Splitting the Atom

Massive Attack

1. The baby was born   
   Nettles and Ferns
   The evening it chokes   
   The candle it burns
   This disguise covers
   Bitter lies
   Repeating the joke
   The meaning it dies  
   Pass me a coat I'm not a-  
   'fraid to leave
   I'm letting you know  
   I know what you need
   I'll turn you around  
   This beautiful town
   And then you'll believe it when your
   eyes then deceive you

R: Its easy, dont let it go
   Its easy, dont let it go
   Its easy, dont let it go
   Don't Lose It

2. Its getting colder outside            
   Your rented space
   They shadow box and they   
   Paper chase
   It never stops   
   And we'll never learn
   No hope without dope
   The jobless return
   The bankers have bailed  
   The mighty retreat
   The pleasure it fails  
   At the end of the week
   You take it or leave  
   Or what you receive
   To what you receive
   Is eternited leave

R: Its easy...
   
   Incandescent light at doors
   In adolescent menopause
   In little clicks you got the music stops
   The needle sticks and the penny drops
   The summer's gone before you know
   The muffled drums of relentless flow
   You're looking at stars that give you Vertigo
   The sun's still burning and dust will blow
   Honey scars I'll keep you near
   Our blood is gold nothing to fear
   We killed the time and I love you dear
   A kiss of wine we'll disappear
   The last of the last particles
   Divisible invisible
   The last of the last particles
   Divisible invisible
