Blue Lines Lyrics - Blue Lines - Massive Attack

(Tricky) 

Can't be with the one you love then love the one you're with 

Spliff in the ashtray, Red Stripe I pull the lid 

Her touch tickles, especially when she's gentle 

Keep the girl in the distance, moves are very hazy 

No sunshine in my life the way I deal is shady 

(3D) 

Skip hip data to get the anti-matter 

Blue lines are the reason why the tower had to shatter 

To the sound of silence surrounded by the mass 

Her face is on the paper not the strangers that I pass 

The ones that looking back to see if they are looking back at me 

(Daddy G) 

Are you predator or do you fear me 

(3D)

Listen To Taylor Swift's New Song 'Call It What You Want' 

Yeah while I'm doing this I know 

The place I really wanna go 

The one I love but never gets near me 

(Tricky) 

It's a beautiful day, well it seems as such 

Beautiful thoughts means I dream too much 

Even if I told you, you still would not know me 

Tricky never does, Adrian mostly gets lonely 

How we live in this existence, just being 

English upbringing, background Carribean 

(3D) 

It's the way that we? bility? 

Sharing a soliloquy 

We cut the broken thread from flexibility 

Mi chiamo 3D si sono Inglese 

No sunshine in my life 'cause the way I deal is hazy 

And everyday's a daisy 'cause I'm on my toes 

While contemporaries of mine remaining comatose 

Photos 

(Tricky) 

There's a looking glass she's looking through 

She hated me, but then she loved me too 

I'd lie not try so I lost faith 

Then turn to her to keep the faith 

She told me take an occupation or you lose your mind 

And on a nine to five lemon, looking for the lime 

(3D) 

Box clever, watch your system come together 

Crazy weather at the end of my tether 

(Daddy G) 

Massive in the area, murderer 

Attack inna the area, murderer 

(3D) 

Some go softly softly round the habitat 

Ratchet in the right hand 

They got no one to stab it at 

Take a walk billy, don't be a hero 

Effort's on minimal though almost touch zero 

Excommunicated from the brotherhood of man 

To wander lonely as a puzzled anagram 

Car paint blue, green, primer and zinc 

Take it to extremities my purple and pink 

I feel the colours fill my room beneath the patter of the rain 

I can't stand the drops they're dripping down my windowpane 

They wash away my shadow and don't even leave a spark upon my soul 

They leave the rainbows in the dark 

(Tricky) 

Blues get big, massive are even larger 

Save nuff space into the tricky tardis 

We'd trawl what I saw from down in darren's hall 

People laying their claim 

In stormy weather it's rain 

(3D) 

But you're living on a see-saw 

(Tricky) 

I try to see more 

(3D) 

Somebody da-ditty, nobody 

Walking on sunshine, but still we're treading water 

The son of many reasons searching for the daughter 

Seeking knowledge, not acknowledging the jetset 

Silver papers of the sound within my budakon headset 

The solar system watches in wisdom 

The children dance as the moonlight kissed them 

(Tricky) 

To Massive attack Matt Black appear wearing beads 

Two hours traveling so I wrote this on repeat 

Always living fast, people getting jumpy 

Where on? gruggy? falls I do the walter crumpy 

Microphones held close, crouching far apart 

Take my piece of mind and sign my name across your heart
