Lyrics La Roux – In For The Kill

We can fight our desires
But when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Whether we like it or not

They say we can love who we trust
But what is love without lust
Two hearts with accurate devotions
But what are feelings without emotions?

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

I hang my hopes out on the line
Well they’ll be ready for you in time
If you leave them out too long
They’ll be withered by the sun

Full stops and exclamation marks
My words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Can this bridge cross the ocean?

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill

Let’s go to war to make peace
Let’s be cold to create heat
I hope in darkness we can see
And you’re not blinded by the light from me

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand
