03. Halo
The first taste of conventional guitars on the album - this plays like a classic fist-pumping Bloc Party song, all driving drums and interplaying guitars...could be a potential single. The last minute or so showcases Russell and Kele's trademark riffery, before Kele rounds things off with the downright sexy chorus.
Key lyric: Paralyse me with your kiss / Wipe those dirty hands on me / Maybe we're looking for the same thing / Maybe you're the one who'll complete me
Lyrics:
It was your hair that did it
It was your hair that lit the fuse
A golden-brown halo
Like sunlight peeling through trees
I ask you for the time
But I am asking for so much more
A moth to your light bulb
You made my heart beat faster
Paralyse me with your kiss
Wipe those dirty hands on me
Maybe we're looking for the same thing
Maybe you're the one who'll complete me
Oh how beauteous
Your lips and eyes and your fingertips
The spark of desire
On every point our bodies meet
Behind your eyes were stars
Infinite and serene
How I could suffer for you
You fascinate and magnetise me
Paralyse me with your kiss
Wipe those dirty hands on me
Maybe we're looking for the same thing
Maybe you're the one who'll complete me
Sometimes I think
I was thrown away
In this sadness
To weigh me down
Paralyse me with your kiss
Wipe those dirty hands on me
Maybe we're looking for the same thing
Maybe you're the one who'll complete me
