It Takes Blood And Guts ... — текст песни (Skunk Anansie)

Save me from critical acclaim
Save my smile its` too cracked from fame
Wish me well with my fantasy
Feel my arrogance with your sanity

Wash me oh so painfully clean
Disect my words with a fist full of your dreams
Build me up and strike me down please
Sign my name, sign my name

It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I`m still, just a cliche
It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I`m still, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche

Colour my views in red, white and blue
I`m wide awake now, wide awake now
I kiss you, I kiss you, but I`m falling down
And all my friends are crowding around

They`re crowding around looking down to see
But all they can see is me, me, me
So blow me away now, with your screwed up mind
There`s no charm left now, for you to find

It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I`m still, just a cliche
It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I`m still, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche

I see you, you see me
And who the hell am I supposed to be
I don`t care now but I know that I should
Wasting away like you knew I would

It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I`m still, still
It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I`m still, still
It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I`m still, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche
