Here Comes The Rumour Mill
Young Knives, The
Voices Of Animals And Men (2006)

Here comes the Rumour Mill
And I'm not even trying
It's a game of Cat and Mouse
But I can't tell who's lying
You can tell in the way that I walk that I am frightened
They're bearing down on me
What have I done to spite them?

They keep on lying like no one really matters
And then those lies they just scatter and scatter
Can't hear my thoughts above the sound of the chatter
They keep on lying to you
They keep on lying to you

Here comes the vanguard man
It seems he is delirious
He keeps mocking me
I can't tell if he's serious
Have you seen how he jokes and he smiles
Yet he sleeps like a child

Tall tales, cliques and whispers
Tell of secret kisses

They keep on lying like no one really matters
And then those lies they just scatter and scatter
They keep on lying like no one really matters
And then those lies they just scatter and scatter
Can't hear my thoughts above the sound of the chatter
They keep on lying to you
They keep on lying to you

Here comes a bitter pill
But I don't think I'll take it
Like you I'm scared of everything they're saying
But I know there is no other way, there is no other way

Tall tales, cliques and whispers
Tell of secret kisses

They keep on lying like no one really matters
And then those lies they just scatter and scatter
Can't hear my thoughts above the sound of the chatter
And you'll be sorry when you

They keep on lying like no one really matters
And then those lies they just scatter and scatter
They keep on lying like no one really matters
And then those lies they just scatter and scatter
Can't hear my thoughts above the sound of the chatter
They keep on lying to you (x9)
And you'll be sorry when you
Come to your senses
