll fall

All the boys are slags
You never get the point
They're always back
Stealing from a jar of broken hearts
You know I'm right
It's tearing you apart
You did it all for desire
But got too close to the fire
And you knew they'd burn you
When will you ever learn to
Help yourself

Your love's emphatic
It's automatic
You can try to fight it
But you know how that goes
And every day you
Walk the tightrope
Knowing that you'll fall

You always were that bit of fun
That little joke for everyone
Oh can't you see you're so much more
I guess that's just your fatal flaw
