The Crookes Maybe in the Dark (Single) lyrics

Maybe it's just cheap easy lust with chemicals. We're dirt forever.
Maybe we're blessed. I'll rip your dress, you pull my hair and we'll leave together.
Maybe you're young. I'll bite your tongue, your lip will bleed. We're trash forever.
Maybe you're right, just for tonight. But your clumsy kiss won't taste so clever.

And all I need is a substitute, maybe in the dark she'll look enough like you….

I'll take the shame, lust to blame. What if we ever meet again?
I'll know your face, not your name. But we'll know

Maybe I'll find pleasure tonight? With chemicals I'll hardly miss her.
Maybe you wear clothes like she wears. Same coloured hair. I'm sick forever.

And all I need is a substitute, maybe in the dark she'll look enough like you….

I'll take the shame, lust to blame. What if we ever meet again?

I'll know your face, not your name. But we'll know
Our eyes were bright, out of sight. Two strangers caught behind the night.
You're the perfect second best.

Every time I see your ghost
Every time I see your ghost
You're the perfect second best

I'll take the shame, lust to blame. What if we ever meet again?
I'll know your face, not your name. But we'll know
Our eyes were bright, out of sight. Two strangers caught behind the night.
You're the perfect second best.
You're the perfect second best.
