Bastille - The Descent Lyrics



Bastille - The Descent Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring Jacob Banks, Moss Kena, Lily Moore ]

Say it to my face (face, face, face)
Ooh
Call me baby
Ooh
Tear me down

Tell me how it feels to be on the outside
With your hands on the glass
'Cause we know it's the easiest thing in the world
To be that cynical

I looked up to you (I looked up to you
Oh, I trusted you (I trusted you)
I put faith in you, guess that's what you do
Now I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down
I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down

Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down

How don't you get exhausted
Spitting forward so much bile?
Shame that your time is ticking
And you are so replaceable

I looked up to you (I looked up to you)
Oh, I trusted you (trusted you)
I put faith in you (I put faith)
Guess that's what you do
Now I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down
I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down (down, down)

Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down

'Cause I put faith into you
Oh, I put faith into you
Oh, I put faith into you
And I will break a smile when you fall

Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down

Tear me down
You tear me down
Call me baby
Baby why did you tear me down?
Call me baby
Tear me down
Call me baby
Tear me down
Call me baby
Tear me down
Oh, call me baby
Oh, tear me down

You won't call me by my name
(Oh call me, baby)
While I'm still sitting in your grace
(Oh tear me down)
You won't say it to my face
(Oh call me, baby)
While I'm falling from your grace
(Oh tear me down)
You won't call me by my name
(Oh call me, baby)
While I'm still sitting in your grace
(Oh tear me down)
You won't say it to my face
(Oh call me, baby)
Have I finally found your grace?
(Oh tear me down)

What do you know about all the filth that's going on here, huh?
Kids who get high repeatedly don't want to come down

I breathe in hard
Don't speak, 'cause it's like a bitter pill
You blow my mind
You make my heart beat
Faster, faster, faster, faster, fast
The echoes of that news ring loud
It breaks my heart
It breaks my heart into
A million pieces, oh
It breaks my heart into
A million pieces
If it's gonna break me
Won't you let me go
Leave it 'til the morning
I don't wanna know
It breaks my heart
It breaks my heart into
A million pieces (oh, oh, oh)
A million pieces (oh, oh, oh)
A million pieces, oh
