Crashing into walls,
Banging on your door,
So why'd you let me in?
Falling through the floor,
Diving in too deep,
Underneath your skin.
So good you've got to abuse it,
So fast that sometimes you lose it,
It chews you up when you feed it,
But everyone needs to eat,
Am I too much for you?
'Cause you're too much for me,
And I still wanna be corrupted.
Let's convince ourselves it's all under control,
A stone that we can break,
But is this what we want?
'Cause we might miss the hate,
I know it feels so good,
To make the same mistake
(mistake, mistake, mistake, mistake, mistake)
So good you've got to abuse it,
So fast that sometimes you lose it,
It chews you up when you feed it,
But everyone needs to eat,
Am I too much for you?
'Cause you're too much for me,
And I still wanna be corrupted.
Do you remember how it started?
The fairytale got twisted and decayed,
The innocence has all been broken,
How did we get this way?
So good you've got to abuse it,
So fast that sometimes you lose it,
It chews you up when you feed it,
But everyone needs to eat,
So good you've got to abuse it,
So fast that sometimes you lose it,
It chews you up when you feed it,
But everyone needs to eat,
Am I too much for you?
'Cause you're too much for me,
And I still wanna be,
And I still wanna be corrupted.

bloody awesome!
it's about a relationship that's... crap, basically, and erm, both people know they're no good for each other, but both kinda like the... passion, i spose is the word - the general danger eitherway.
ivor novello for Mr Fletcher?
I really like this song and the meaning behind it about corrupted love in a bad relationship but the guitar riff is taken from Avril Lavigne's song "Take Me Away" from her Let Go b-sides (not the Under My Skin song). And I'm not hating because i'm a big fan of McFly. I like how Tom, Danny and Dougie all share vocals on this too.
I just realised that McFly worked with The Matrix on 'Corrupted'. The Matrix wrote 'Take Me Away' too so that's why they were allowed sample the guitar riff.
I didn't even notice the gutiar riff till u mentioned it...hmmm...anywho's yeh this is like one of my favourite songs on the new album...i like how dark it is...they said that Lies was there darkest song but i disagree I think this is
This and POV sound like Busted songs, but then Tom used to write for them didn't he. This is so catchy, I love it. It's kinda scary, it's definitely darker than Lies.
I LOVE this song. amazing.
Seems to be about a relationship that doesn't work but because of this works so well. Both people know it's not good from them but thats exactly why they want it, to feel that danger and life that comes from being so close to the edge of falling.
One of my favourite songs of the album... It does seem to be about a relationship, one that seems to be going no where but the people involved just don't want to let go.
Reminds me of my relationship with one of my best friends.
