Embryos Songtext

von Turin Brakes

Same, same, same, same
Same orbit every night
Well, time lapsed, I'm your satellite
I'm a shooting star with the brakes on
You know that I would always return

Same, same, same, same
What's your use to lock me in?
They're the same words that make me spin
No breath of air would blow our way
All is dark and leave us sun ray

So love, won't you come and bring me a story?
Do your handshake for death or glory
You never know what spring may throw
Some daffodil or some embryo

Walk, walk, walk, walk
I'm walking over cityscapes
Oh man, I'm showing my city scars
So finally I can draw my fate
But it's last artist at the last bar

So I, I put, put, put, put
Put you underneath my arm
Just to hear your heart purr
It burns warm like the sun
It burns bright like magnesium

So love, won't you come and bring me my story?
Do your handshake for death or glory
You never know what spring may throw
Some daffodil or some embryo

Ah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da

If this world's just some big plastic trick
We'll make rainbows from what's left of it
Before we freeze over, the numbers we hold in our bones
Breathe underwater, go where the river goes

Love, won't you come and bring me a story?
Do your handshake for death or glory
You never know what spring may throw
Some daffodil or some embryo
