Scene of the Crime Lyrics

Lyric discussion by rafaelvspt 

Cover art for Scene of the Crime lyrics by Placebo

Uh, it's clearly about sex. "Send me a sign, let me know Give me a time, a place I should go Reach inside, watch me grow See me rise." One's inviting other for sex, then quite a metaphor for erection there.

"We almost made it, But making it is overrated" Sex isn't about when it ends, but the doing of it.

"Scene of the crime, go with the flow Take it fast, take it slow Stay blind so I don't know what's right.

Our breath evaporates Before our eyes The ground beneath That shakes under our weight" Even clearer the song is about sex.

This album is so great and yet so different than other Placebo's albums.
