Oil on Water
Bastille
[Verse 1]
So her fingers ran away with themselves
'Till everything was documented
Her mind it was reaching out
To put into words what their bodies had done

[Chorus]
They lie together, oh
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh
Someone's daughter

[Verse 2]
It's a catalogue of modern mistakes
Her words and legs wrapped around each man
Leaving stories like digital crumbs
As she turns these nights into literature

[Chorus]
They lie together, oh
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh
Someone's daughter
[Verse 3]
When they leave she sets about writing down
Awkward body games all over town
Warm affection runs through every word
We're screens away but we're laughing with her

[Chorus]
They lie together, oh
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh
Someone's daughter

They lie upon her, oh
Oil on water
