Out Getting Ribs by King Krule Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And hate runs through my blood
Well, my tongue was in love
But my heart was left above
I've got to be leaving now
I thought I'd never be shot down
But, girl, I'm black and blue
So beaten down for you
Well, I'm beaten down and blue
[Chorus]
Don't break away
I waste away
Don't break away
[Verse 2]
And lay me out across the grey
Hours I should have kept at bay
Well, I had no chance to get away
I can't escape my own escape
Even more when it's sweet to the taste
Red stairs lead sense astray
I look up and seek for faith
Oh, but girl, just lean over and say
Well lay me down
Pull me out
Well, take my crown again
He's submerged in doubt
[Verse 3]
But wait, I make my last request
See, this could be the best
But, blue, I need to rest
See, I been broken down
So much has lost it now
I just stop and say
Girl, don't you worry ‘bout a thing
Baby blue
And hate runs through my blood
Well, my tongue was in love
But my heart was left above
I've got to be leaving now
I thought I'd never be shot down
But, girl, I'm black and blue
So beaten down for you
Well, I'm beaten down and blue
[Chorus]
Don't break away
I waste away
Don't break away
[Verse 2]
And lay me out across the grey
Hours I should have kept at bay
Well, I had no chance to get away
I can't escape my own escape
Even more when it's sweet to the taste
Red stairs lead sense astray
I look up and seek for faith
Oh, but girl, just lean over and say
Well lay me down
Pull me out
Well, take my crown again
He's submerged in doubt
[Verse 3]
But wait, I make my last request
See, this could be the best
But, blue, I need to rest
See, I been broken down
So much has lost it now
I just stop and say
Girl, don't you worry ‘bout a thing
Baby blue
