Lyrics for Placebo - This Picture

I hold an image of the ashtray girl
Of cigarette burns on my chest
I wrote a poem that described her world
And put our friendship to the test
And late at night
Whilst on all fours
She used to watch me kiss the floor
What’s wrong with this picture?
What’s wrong with this picture?

Farewell the ashtray girl
Forbidden snowflake
Beware this troubled world
Watch out for earthquakes
Goodbye to open sores
To broken semaphore
You know we miss her
We miss her picture

Sometimes it’s fated
(We) Disintegrated it
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it’s fated
(We) Assassinated it
For fear of growing old

Farewell the ashtray girl
Angelic fruitcake
Beware this troubled world
Control your intake
Goodbye to open sores
Goodbye and furthermore
You know we miss her
We miss her picture

Sometimes it’s fated
(We) Disintegrated it
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it’s fated
(We) Assassinated it
For fear of growing old

Hang on
Though we try
It’s gone
Hang on
Though we try
It’s gone

Sometimes it’s fated
(We) Disintegrated it
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it’s fated
(We) Assassinated it
For fear of growing old
Can’t stop growing old…

Lyrics for Placebo - Every You, Every Me

Sucker love is heaven sent
You pucker up our passion’s spent
My heart’s a tart your body’s rent
My body’s broken yours is bent

Carve your name into my arm
Instead of stressed I lie here charmed
Cuz there’s nothing else to do
Every me and every you

Sucker love a box I choose
No other box I choose to use
Another love I would abuse
No circumstances could excuse

In the shape of things to come
Too much poison come undone
Cuz there’s nothing else to do,
Every me and every you.
Every me and every you,
Every Me…he

Sucker love is known to swing.
Prone to cling and waste these things.
Pucker up for heaven’s sake.
There’s never been so much at stake.

I serve my head up on a plate.
It’s only comfort, calling late.
Cuz there’s nothing else to do,
Every me and every you.
Every me and every you,
Every Me…he

Every me and every you,
Every Me…he

Like the naked leads the blind.
I know I’m selfish, I’m unkind.
Sucker love I always find,
Someone to bruise and leave behind.

All alone in space and time.
There’s nothing here but what here’s mine.
Something borrowed, something blue.
Every me and every you.
Every me and every you,
Every Me…he

Every me and every you,
Every Me…he (x4)

Lyrics for Placebo - Infra Red

One last thing before I shuffle off the planet,
I will be the one to make you crawl,
So I came down to wish you and unhappy birthday.

Someone call the ambulance..There’s gonna be an accident.

I’m coming up on infrared, there is no running that can hide you,
Coz I can see in the dark.
I’m coming up on infrared, forget your running, I will find you.

One more thing before we start the final face-off,
I will be the one to watch you fall,
So I came down to crash and burn your bagger’s banquet.

Someone call the ambulance..There’s gonna be an accident.

I’m coming up on infrared, there is no running that can hide you,
Coz I can see in the dark.
I’m coming up on infrared, forget your running, I will find you.
(find you)

[instrumental]

I’m coming up on infrared, there is no running that can hide you,
Coz I can see in the dark.
I’m coming up on infrared, forget your running, I will find you.

I’m coming up on infrared, there is no running that can hide you,
Coz I can see in the dark.
I’m coming up on infrared, forget your running, I will find you.

I’m coming up on infrared, there is no running that can hide you,
Coz I can see in the dark.
I’m coming up on infrared, forget your running, I will find you.
Find you.
Find you.
Find you.
