I can't survive the tide of you
The vicious style of love, the whining
Pits and pendulums of lying
I don't see how you survive in
Hard-line worlds you're advertising
Sneaky features, facing, waiting
City sex is so frustrating
Young savage
Young savage
She's like a steel wall
Speaks like a dance hall
Young savage
Young savage
Anything goes where no-one knows your name
The mirror love of vixens
Gets over the mask of victims
Money rents you insulation
Tenderness, asphyxiation
Someone else's flesh to borrow
Sling it from your bed tomorrow
Live too fast for love or sorrow
Look behind the face, it's hollow
Young savage
Young savage
She's like a steel wall
Speaks like a dance hall
Young savage
Young savage
Anything goes where no-one knows your name
Young savage
Young savage
She's like a steel wall
Speaks like a dance hall
Young savage
Young savage
Anything goes where no-one knows your name
The broken heart of you
Who stole, who stole a part of you
Changing blossoms into piss
And taking bites from every kiss
The past is dead, tomorrow's too far
All the chemicals that bar us
Coloured hair, cheap tattoos
That tell you all their points of view
Young savage
Young savage
She's like a steel wall
Speaks like a dance hall
Young savage
Young savage
Anything goes where no-one knows your name
Condemned to be a stranger
Subway dweller, dead-end danger
Peeking through the dust of friends
Who never gave, they'd only lend
Every sneer is thrown away
With practised gestures of disdain
The outlaw stance is so pedantic
Hate the world, it's so romantic
Young savage
Young savage
She's like a steel wall
Speaks like a dance hall
Young savage
Young savage
Anything goes where no-one knows your name
The Jekyll-Hyde of you I can't survive the tide of you The vicious style of love, the whining Pits and pendulums of lying I don't see how you survive in Hard-line worlds you're advertising Sneaky features, facing, waiting City sex is so frustrating Young savage Young savage She's like a steel wall Speaks like a dance hall Young savage Young savage Anything goes where no-one knows your name The mirror love of vixens Gets over the mask of victims Money rents you insulation Tenderness, asphyxiation Someone else's flesh to borrow Sling it from your bed tomorrow Live too fast for love or sorrow Look behind the face, it's hollow Young savage Young savage She's like a steel wall Speaks like a dance hall Young savage Young savage Anything goes where no-one knows your name Young savage Young savage She's like a steel wall Speaks like a dance hall Young savage Young savage Anything goes where no-one knows your name The broken heart of you Who stole, who stole a part of you Changing blossoms into piss And taking bites from every kiss The past is dead, tomorrow's too far All the chemicals that bar us Coloured hair, cheap tattoos That tell you all their points of view Young savage Young savage She's like a steel wall Speaks like a dance hall Young savage Young savage Anything goes where no-one knows your name Condemned to be a stranger Subway dweller, dead-end danger Peeking through the dust of friends Who never gave, they'd only lend Every sneer is thrown away With practised gestures of disdain The outlaw stance is so pedantic Hate the world, it's so romantic Young savage Young savage She's like a steel wall Speaks like a dance hall Young savage Young savage Anything goes where no-one knows your name Explain Request ×
