Baby, behave, we’ll make it work
Are you with me?

You’re not golden, and I’m getting tired
Act like you own the place, when really you’ve only just arrived
I caught first glimmers in hides and skins
Look who’s all grown up, black-swanning about the solar winds

You’re gonna lose it all and find yourself on your knees
So, get a grip and you might flow, reverse the great, slow bleed
I’ve tried patience, but you always want a war
This house won’t tolerate any more

The cold shoulder, folded arms and looking up
You’ve never listened, and carry on careless, regardless
This is not a fire drill and if we hold any hope
It’s harmonic connection and stereo symbiosis
These legoland empires choking out mine now
You’re everywhere, everywhere, multiplying around me
A strain on my heart, this rock can’t tolerate any more

Stop this right away
Put that down and clean this mess up
End of conversation
Put your back in it and
Make it up to me now

You’re only what you give back

Baby, behave, we’ll make it work
Are you with me?

There was a time you let me know

What’s really going on below

But now you never show it to me, do you?

And remember when I moved in you

The holy dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
