[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1: Kele Okereke]
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out
Why'd you feel... so underrated?
Why'd you feel... so negated?

[Chorus 1: Kele Okereke & Gordon Moakes]
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning into myself
I wanted to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning into the light

[Verse 2: Kele Okereke, Kele Okereke & Gordon Moakes]
She don't think straight
No, no, no, she don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled

[Chorus 2: Kele Okereke & Gordon Moakes]
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning into myself
I wanted to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning into the light
[Chorus 3: Kele Okereke & Gordon Moakes]
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning into myself
I wanted to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning into the light

[Bridge, Kele Okereke, (Gordon Moakes)]
And if you feel (If you feel) a little left behind (A little left behind)
We will wait for you on the other side
And if you feel (If you feel) a little left behind (A little left behind)
We will wait for you on the other side

[Chorus 4: Kele Okereke & Gordon Moakes]
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning into myself
I wanted to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning into the light

[Chorus 5: Kele Okereke & Gordon Moakes]
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning into myself
I wanted to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning into the light
