Devil in the Details - Lyrics - Placebo



I've been wasting all my time
With the devil in the details
I got no energy to fight
He's a fucking pal of mine
That devil in the details

And he's fixing up to take a bite
I don't see the point in trying
I got the devil in the details
He's gonna teach me wrong from right
That fucking pal of mine
The devil in the details
Well, I'm gonna dance with him tonight

All of my wrongs
No more wicked ways
Come back to haunt me, come what may
For all of the songs
I hoped to write someday
Looks like the devil's here to stay

Let me take you for a ride
With the devil in the details
We'll kiss and tremble with delight
Everything is fine
With the devil in the details
We're gonna dance with him tonight

All of my wrongs
No more wicked ways
Come back to haunt me, come what may
For all of the songs
I hoped to write someday
Looks like the devil's here to stay
Looks like the devil's here to stay

Looks like the devil's here to stay

All of my wrongs
No more wicked ways
Come back to haunt me, come what may
For all of the songs
I hoped to write someday
Looks like the devil's here to stay
Looks like the devil's here to stay

Looks like the devil's here to stay

I've been wasting all my time
With the devil in the details

Placebo -'For what it's Worth' Lyrics

Placebo - For what it's Worth

fwiw_cover.jpg


The end of the century
I said my goodbyes
For what it's worth
I always aim to please
But I nearly died
For what it's worth
Come on lay with me
Cos I'm on fire
For what it's worth
I'd tear the sun in three
To light up your eyes

For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth

Broke up the family
Everybody crying
For what it's worth
I have a slow disease
That sucked me dry

For what it's worth
Come on walk with me
Into the rising tide
For what it's worth
Fill the cavity
Your God shaped hole tonight

For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth

For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth

No-one cares when your out on the street
Picking up the pieces to make ends meet
No-one cares when your down in the gutter
Got no friends got no lover
No-one cares when your out on the street
Picking up the pieces to make ends meet
No-one cares when your down in the gutter
Got no friends got no lover

For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
Got no friends
Got no lover.

Placebo 'Soulmates' Lyrics


Soulmates



The sea's evaporated,
Though it comes as no surprise
These clouds we're seeing,
They're explosions in the sky
It seems it's written,
But we can't read between the line

Hush, it's okay, dry your eye
Dry your eye
Soulmate dry your eye
Dry your eye
Soulmate dry your eye,
Soulmates never die

~This one world vision turns us into compromise~
What good's religion when it's each other we despise?
Damn the government damn their killing, damn their lies
~It's okay~

Dry your eyes
Soulmate dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Soulmate dry your eyes,
cos' soulmates never die

Soulmates never die
Soulmates never die
Soulmates never die
Soulmates never die


Never die


Soulmates never die
Soulmates never die
