As you squint and you grimace
We both know your heart's not in it
In the glow of a thousand fireflies
In a travelodge en-suite
They think the future's bright as halogen
We know it's pretty bleak
And I'm trying to be sexy
Biting at the air that falls in front of me.
The telegrams are more and more less detailed by the day
And all the characters are strangers
And the pubs have different names
I tell a joke, I'd like to meet them
But they'll loathe me and I'd hate them back
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Fondness makes the absence longer
Length loses my interest
I'm a realist, I'm insatiable
So, ten days until I fly
But that was before your reply
You said, "He got his teeth fixed"
I'm gonna break them
I've got a heart on fire
You said, "He's got his sights set"
I'm getting to ya
I've got fists on fire
And you feel terrified at the thought of being left behind
Of losing everybody, the necessity of dying
Oh, we kid ourselves, there's future in the *******
But there is no ******* future
I'm just practising my accents,
Picking at old sutures
I taught myself the only way to vaguely get along in love
Is to like the other slightly less than you get in return
I keep feeling like I'm being under-cut
Charlotte says it's more constructive than the one in Canada
And threw up by a football pitch
I know it is, and really that's what worries me
I feel like I should hurt
You said, "He's got his teeth fixed"
I'm gonna break them
I've got a heart on fire
He said he's got his sights set
I'm getting to ya
I've got fists on fire
I cannot emphasise enough that my body is a
Badly designed, poorly put together vessel
Harbouring these diminishing, so-called vital organs
And we are beautiful, we are doomed

This one time
I kissed a girl for class war.
I pulled her hips in close
and held my left fist high above her pale right clavicle.
She said "oh tell me...
First and foremost, let it be said,
I am writing this at 7: 10 am,
On the hard dry tarmac of a vacant forecourt.
But the sun is hanging round like sum...
Try to imagine,
A house that's not a home;
Try to imagine,
A Christmas all alone.
That's where I'll be,
Since you left me,
My tears could melt the sno...
One! Two! Three! Four!
One! Two! Three! Four!
One! Two! Three! Four!
Any more tears for the birthing pool?
Bear this child directly into misery
Kiss ...
I part the curtains of your hair
And all the light of the sun floods the room
Poured from your sleepy stare
Two seconds each morning without fail
Befo...
I was sick in my mouth because of the fear of the scent of an ex-girlfriend
And no more conversations about what Breakfast Club character you'd be
I'd...
I am the only one
Searching for you
And if I get caught
Well, then the search is through
And the stories you hear
You know they never add up
I hear th...
A wishbone hangs between your breasts
And if this little finger doesn't have the strength
Then I'm scared that this bird's back bone breaks
And that's...
By your hand is the only end I foresee,
I have been dreaming,
you've been dreaming about me.
By your hand is the only end I foresee,
I have been dream...
