Bite Down is the second track on Bastille’s mixtape VS. (Other People’s Heartache, Pt. III).
The song was created in collaboration with the band Haim.
The song is a pleading message to a person who is oblivious to the fact that the singer is the right one for them.
[Verse 1: Bastille]
You don't have to look any further
I've been waiting here for you for time
You don't have to look any further
You're missing what is right before your eyes
[Pre-Chorus: Bastille & HAIM]
No one's gonna stick the pieces
Together for you, together for you
No one's gonna stick the pieces
Together for you, together for you
(You've got your claws buried deep)
[Chorus: Bastille & HAIM]
Bite down, bite down into me
Bite down, bite down into me
You better sink your teeth before I disappear
Bite down, bite down into me
[Post-Chorus: Bastille & HAIM]
Ooh, I'm not gonna try
Ooh, I'm not gonna try
Ooh, I'm not gonna try
No, no, no, I'm not gonna try
[Verse 2: Bastille]
Oh, I'm trying to keep my composure
But every time you're shaking me down, I die
Are you gonna keep looking me over?
I'm tired of waving my arms from the back of the line
[Pre-Chorus: Bastille & HAIM]
No one's gonna stick the pieces
Together for you, together for you
No one's gonna stick the pieces
Together for you, together for you
(You've got your claws buried deep)
[Chorus: Bastille & HAIM]
Bite down, bite down into me
Bite down, bite down into me
You better sink your teeth before I disappear
Bite down, bite down into me
[Bridge: Bastille & HAIM]
‘Cause there are only so many times
That I can come running
‘Cause there are only so many times
That I can come running for you
[Chorus: Bastille & HAIM]
Bite down, bite down into me
Bite down, bite down into me
You better sink your teeth before I disappear
Bite down, bite down into me
Bite down, bite down into me
Bite down, bite down into me
You better sink your teeth before I disappear
Bite down, bite down into me
[Post-Chorus: Bastille & HAIM]
Ooh, I'm not gonna try
Ooh, I'm not gonna try
Ooh, I'm not gonna try
No, no, no, I'm not gonna try
