Mongrel Heart

[Verse 1]

Is it hard to wait?

Drowned by your mongrel heart again

If you don't answer, where do you want to be found, love?

You duck through the window, you're a blight on the town

[Chorus]

Love is turning you out

Sliding, whirling round

I tried to warn you

This waiting game

Will bring that specter down

[Verse 2]

And would it be wrong

To clamp down on your racing heart, love?

And if they'd known, persisted, oh, to be found, love

It's not what you deserve

[Chorus]

Love is turning you out

Sliding, whirling round

I tried to warn you

This waiting game

Will bring that specter down

[Verse 3]

Faster than you run, come your demons

Turn out the lights, oh, sacred owl

If you don't answer, would you want to be found, love?

Five days on, trapped by their weight

[Chorus]

Love is turning you out

Sliding, winding round

I tried to warn you

This waiting game

Will bring that specter down, down, down

[Verse 4]

Back on this old game, you'll be

Cut down in a seedy stairway

If you don't answer, would you want to be found, love?

Sapped from the bed to the window

[Chorus]

Looking back on the time

Starting in the mines

What it is to be twenty-nine

When fame sets your life down

[Outro]

Would it be wrong

Would it be wrong

To disappoint you now

Disappoint you now
