Spit Syndicate
Latch {triple j Like A Version}
[Verse 1: Nick Lupi]
Yo, check it out
Yeah, and I’m floating through the mess that’s unfolding
Scared to death that it’s broken, yeah, I’m doing my best but I’m frozen
Used to think it was words that could be the most potent
But lately I have learned that it’s what goes unspoken
Like letters that are left unopened, I’ve seen better days but I’m coping
Few steps that I do regret, all through the web that I’ve woven
But we’re better than that and yet hopeless, and we owe it to ourselves
But I brought it on myself, shit, I know that all too well
See the short-hand just passed five, man, for the second time today
But I got too much on my mind, man, so I’m lying wide awake
See neither you nor I, we really how that pride’ll taste
So it’s blades to my nose, just so I can spite my face
Hold my head, hide my shame, wash my sins, light my way
Lost my friend, and I’m to blame, lost my friend, lost my way
Way, way, and through this maze I take my steps
And with nails I made my bed, but get no rest when I lay my head
Go
[Chorus: Sarah Corry & Joyride (Jimmy Nice & Nick Lupi)]
Now I've got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto you
(Go) Now I've got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto you (Yeah, uh)
Never
[Verse 2: Jimmy Nice]
Caught in that long distance romance, we both planned on Christmas
That I'd fly down and you said to me that you think that we should go giftless
Little did you know I got the one thing on my wishlist
That I wanted, you, you, you, where did we go wrong?
Long kiss goodnight darling, right after we hopped aboard this freight train
You moved in, my mood swings, your alibi's and my fake names
Capsized that love boat, I'd stumble home and you'd take aim
My phone's off, we're both lost til I call back and you take blame
The shorthand just passed five man for the second time today
But i got a new thing on the side man and I’m lying wide awake
See my heart ain’t really in it, try to hide it on my face
Rather keep you on the side, than see you side of stage
Oh no, no show and tell, I know it she know it well
(Oh well) Not even I know who's laying in my hotel
(Oh well) To no avail I failed to tell my lady 'step'
So with nails I made my bed but I got no rest when I lay my head
[Chorus: Sarah Corry & Joyride (Jimmy Nice & Nick Lupi)]
Now I've got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto you
Now I've got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto you
[Bridge: Joyride & Sarah Corry (Jimmy Nice & Nick Lupi)]
I think we’re close enough (You know)
Wanna lock in your love (And it shows)
I think we’re close enough (And it goes)
Save your breath
So with nails I make my bed, but I got no rest when I lay my head
Go
[Chorus: Sarah Corry, Joyride Jimmy, Jimmy Nice & Nick Lupi]
Now I've got you in my space
I know she knows, we know it well
I won’t let go of you
I know she knows to no avail
Got you shackled in my embrace
I know she knows, we know it well
I’m latching onto you
We know it well
Never
