Crimewaves Lyrics
I said I came here with ease
With my porcelain thumb
I can see for me
One day you may just need one
Well you're just becoming self therapeutic
I think it's because we're alone
It's the perfect time to try again
As we slip inside our winter skin
A sweet incline to a beating heart
It's all that there ever is
We crimewaves
Like crimewaves
Crimewaves
Spray my graffiti
From my vintage gallant tongue
Now you see through me
Until the getting is all done
Today we all save some forgiveness
Just for the castaways
I think it's because we're alone
It's the perfect time to try again
As we sleep inside our winter skin
A sweet incline to a beating heart
It's all that there ever is
We crimewaves
Just like crimewaves
Crimewaves
What you need
What you need
What you know me by
What you know me by
That's the way
(That you know me by)
That's the way
You will know me by
What you need
With my porcelain thumb
I can see for me
One day you may just need one
Well you're just becoming self therapeutic
I think it's because we're alone
As we slip inside our winter skin
A sweet incline to a beating heart
It's all that there ever is
Like crimewaves
Crimewaves
From my vintage gallant tongue
Now you see through me
Until the getting is all done
Today we all save some forgiveness
Just for the castaways
I think it's because we're alone
As we sleep inside our winter skin
A sweet incline to a beating heart
It's all that there ever is
Just like crimewaves
Crimewaves
What you need
What you know me by
(That you know me by)
You will know me by
What you need

I came here with ease With my dorsum and thumb I can see for me One day you may just need one Well you're just becoming so erratic I think it's because we're alone
It's the perfect time to try again As we slip inside our winter skin Speeding crimes to a beating heart It's all that there ever is
We crimewaves Like crimewaves Crimewaves
Spray my graffiti From my vintage gallant tongue Now you see through me Until the getting is all done Today we all save some forgiveness Just for the castaways I think it's because we're alone
It's the perfect time to try again As we sleep inside our winter skin Speeding crimes your beating heart It's all that there ever is
We crimewaves Just like crimewaves Crimewaves
What you need What you need
What you know me by What you know me by
That's the way (That you know me by)
That's the way You will know me by What you need
This is what I hear. plus he says more in the coda "it's really fine" or something like that I think
Very enlightening, thanks much!

I can hear waves With my dorsum and thumb Now you speak for me? One day you may just be gone.
We're both just becoming so direct. I think it's because we're alone. It's the perfect time to try again as we slip inside our winter skin. The sweet inclines of a beating heart is all that there ever is. We cry in waves Just like crimewaves. Crying waits.
Spray my grafitti From my vintage gallant tongue. Now you see through me? Until, the getting is all done today? We, oh, save some forgiveness just for the castaways I think it's because we're alone.
It's the perfect time to try again as we sneak inside our winter skin The sweet inclines of a beating heart is all that there ever is We cry in waves. Just like crimewaves Crying waits.
What you need? What you need? What you know me by What you know me by What you know me by
That's the way
Goodbye
Repeat
That's the way you'll know my by baby What you need.
Sounds to me like "we're both just becoming so erratic"
That may be a possibility with the exception of erratic. It sounds like he's saying something like erraputic or irrepudent (neither of which are words). Not erratic.

dude hahaha it's definitely erratic... so clearly pronounced... Paul is not Cedric from Mars Volta to be making up words now...
The word that you're saying is 'erratic' is sung as a four syllable word. 'Erratic' is a three syllable word. It's probably not erratic.

This song just sounds and feels like it’s about two people fuck*%$ each other but shouldn’t be
Infidelity… « crime waves » …?
I don’t know, maybe nothing to do with it, but that’s just how I felt it the first time I heard it. Since then I’ve just twisted or interpreted the lyrics to fit my perception …
Amazing song
