Papillons Stalemate Songtext / Lyric

So far, it's safe to go out, the boys have their knives out

Well, I said I'm gonna do this for you anyway, one balloon, one cannonball

This city's got a hold on you, the electricity is getting stronger

(Stronger)

A friction on my head but

(Stalemate)



Why do we compromise our dreams?

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

And on and on it goes

(On and on)

Oh, and on and on and on and on and on

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

For once in my life, I'd love to feel my instincts sweeten

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

And I always seem to owe you an apology

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate and on and on)






We diminish our self-respect until there is none left

Well, I said I've got to do this to you anyway, I jump, you somersault

This city's got a hold on you, the electricity is getting stronger

(Stronger)

The fury of a knife fight

(Stalemate)



Why do we compromise our dreams?

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

Oh, and on and on it goes

(On and on)

Oh, and on and on and on and on and on

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

For once in my life, I'd love to feel my instincts sweeten

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

And I always seem to owe you an apology

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)



Why do we compromise our dreams?

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

And on and on it goes

(On and on)

Oh, and on and on and on and on and on

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

For once in my life, I'd love to feel my instincts sweeten

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

And I always seem to owe you an apology

(Stalemate)



(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
