Arab Strap - Sociometer Blues Lyrics & Traduction

I woke up this morning and opened you up with a squeeze and a tender caress
We locked horns right away, I was shit on your shoe
I took a dressing down before I got dressed

I come to you for confirmation, testimony, adulation; education, excitation, palpitation and flirtation
But you give me aggravation, insult and disinformation; hatred, bias and predation, suicidal ideation

You take all my time, you take all my strength, you steal my love
You are the worst friend I've ever had
I let you inside, I follow you blind, I take your lead
Now I am a distant pal, an absent Dad

My fingerprints all over your body, your talons dug into my mind
My nucleus acumbens is putty in your hands, so go easy on me
Please be kind

I let you inside, I follow you blind, I take your lead
Now I am a fat recluse, a steaming ghost
You take all my time, you take all my strength, you steal my love
You are a barstool bore, a reckless host

Forged in the loins of the wild, wild west-taste the testosterone, smell all that ego!
Toys for the boys, but we think we're blessed
Wherever they're taking us, that's where we go

When will I be cured of this crippling fucking FOMO?
You won't down for half an hour, and it felt good
I accepted then that you would never light this face again, but I
Crumbled when you came back
You knew I would
Now my eyes are on fire and my thumbs are numb
But look at these numbers, see how you want me
A slave to your rhythms, the beats of your drum
You love me then leave me, then test me and taunt me

You take all my time, you take all my strength, you steal my love
(You bait me and hate me)
I let you inside, I follow you blind, I take your lead
(You shame me and maim me)

These thoughts and opinions are all my own
Your thoughts and opinions are not my own
My thoughts and opinions are not your own
Our thoughts and opinions are not our own
