A Certain Compulsion (Remixed By White Label)

Underneath the streetlight
You take on the profile of the everyman
Shielding the ears of those who might
Hear the past clattering behind you like a tin can

You cast the shadow of the unassuming
Of the gentleman, of the guy with the heart
But I can see you, oh I can see you

And if you knew what I knew
Would you stop and take a breath
As you wander from conquest to conquest
Do you stop and take a breath

And you, always ready to impress
The hand on the arm, the arm around the dress
Won't you get a taste of it, I just sit and wait for it
As you dance, you dance of the dying swarm

As you declare you found your last hole
Your last chance, your last romance
But it's never your funeral
No, it's never your funeral

And if you knew what I knew
Would you stop and take a breath
As you wander from conquest to conquest
Would you stop and take a breath

I will follow you like I followed you
As you do what you do best
As you wander from conquest to conquest
I won't stop, no I won't stop
I won't rest
