Guillotine - Brittle

I love the song Guillotine by the band Brittle but haven't been able to find the lyrics to it so wrote them up myself.

If you haven't heard Brittle before check them out. They're an awesome aussie band (i met them once and helped them set up for a show) with a wicked sound.

Guillotine

I’m speaking honestly there’s a reason why all of our knuckles bleed
(knuckles bleed)
we’re taking on the world tonight so do your laces up, I hope you feel alright.
dance girl, nows your turn.
open up your eyes and take a look at the world.
dance girl, we’re gonna turn it around.

we’ve got a guillotine over our heads.
it’s just a matter of time before we all are dead.
singing: oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!
I see the future in our eyes.
but now the blade has stopped and we are losing sight.
singing: oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!

we all take three steps up and if we f*** it up
you know we’ll make it right.
sometimes I convince myself to _____ someone else to enjoy themselves.
we are the makers, the cages of memories.
so let your heart drive your life everywhere.

we’ve got a guillotine over our heads.
it’s just a matter of time before we all are dead.
singing: oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!
I see the future in our eyes.
but now the blade has stopped and we are losing sight.
singing: oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f**** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!

oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!

dance girl, nows your turn.
(yeah!)
dance girl, nows your turn.
(yeah!)
dance girl, nows your turn.
(yeah!)
dance girl, nows your turn.
(yeah!)

(so you ready?)

we’ve got a guillotine over our heads.
it’s just a matter of time before we all are dead.
singing: oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!
I see the future in our eyes.
but now the blade has stopped and we are losing sight.
singing: oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!

we’ve got a guillotine over our heads.
it’s just a matter of time before we all are dead.
singing: oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!
oh-ee oh-ee oh!
(f*** yeah!)
oh-ee oh-ee oh!
