Heat and Hot Water (Passion Pit Remix) - ARMS

Aah-Aah-Aah-Ooh
Dark never came
And we spoke in the sand 'til we ran out of things to say, oh no
When they served you on a plate
They were frowning and bowing their heads like birds of prey, oh no
I was taking my time when the stars aligned
You were holding my hand like a bottle
And it tingled right down to the tips and then it shattered our bones
I give peace when feeding the beast
Wherever we go
In the darkness summon an attempt to die alone
But all the people in the darkness
Cower in their beds and die alone
Aah-Aah-Aah-Ooh

Nightly attacks
Rip the meat from your back when you're sleeping warm and close, oh no
You've been feeding it your ideas
Even though it doesn't like the taste
And they burn, and they grow
While you're waiting outside on your sister's roof
For the light to stream out of the garden
I'll be lying face down in an empty pool
As the rain falls hard on the bottom
And we're wasting our time
If you cant be kind
I'll take the flashlight down to the basement
It'll swallow me whole

Blood on your face
You were born for the chase
Wherever we go
In the darkness
Coming soon to taking things as signs
Wherever we go
In the darkness
Growing fins and breaking limbs in time
Wherever we go
In the darkness
Nothing's going to ease your worried mind
Aah-Aah-Aah-Ooh
Aah-Aah-Aah-Ooh
Aah-Aah-Aah-Ooh
