CAN WE ALL PLEASE JUST CALM THE **** DOWN!? |
|
An analogy that makes sense to most: |
|
This opportunity had found me unmarked at the far post, |
|
But I blazed it right against the cross bar of the pub that you had worked in since you moved here from Bath Spa. |
|
We agreed we couldn't trust a guy that didn't like a single sport, |
|
But those bow-legged suitors hadn't given me much other thought. |
|
They said it smelt delicious but it smelt of burning flesh, |
|
It's not meant to be malicious but this is the cross we bare. |
|
The story of the winter I forgot how to speak: |
|
My mind was like a nation's flag but my breeze was too weak. |
|
How they dragged me to the hospital, |
|
Said I had gone deaf. |
|
But I'd heard everything they said, |
|
It's just I had no interest. |
|
Our friends have put the two of us on suicide watch and every second spent away we spent watching the clock. |
|
There are photos of us holding hands outside of the frame, |
|
I was there but wonder where our fingers were all the same. |
|
It's like our self restraint is the size of a fingernail. |
|
And yet we chew it down all the same. |
|
Sad eyes for sad goodbyes, |
|
It's a crime, |
|
It's a crime, |
|
It's a crime, |
|
It's a crime. |
