FRANZ FERDINAND LYRICS - What You Meant

"What You Meant"



As I took step number four

Into the close of your tenement

You cast your darkened eyes so low

Said we're cold as the step cement



But I just don't know what you meant



So Alec you may want a pill

We are so cruel and to communicate

Without the red stuff being spilled

We must MDMA our sentiment



But I just don't know what you meant



If we were feckless we'd be fine

Sucking hard on our innocence

But we've been bright in our decline

Been left as blackened filament



But I just don't know what you meant



'cause I feel blood inside the vein

I feel life inside the ligament

I feel alive yeah just the same

Same vigour and the same intent



So I just don't know if that's what you meant
