Lyrics

Why don't we go round one more time? Why don't I show you again? Why don't we take this right back to the start? I've a situation Been going on for years I can't seem to make peace with myself I can't seem to make peace with myself I can't seem to make peace with myself Since you broke my heart Broken my heart Broken my heart Broken my heart The voices in my head Shut them up, I cannae get out Hear what they're saying The voices in my head Here they come, I cannae drown out Here's what they're saying You are the worst piece of shit that ever has lived I didn't know what love was Now I know Niggling doubts are friendly moments of clarity And oh, what about those characters I have to play? Strip 'em away Strip 'em away Strip 'em away Strip 'em away And there's a tartanica treacle pot Bubbling away, a boiling void of negativity A rush of unspoken seething despair Imagine being chained to this to despair Fuck off with your happiness Fuck off with your happiness Love is a momentary lapse in self-loathing Love is a momentary lapse in self-loathing Love is a momentary lapse in self-loathing That's what it is That's what it is Love is a momentary lapse in self-loathing That's what it is That's what it is Oh my slightly heavy eyelids Lightning bolt from ground to sky I sneak in a punch to the back of my sense heart Hear you tiptoe heavily by And I try to imagine these weights removed I'd shoot right off to the moon It's during decades like these I wonder If I'm not the cause of all gravity I think I have a greater respect For people who hate me Even more for those who don't feel the need to even get to know me My love would appear to have been butchered Settling, rotting in the sun Not much I can do about that Or hide in a song I think I need I think I need I think I need sense heart I think I need sense heart I think I need sense heart I think I need sense heart I think I need I think I need I think I need I think I need I think I need I think I need I think I need
