Royal Blood

Ten Tonne Skeleton

Verse 1

She took my high, left me for dead
And drank my blood, told me she said
Our secret's worth its weight in gold
That fire we had, now is turning cold

Chorus

Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannon ball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
 
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone

Verse 2

Where did you go? Where did you run?
I can't erase what you've done
Let's burn the past, forget the truth
I'm still more than him, I'm still loving you

Chorus

Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannon ball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
 
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone

Bridge

[Ten tonne skeleton]
[Ten tonne skeleton]
[Ten tonne skeleton]
 
[Ten tonne skeleton]
[Ten tonne skeleton]
[Ten tonne ske…]

Chorus

Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannon ball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
 
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone

Outro

But I waited too long for you, only
Love has been here and gone, to die slowly
Going under again, so don't follow me
