Say it again
Repeated phrases
Things you loved that now you're hating
You don't need to drill it in
Turns out that you've been quite busy
Anyone, anywhere
I shouldn't care
With sadness never waning
I ride at dangers pace
We may be torn but we will bathe in our mistakes
I leave in early hours just to see your face
And I may come to regret this in a day
The more I know, lies of love on the coast
You switch off in a second and leave me alone
Here's to a hundred ways to waste three years
Or find in a second that nothing's changed
With sadness never waning
I ride at dangers pace
We may be torn but we will bathe in our mistakes
I leave in early hours just to see your face
And I may come to regret this in a day
(Staring at my shoes
Walking away from you
Always forward
Never looking back)

You saw birds, I saw DNA strains
Body aches and growing pains
The exhibition held our silence
Made me question the mundane
We left it in a place of post-lust / pre-love
And never met again
You saw birds, I saw DNA strains
Left feeling slighted, robbed without fighting
16 days away
I sent a birthday card
I trust that you're okay
I'm honestly sorry that we left it this way
Our frequent meetings sold my sadness
Then I'd get back on the train
It never ended, the daily confessions
Now I don't see her the same
I won’t reach out again
But I hope that you’re okay
Left feeling slighted, robbed without fighting
16 days away
The future frightens, my chest tightens
Ditched on a whim again
You saw birds, I saw DNA strains

Anyone But You

We used to have love but that didn't work
We've got the heartache and the hurt to show
Take a look around, see what you've got
Because what you've got, you don't know
I tried to give you everything
But you wouldn't take it from me
I used to think I had a lot to share
But you want me to leave you be
Because you say you don't care
For me
For them
For anyone but you
You say you don't care
Broken glass and a pugilistic evening release
I think of Adam and where he'll be with nobody to see
We did our best, we offered time
If only it were enough
It's the same with you and I
But time doesn't equate to love
I'd try to give you anything
And you'd always take it from me
I used to think I had a lot to share
But you want me to leave you be
Because you say you don't care
For me
For them
For anyone but you
You say you don't care

Signs: 'OUT ER'
01:14
|

Love coveted, our lust restrained
Is this how our bodies were meant to be made
There's only so much that I can take
Are you testing my limits until I break
I know I've been a cowardly friend
Longing for beginnings but scared for the end
I know it's easy to get caught up
But I'm left, again, feeling fucked
It's strange to me that no one's alarmed
By the signs we have: 'OUT ER'
How the years would be easier
If I had the same signs applied to her

A party bag with limbs in
Your ring left on the floor
Gone are the days of 'I love you's
And 'No, I love you more's
Your head's finally elsewhere
I should see you for what you are
Easy to mistreat and lead
Tearing honest hearts apart
Your routines are never fading
Do your attitudes not change
Some things should be left to be
You shouldn't be afraid to die alone
Because you'll be fine from one night to the next
But if it's longevity that you're after then I think it's probably best
That you ditch your expectations of any consistencies
As no one will ever be there for you like you were once for me
It shouldn't be wrong that it still feels good in this time I've spent with you
There are endless people that you could choose but
No one will ever love you like I do
No one will ever love you like I do
No one will ever love you like I do
No one will ever love you like I do
We can sing the praises of Zimmerman
We can stay out through the night
I've stopped eating and I've stopped sleeping
I think my head just might collapse at any moment
At the hint of morning light
My fuck ups will haunt me for the rest of my life
