When we walked the streets together
|
All the faces seemed to smile back
|
And now the pavements
|
Have nothing to offer
|
And all the faces seem to need a slap
|
|
There's an unfamiliar grip
|
On an unfamiliar handkerchief
|
Attending to the tears on cheeks
|
I wouldn't notice
|
With you no matter how vicious the grief
|
Her expression was damp and crooked
|
Grabs onto my throat and won't let go
|
|
Won't let go
|
Won't let go
|
Won't let go
|
|
Save me from
|
The secateurs
|
I'll pretend
|
I didn't hear
|
Can't you see
|
I'm the ghost in the wrong coat
|
Biting butter and crumbs
|
|
There's a handsome maverick
|
You don't talk about to keep me calm
|
And I can't help
|
But try create diversion???
|
Pulls you back onto his arm
|
|
Please don't tell me
|
You don't have to darling I can sense
|
That he painted you a gushing sunset
|
And slayed
|
Their pink panthers in your defence
|
He stands separate and ever deadly
|
Clings onto my throat and won't let go
|
|
Won't let go
|
Won't let go
|
Won't let go
|
|
Save me from
|
The secateurs
|
I'll pretend
|
I didn't hear
|
Can't you see
|
I'm a ghost
|
In the wrong coat
|
Biting butter and crumbs
|
