Lyrics Splitting the Atom - Massive Attack

The baby was born nettles and ferns
The evening it chokes, the candle it burns, this disguise covers
Bitter lies, repeating the joke, the meaning it dies
Pass me a coat I'm not afraid to leave
I'm letting you know, I know what you need
I'll turn you around, this beautiful town
And then you'll believe it when your eyes then deceive you

It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go

Don't lose It
There was one redemption
I can't open, repeat the joke

Its getting colder outside your rented space
They shadow box and they paper chase it never stops
And we'll never learn no hope without dope
The jobless return, the bankers have bailed
The mighty retreat, the pleasure it fails
At the end of the week, you take it or leave or what you receive

To what you receive
Is eternited leave

It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go
Don't lose it

Incandescent light at doors, in adolescent menopause
In little clicks you got the music stops, the needle sticks and the penny drops
The summer's gone before you know, the muffled drums of relentless flow

You're looking at stars that give you vertigo, the sun's still burning and dust will blow
Honey scars I'll keep you near, our blood is gold nothing to fear
We killed the time and I love you dear, kiss oh wine we'll disappear
The last of the last particles, divisible invisible
The last of the last particles, divisible invisible
The last of the last particles, divisible invisible

I see you, you're too near
I see you, lucky me
