Dirty King

The Cliks Dirty King Lyrics
1.Haunted

I know you're patient
I know you'll wait
But it's complicated
And I can't stay

So pull me over
As I push you away
My head is achin' baby

I know it's a haunted place to go
I, I know I can't take you anymore
I know, I know, I know

Here for the taking
But not to taste
Come here and touch me, baby

I know it's a haunted place to go
I, I know I can't take you anymore
I know, I know, I know

So, why ya sitting here wasting time
While I lose my mind
Say you'll tremble with me
Baby 'till the end
We can't just be friends


2.Dirty King

Hey, I can do the dishes
And I could climb your walls
And I'll clean out my stitches
With rubbing alcohol

Yeah, I can paint your eyelids
And you'll be so pristine
And I can keep your eyes shut
To keep you nice and clean

I am your dirty k-k (3x's)
I am your dirty king, yeah
I am your dirty king

Hey I can be your boyfriend
And I could be your all
And I'll keep all your secrets
Inside the bedroom walls

Well I can be so humble
And you'll be so naive
And I can be the motor
You'll be the gasoline

I am your dirty k-k (3x's)

I am your dirty king, yeah
I am your dirty king
I am your dirty king, yeah
I am your dirty king

I am your dirty king, yeah
I am your dirty king
I am your dirty king, yeah
I am your dirty king


3.Not Your Boy

Everything's so loud
When you are coming down
Get lost in the crowd
when you're not thinking
When the silence disappears inside
The only thing that won't subside
The sirents ring to tell me
I've been sinking
Man, I'm sinking

Everything's so loud
When you can't touch the ground
Bothered, but I'm proud that you can't see me
When the voices disappear
There's nothing left inside
That I can hear
The fear subsides
Whenever I've been drinking
Oh I'm sinking

I'm not your boy
I'm not your boy
I'm not yours
I don't think I've ever been

Everything's profound
When you are on a cloud
Riddled by this crowd
That just can't feel me
When the darkness disappears
The only thing inside that I can see
Is in the lie that tells me
I've been dreaming
Am I dreaming?

I'm not your boy
I'm not your boy
I'm not yours
I don't think I've ever been

Heart beat
servant
Brace your love
Win me, baby
Dreaming of
I'm not your boy


4.Red And Blue

I'd hoped to turn your world around
But you let go
You changed your mind
It's hard enough to see this through
Why can't you look me in the eye?

And what did you think I'd turn into?
And what did you think I'd do for you?
You'd cut off my hands
To hide the truth
And make me the liar inside you

I know we have to burn this down
I see we're flying way too high
And now I see, so dangerous
You're always trying to take what's mine

And what did you think that I would do?
And while you paint it red, I paint it blue
I'll cut off my hands to bare the truth
Forever the liar inside you

I'm not changing for anybody else
Cuz' every time I do
It seems I lose myself

I'd hoped to turn your world around
But you let go
You changed your mind
But now I cannot see this through
Already wasted too much time

And now there is nothing I could do
You still paint it red
And I'll still feel blue
I'm keeping my hands
That's what I'll do
And show you the liar
I'll show you the liar
Inside you


5.Henry

Can you hear the sound
Of your mother calling
When she let you out
And the leaves were falling

Chase, chase, chase
You can chase it away
I can't see you but you're ok
Henry, are you coming?
Chase, chase, chase
You can chase it away
I can't see you but you're ok
Henry, are you coming?

Buried in the ground
Of your mother's garden
Strike without a sound
Can't you hear her calling?

Chase, chase, chase
You can chase it away
I can't see you but you're ok
Henry, are you coming?
Chase, chase, chase
You can chase it away
I can't see you but you're ok
Henry, are you coming?

Can you see him
Running faster
Coming out of the dark


6.Emily

Thunder between them is all you can hear
He feels frightened
Hold on dear gentleman
One day you'll smile again
Some say, never

Hold on memory
She sits silently
Tongue-tied tragedy
Hold on Emily
He'll be coming soon

Harder to see them when all you can hear
Is this fighting
Hard times for merry men
Say that you'll smile again
Some say, never

Hold on memory
She sits silently
Tongue-tied tragedy
Hold on Emily
Emily, oh

If you cannot see
Over this horizon
Have some faith in my sun
I'm coming home,
Coming home
Coming home


7.Career Suicide

So, you've come
Look down, my angel eyes
Hold my gun
My heart can't recognise home

And you'll say run
I think I heard you come undone

You lose your way
I know I can't feel that way

You say shut up
Don't let it shine

I'll take your heart if
You take mine

Break down in defence
To your consequence
Break down to the sound
I know I hear it now

What's on your mind?
(2x's)

You say shut up
Don't let it shine
I'll take your heart if
You take mine

Break down in defence
To your consequence
Break down to the sound
I know I hear it now
I know I hear it now


8.Love Gun

My heart goes boom
Your indiscretion fills the room
Like a mistake
A jaded vow ready to break

You make the call
My back is up against the wall
You'll have your way
I'm not ready
Not ready

With your love gun
Pointed at me
With your love gun
Pointed at me

I saw the fire
You'll pay a fortune in denial
But what you say
I know you and I know the way

To your front door
You harbour what you're keeping score
You play the game
You're ready
So ready

Can you see me
Crawling inside out
Can you see a shadow of a doubt?


9.We Are The Wolverines

Hard time
Come closer
It tight
My shoulder
Hang up
This picture
You wanna hunt down
So you don't linger

You said it was over
You said you were running out
But isn't she clever
The way she fuss about
The way she fuss about

We all come from the wheel and fire
We are, we are, we are the wolverines
Burning in your heart's desire
We are, we are, we are the wolverines

I'd never have it any other way
Waiting to stand outside your door
I can't believe that I just heard you say
You want it done, but you want more

You said it was over
You said you were running out
But isn't she clever
The way she fuss about
The way she fuss about

We all come from the wheel and fire
We are, we are, we are the wolverines
Burning in your heart's desire
We are, we are, we are the wolverines
We are, we are, we are, we are,
We are, we are, we are, we are

Hold on
Your breath
Let you go


10.Falling Overboard

So, the masquerade
Cannot be played upon the stage
You gotta go
There's too much cryin'
I've been better than before
But I'm dying

You go, you go, you go, you know
You know it's not working
You try, you try, you try, you try
To keep yourself out of it
You know, you know, you know, you go
It's not working
You try, you try, you try, you try
But you're falling over
Falling overboard

So, the masquerade
Cannot be played upon the stage
You gotta go
There's been too much cryin'
I've been better than before
But I'm dying

Je me sens vide
Tuis-je te vire
Aurevoir

You go, you go, you go, you go
You know it's not working
You try, you try, you try, you try
To keep yourself out of it
You know, you know, you know, you go
It's not working
You try, you try, you try, you try
But you're falling overboard
Falling over board

Vous et faux
You're fake
You cheat and you lie


11.Animal Farm

Hang tight
You say
Just turn the other way
Your lie
My name
A soul without a face

Now I feel this
Come full circle
And I want you to know

Hell isn't far behind you now
It's waiting, waiting
If I could just reach you somehow
I'd change them
Turn them inside out

My head
Hangs out
With all discord about
You smile and say
God just made you that way

Now I see you
As the culprit
And I want you to know

I can't let go
This much I know
Hold up my bleeding heart
And feed it to your soul

My suffering
Will end now on this plain
Until you change
Don't start this heart again

Now I feel this
Come full circle
And I want you to know
