Erasure

[Intro]
It's a story about
A street named "Decision"
Lays open the skin
With its painful incision

[Chorus 1]
Erasure
It's time to rest
Erase your
Complicated mess

[Verse 1]
A sharp dressed narcotic
That drips dark red
Keeps you smiling
When you say it's ok

[Refrain]
It's breaking me
With breathtaking ease

[Chorus 2]
Erasure
Rub me out
Erase your
Panic anxiety

[Verse 2]
Truth be told
I never liked her around
But she kept coming around between us

[Bridge 1]
I can hear you
Pioneer you
Whisper near you
Fire and virtue
I can hear you
Pioneer you
Whisper near you
Fire and virtue

[Interlude]
Got to keep a light burning all day (all day, all day)
Got to keep a light burning all day (all day, all day)

[Bridge 2]
Whatever
Happened to
Old-fashioned
Face value
Straight talking
Went out with
June brides and fashion queens

[Verse 3]
It's a story about a street named "Decision"
Lays open the skin with its painful incision

[Coda]
Your words are guns
And they are loaded, loaded, loaded, loaded
Loaded, loaded, loaded, loaded
Your words are guns
And they are loaded, loaded, loaded, loaded
Loaded, loaded, loaded, loaded
