A pale voice and a paper tear

The bullets scud, hunting blood

But it’s friendly fire my love

We changed tyres but we’re losing air

So hold me close as we drive

We’re in for a bumpy ride

It’s just a slow puncture

Bringing us down

Twisting me round

Just a slow puncture

Stealing our sound

Taking us down

The thread broke so we’re ripping seams

I’m daring you to deny this Gemini butterfly

The snow’s deep but we’re dressed in dreams

Oh honey hang on cos we’rе all just surviving here

It’s just a slow puncture

Bringing us down

Twisting mе round

Just a slow puncture

Stealing our sound

Taking us down

I see light on dark days

It’s just a slow puncture

Twisting me round

Just a slow puncture

Stealing our sound

Taking us down
