Ten Tonne Skeleton - Royal Blood

Album: Royal Blood

genre: Garage Rock Hard Rock

She took my heart, left me for dead
And drank my blood, told me she said
Our secret’s worth its weight in gold
But that fire we had, now’s turning cold

Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannon ball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone

Where did you go? Where did you run?
I can’t erase what you’ve done
Let’s burn the past, forget the truth
I’m still more than him, I’m still loving you

Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannon ball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone

Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannon ball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone

But I waited too long
For you only
Love has been here and gone
To die slowly
Going under again
So don’t follow me

"We re-wrote it and re-recorded it three times, it's the only track on the album that was difficult to get right. There are so many versions of it, but it didn't click until the last time."
