Landmines - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I always fall for the poetic liars

Faulty wires, sandcastles and fairy tales

Deep down I think it's all I deserve

Believing words will do what they say they will

Holding on to you is like guarding a grenade

Slow dancing on land mines

It's only a matter of time

Oh but I can't resist, oh I can't resist

Slow-dancing on land mines

Love is a target with my heart painted on it

I swim with sharks in the neon dark

I'm quick to make a joke

Stay too busy to fall apart

Can't talk about it

But I can put it in a song

Maybe no one will get it

But at least they'll sing along

Any minute now, I know it's gonna blow up in my face

Slow dancing on land mines

It's only a matter of time

Oh but I can't resist, oh I can't resist

Slow-dancing on land mines

Love is a target with my heart painted on it

Holding onto you is like guarding a grenade

Holding onto you is like

Slow dancing on land mines

It's only a matter of time

Oh but I can't resist, oh I can't resist

Slow-dancing on land mines

Love is a target with my heart painted on it

Love is a target with my heart painted on it

Love is a target
