Paul Banks - Over My Shoulder Lyrics

Over my shoulder there's a heart that suffers deep
The sudden exposure makes my mind recall the scene
Over my shoulder there's a lonely heart that beats
So you only know me like the shoreline knows the sea

Erase the stone just like beginnings
We make our home above the stars, again
Behold!

Over my shoulder there's a man that doesn't speak
No expectations, they will only make you weak
So you only know me like the shoreline knows the sea
Over my shoulder there are phantoms, indiscreet

We chase the tombs as the sight begins
We gain these open silent showers in

So behold the science, your ever feelings to play
The science, there's a life outside
Where our lucky passions reign

You only hold me
(You only hold me)
You only hold me like the canyon holds the stream
You only hold me
You only hold me like the canyon holds the stream
You only hold me
You only hold me like the canyon holds the stream

Relax, we're safe and that's all that matters
Be still under life outside, when all our passions rage
Rage
