Stall Me (Deluxe Edition Track)

(album: Vices And Virtues - 2011)

Fall to your knees
And kiss the ring,
The crowd's rejoicing
All of my dreams
Wake up to despise the world I once loved

Why would you bring me in if you knew what you'd become?
So curse everyone and everything, even the sun

Stall me, stall me, I'm all in
Stall me, call me up or break me in
A dark room in the wallflower garden at the party
She's got four on the floor
She's waiting to kick start me
So just stall me

I had a rosy dream
You gave up on you
And I gave up on me
Well, love came along and said, “Leave them be.”

We were wrecked on every rock you tasted
Light a cork my pretty little angel
I'm singing to empty bottles everywhere, everywhere

Stall me, stall me, I'm all in
Stall me, call me up or break me in
A dark room in the wallflower garden at the party
She's got four on the floor
She's waiting to kick start me
So just stall me

She counts on stars, astrology
My moods are mercurial
But I know Mercury
Don't hold your breath
Baptized in the river of you
Hold on death, the moon,
The stars a sliver of you

Stall me, stall me I'm all in
Stall me, call me up or break me in
A dark room and the wallflower garden at the party
Stall me, stall me I'm all in
Stall me, call me up or break me in
A dark room and the wallflower garden at the party

She's got four on the floor
She's waiting to kick start me
She said she's got more where that came from to spark me
So just stall me
