My Turn (feat. Dev Hynes) Lyrics
When did i fall apart?
When is it my turn?
My turn?
Trying but i'm falling right apart,
When will this all start?
Tell me, when will this all start?
Broken down forever now, we are losing what we found
My heart is left, alone in pieces, pieces
Well will this all start?
Tell me, when will this all start?
I am kept in my shell
I will never run away, you could never get away
All of this love that we've lost, has left me in pieces, in pieces
Girl, it's true, we have lost us...
Like a butterfly
brilliant. dev hynes never disappoints.
A powerful song that like love will make you wanna dance and smile, and can make you wallow and cry....
It's a beautiful song about the sad reality of a love lost. A love that is lost and can't be put back together. It notes love's fragility.... and the scars that linger long after that love is gone forever.
On another note.... Basement Jaxx put their albums together so well... the songs mesh and you can get the feeling and the meaning behind the awesome and infectious grooves.
I think lyrics are:
Girl, I'm trying to finish
...
Girl, it's true, we have lost our hearts
we can hear some female voice sometimes, i don't know what she's saying but it looks like french.

The female vocals say "left in pieces" at one point - they're more audible here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k7p7nKUoRE Incidentally after watching that performance the song seems a lot more romantic - perhaps they didn't lose each other after all?
