Elbow – Cast Of Thousands - The Film: Ribcage/Fallen Angel/Fugitive ... lyrics

We blew the doors didn't we?
Pissed in their champagne
And did a real thing didn't we?
Gave ourselves a name
And peeled away the shame
I wanted to explode
To pull my ribs apart
And let the sun inside

Red stain blossoms
And all you have is kisses

And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds it's way into my room
All I need is you

We called that love
All you have is kisses
And all I need is you

All the fallen angels
Roostin' in this place
Count back the weeks on worried fingers
Virgin mother whats'erface

You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favorite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control

All the gelded mongrel
Bear their teeth for you
Drag your feathers 'cross the dance floor
Throw your shapes electric blue

Don't fall to pieces on me

Lost in a lullaby
Side of the road
Melt in a memory
Slide in a solitude
Not 'til I can read by the moon
Am I going anywhere
Not 'til I can read by the moon

I blow you a kiss
It should reach you tomorrow
As it flies from the other side of the world
From my room in my fugitive motel
Somewhere in the dust bowl
It flies from the other side of the world

'I'm tired' I said
'You always look tired' she said
'I'm admired' I said
'You always look tired' she said
Not 'til I can read by the moon
Am I going anywhere
Not 'til I can read by the moon

Curtains stay closed
But everyone knows
You hear through the walls in this place
Cigarette holes for every lost soul
To give up the ghost in this place
Give me strength
Give me wings
