Forty Thieves - Charlie Simpson

My body is toxic

And now there’s visitors living in my veins yet

I’m just a host in their selfish games well

Oh god where are you now?

I thought you loved us all the same

I was up looking for you all night

I’m sure I heard your voice in the darkness

I was up looking for you all night

'cos you know you are the fortress I am bound too

I was shattered when I found you

And all your skin was white there were crystal lines running

Between your lips and

Down through your spine there was

Nothing in your eyes that I could recognise

For the pain you left I hope you made it there

I was up looking for you all night

I’m sure I heard your voice in the darkness

I was up looking for you all night

'cos you know you are the fortress I am bound too

It’s funny how the simplest things

Are often the hardest

But all I ever wanted was to love you

I was up looking for you all night

I’m sure I heard your voice in the darkness

I was up looking for you all night

'cos you know you are the fortress I am bound too
