Tessellate Songtext
von alt‐J

Bite chunks out of me
You′re a shark and I'm swimming
My heart still thumps as I bleed
And all your friends come sniffing

Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let′s go, my love it's very late
'Til morning comes, let′s tessellate


Go alone my flower
And keep my whole lovely you
Wild green stones alone my lover
And give up on my heart

Three guns and one goes off
One′s empty, one's not quick enough
One burn, one red, one grin
Search the graves while the camera spins

Chunks of you will sink down to seals
Blubber rich in mourning, they′ll nosh you up
Yes, they'll nosh the love away but it′s fair to say
You will still haunt me


Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let's go my love it′s very late
'Til morning comes, let's tessellate
