[Verse 1]
Split for the country, run from your life
A demon waits you on the other side
A married man shacked up in the shop
You can't do nothing, can't call no cop
Desperation, a bleeding romance
Worn on your sleeve and inside your pants
A sinister calling stuck in a wheel
I ain't your boy, you ain't my girl
[Chorus]
It's a quick fix, baby
A trick of the light
In the night, you've been waiting
For these wrongs to be right
[Verse 2]
Fear of the doctor hearing your name
The pharmacists talk of gossip and shame
The night feels electric under your skin
The vastness expands as you stumble in
I take no pleasure, I don't take no shame
But I can't be bothered in taking the blame
People, they talk, they whisper my name
But you'll soon find out I don't play that game
[Chorus]
It's a quick fix, baby
A trick of the light
In the night, you've been waiting
For these wrongs to be right
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Split for the country, run from your life
A demon waits you on the other side
A married man shacked up in the shop
You can't do nothing, can't call no cop
Desperation, a bleeding romance
Worn on your sleeve and inside your pants
A sinister calling stuck in a wheel
I ain't your boy, you ain't my girl
[Chorus]
It's a quick fix, baby
A trick of the light
In the night, you've been waiting
For these wrongs to be right
