Massive Attack - Babel (lyrics)

My version of the lyrics of this song. It wasn't easy to find the proper ones, but these are the most accurate lyrics I could do after comparing with so many versions.

Hope you enjoy it :)



Massive Attack - Babel

Said it was your paper
Said it was my Babel
It was my Babel
Tell on paper

Now you know it's over rolling off her shoulder
You can take a ladder to the shadows and forget
Was it how she kissed you and then dismissed you?
Was it purposeful and was it just to hook you in?

Hallucinating, chasing, changing, racing
Breaking, hating till you're lost in I
Where it was your girlfriend, she was not your way
Where you were going, you were on your own

He was quick to burning
He was slow to learning
Though inside you're misted
He still kissed her when she cried
You did your best to replace her
And didn't up and leave her
You befriended the harsh way it ended, now sleep tight

Hallucinating, chasing, changing, racing,
Breathing, breaking if you lost it all
Cause I know you'll do it, we come to do it
And when you do it, I will curve in love

You wanna be the one that shoots that truth to my death
I'm running so far out of my head
This sprain of heart that ripples my day
Can never sail by thinking away
