The German Affair by Squid The Whale Lyrics
I'm trapped inside of this hotel with fellow soldiers out of hell
And they forced our hands
Our hands are dirty now
Forced our hands, our hands
I found a way around the rules, for company that we could choose
But they forced our hands
We wait like wolves and we strike
We pay for just what we like until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
But now I'm back from the war
And I'll give you so much more until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
I am patiently pacing the room
Only God knows what I'm going to do to you
I feel my blood is rushing through
You can take what you need, and I'll take care of you
We wait like wolves and we strike
We pay for just what we like until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
But now I'm back from the war
And I'll give you so much more until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
I'm not a lonely man
Your normal transaction
I can do this myself
I'm just here for the reaction
So we're both cold, but how you move to my touch
Feels like you might be really getting off
No, that's a bit much
This is love by the hour
I know you don't care
But it's been a little while, so we'll have some to spare
My shrink won't let me run my hands through her hair
So pretend that you're listening
I've been dying to share
To be at my best, I've got to feel the worst
And I know thats not what they call healthy
Words won't come out, talent don't compel
And I can't see the cards they dealt me
Speaking of animals, there's no better way
To make me howl at the moon than you pretending to pray
And with a name that sounds like love in her tongue
I'm a dead man smiling on the way to be hung
I'm a dead man smiling on the way to be hung
I'm a dead man smiling on the way to be hung
We wait like wolves and we strike
We pay for just what we like until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
But now I'm back from the war
And I'll give you so much more until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
What I meant to say is that I read you left to right
Yeah, you know, until it ends
We wait like wolves and we strike
We pay for just what we like
And they forced our hands
Our hands are dirty now
Forced our hands, our hands
I found a way around the rules, for company that we could choose
But they forced our hands
We wait like wolves and we strike
We pay for just what we like until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
But now I'm back from the war
And I'll give you so much more until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
I am patiently pacing the room
Only God knows what I'm going to do to you
I feel my blood is rushing through
You can take what you need, and I'll take care of you
We wait like wolves and we strike
We pay for just what we like until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
But now I'm back from the war
And I'll give you so much more until this hunger ends
I want to love you
I want to love you
I'm not a lonely man
Your normal transaction
I can do this myself
I'm just here for the reaction
So we're both cold, but how you move to my touch
Feels like you might be really getting off
No, that's a bit much
