all these buildings are falling through waves
but their brickwork stays just the same
this architecture is precious
your mind is a mess of bird calls and pin pricks
and the souls of your shoes share a taste with gold today
i’d like to see what chemicals are running round your head
so much seratonin and dopamine that you’ll blow up before tomorrow
try make yourself awake this morning
you have nothing to do apart from your mouth to run…
… me out of the ball park with.
you won this game and i swear you’ll win the next
you won this game and i swear you’ll win the next
you won this game and i swear you’ll win the next
there’s no way that i’d like to turn out like him
alone and desperate with barely even 2 legs to stand on
literally
this half is coming to close and everyone’s all cookie cut hair
and fashion that outspeaks them
let’s have a team talk and not waste these few minutes
you’ll do motivational and i’ll do apathetic
you won this game and i swear you’ll win the next.

and i think we all must have some sort of morbid fascination with the things that tear us apart,
whether it be a power station at the side of the road or your picture on my mantlepiece.
because it’s definitely true that everything is improved when you see it from far away.
it’s clear to me that the pacific is far enough to see that when i think of you.
i’d be a fool to think that by now you weren’t beside yourself and set for the future
with someone new in mind,
but even still when i see smokestacks or the back of someone in the highstreet,
you spring to mind,
you always will,
at least for now.
“he” whoever he may be in this situation,
could never love you as much as i could try to,
you’d be a fool to argue that without giving me the chance.
but even still when i see smokestacks or the back of someone in the highstreet,
you spring to mind,
you always will,
at least for now.
