0:15I'm on the chopping block
0:18Chopping off my stopping thought
0:21Self doubt and selfism
0:24Were the cheapest things I ever bought
0:27When you say it's love
0:31D'you mean the back of love
0:34When you say it's love
0:37D'you mean the back of love
0:41We're taking advantage of
0:44Breaking the back of love
0:47We're taking advantage of
0:51Breaking the back of love
0:54Easier said than done you said
0:57But it's more difficult to say
1:00With eyes bigger than our bellies
1:03We want to but we can't look away
1:07What were you thinking of
1:10When you dreamt that up
1:13What were you thinking of
1:17When you dreamt that up
1:20Taking advantage of
1:23Breaking the back of love
1:27When you're surrounded by a simple chain of events
1:41(behind my eyes behind my eyes)
1:48(your eyes don't lie)
1:53Eventually you'll shack those shackles off
1:59(dreams above those eyes)
2:07(those eyes)
2:08We can't tell our left from right
2:10But we know we love extremes
2:13Getting to grips with the ups and downs
2:15Because there's nothing in between
2:19When you say that's love
2:22D'you mean the back of love
2:26When you say that's love
2:29D'you mean the back of love
2:32Taking advantage of
2:36Breaking the back of love
2:39What were you thinking of
2:48When you dreamt that up
2:58We're taking advantage of
3:01We're breaking the back of love
3:05Breaking the back of love
I'm on the chopping block Chopping off my stopping thought Self doubt and selfism Were the cheapest things I ever bought When you say it's love D'you mean the back of love When you say it's love D'you mean the back of love We're taking advantage of Breaking the back of love We're taking advantage of Breaking the back of love Easier said than done you said But it's more difficult to say With eyes bigger than our bellies We want to but we can't look away What were you thinking of When you dreamt that up What were you thinking of When you dreamt that up Taking advantage of Breaking the back of love When you're surrounded by a simple chain of events (behind my eyes behind my eyes) (your eyes don't lie) Eventually you'll shack those shackles off (dreams above those eyes) (those eyes) We can't tell our left from right But we know we love extremes Getting to grips with the ups and downs Because there's nothing in between When you say that's love D'you mean the back of love When you say that's love D'you mean the back of love Taking advantage of Breaking the back of love What were you thinking of When you dreamt that up We're taking advantage of We're breaking the back of love Breaking the back of love
