"The New" lyrics - INTERPOL

I wish I could live free, I hope it's not beyond me
Settling down, it takes time
One day we'll live together and life will be better
I have it here, yeah, in my mind

Baby, you know someday you'll slow
And baby, my heart's been breaking

I gave a lot to you
I take a lot from you, too
You slave a lot for me
Guess you could say I gave you my edge

I can't pretend, I need to defend some part of me from you
I know I've spent some time a-lying
I can't pretend, I don't need to defend some part of me from you
I know I've spent some time a-lying

How am I doing?

You're looking alright tonight, I think we should go
You're looking alright tonight, I think we should go
