I am a sadder man than most
A better man than most
I have lifed a life that's empty
Yet to be fulfilled
I am a happy man
If a lonely man
I'm a desperate man
In debt by two grand
Blood has turned to stone
Tears to bone
A gesture of words
Won't bring me home
The Cocteau Twins
Sing to me
Not to you
Anna Gavalda
Doesn't write for you
She writes for me
Only me
David Lynch
Doesn't exist in your world
He exists in mine
Only mine

Tesco Toilet
I fucked you in your Sisters room
Then we had tea with your parents
You cut my wrists
Then we held hands along the beach
I put my fingers in you on a cold November day
Then we shared a hot choclate at the Christmas markets
In Paris, I put my arm around you
And bought you the prettiest shoes
We screwed in Tesco toilets
and struggled to make ends meet
I used to read you Oscar Wilde
Until you stabbed me in the back
I never told you but I loved you
You never told me but you hated me too
Then we had tea with your parents
You cut my wrists
Then we held hands along the beach
I put my fingers in you on a cold November day
Then we shared a hot choclate at the Christmas markets
In Paris, I put my arm around you
And bought you the prettiest shoes
We screwed in Tesco toilets
and struggled to make ends meet
I used to read you Oscar Wilde
Until you stabbed me in the back
I never told you but I loved you
You never told me but you hated me too
Blue Checked Shirt
Fragments of my imagination
Were splattered all over your bed
A simple case of over indulgence
You in my blue checked shirt
With a lump in your throat
Me with a stupid grin
Not knowing what year it was
My never ending hopes were dashed
Because me and your Dad clashed
You make me cry when you're sad
I live in a dream
What all of the things you could have had?
Were splattered all over your bed
A simple case of over indulgence
You in my blue checked shirt
With a lump in your throat
Me with a stupid grin
Not knowing what year it was
My never ending hopes were dashed
Because me and your Dad clashed
You make me cry when you're sad
I live in a dream
What all of the things you could have had?
Moon
The moon is a constant torch
Etched in the blankness
You are a shadow
Never yourself
The moon illuminates us
Whilst you destroy yourself
The moon is looking at me
Whilst you turn away from me
The moon is still
Whilst you wriggle, scratch and stare
What would I be without you?
It's anyones guess
Just an empty hole....where no light ever comes
Etched in the blankness
You are a shadow
Never yourself
The moon illuminates us
Whilst you destroy yourself
The moon is looking at me
Whilst you turn away from me
The moon is still
Whilst you wriggle, scratch and stare
What would I be without you?
It's anyones guess
Just an empty hole....where no light ever comes

The Last Goodbye - Part 2
It's the last goodbye I swear
I can't get by
On a love that doesn't go anywhere
I've been losing so long
I stopped dreaming
How long must this go on?
All the times I held you
I seem to think a lot
About all the things I forgot
I'll cry for someone else
How long must I search for something that is not lost?
I'll search at any cost
I heard all you said
But if I can save you anytime
I won't forget I swear
The past is behind me
I can't get by
On a love that doesn't go anywhere
I've been losing so long
I stopped dreaming
How long must this go on?
All the times I held you
I seem to think a lot
About all the things I forgot
I'll cry for someone else
How long must I search for something that is not lost?
I'll search at any cost
I heard all you said
But if I can save you anytime
I won't forget I swear
The past is behind me

Seperation
As I fell into unconsciousness
I fell into a deep well
I waved goodbye to the world
Your face stays imprinted in my mind
And I'll never forget you
I have lapsed into the dark
You'll never find me
I am not yours
You are not mine
But i still adore you
Like i did before
Our souls have sepearated
The parting of the sea
My favourite love
I'll never see
You whispered to me
Words I can't repeat
There you left me to my retreat
Every scene I've ever lived
Has flashed in front of my eyes
I'm like a passenger of a ghost train
Observing my errors
Lost 4 EVA
Hiding behind the bathroom door
I couldn't give you anymore
I fell into a deep well
I waved goodbye to the world
Your face stays imprinted in my mind
And I'll never forget you
I have lapsed into the dark
You'll never find me
I am not yours
You are not mine
But i still adore you
Like i did before
Our souls have sepearated
The parting of the sea
My favourite love
I'll never see
You whispered to me
Words I can't repeat
There you left me to my retreat
Every scene I've ever lived
Has flashed in front of my eyes
I'm like a passenger of a ghost train
Observing my errors
Lost 4 EVA
Hiding behind the bathroom door
I couldn't give you anymore
Cinema
The leaves have fallen
My body broken
No money to pay
No will to claim
Choices are confused
Blurred between rusty walls
Words scrawled on my celing
In permanent marker
Your skirt is over your head
Why is this?
Your spine is buckled
Why is this?
My dreams are draped over your shoulder
A barren sense of light
Diminish my returns
Damage my plight
Sat alone in the cinema
You sit and stare
Seeing yourself on the screen
Seeing me too
Don’t retract now
Only protract
The time you have left is precious
And so am I
My body broken
No money to pay
No will to claim
Choices are confused
Blurred between rusty walls
Words scrawled on my celing
In permanent marker
Your skirt is over your head
Why is this?
Your spine is buckled
Why is this?
My dreams are draped over your shoulder
A barren sense of light
Diminish my returns
Damage my plight
Sat alone in the cinema
You sit and stare
Seeing yourself on the screen
Seeing me too
Don’t retract now
Only protract
The time you have left is precious
And so am I
Christmas
Celebrations for nothing
Time eases the pain
The memory
And the shame
Decorations for nothing
A rotten taste in my mouth
A soothing taste
Gone to waste
Desperation for nothing
Clinging to hope
With a broken rope
You are a joke
Tears for everything
A water park
Drowned by yourself
Lost in the dark
Time eases the pain
The memory
And the shame
Decorations for nothing
A rotten taste in my mouth
A soothing taste
Gone to waste
Desperation for nothing
Clinging to hope
With a broken rope
You are a joke
Tears for everything
A water park
Drowned by yourself
Lost in the dark
Bad Book
You bring out the best in me
You bring out the worse in me
But most of all you bring the boredom out of me
I am happy and alone
You covered up everything
Including your mind
And you clouded mine
I’m always in your debt
But I don’t owe you anything
Everything is borrowed
And most things I forget
Envy drowns your eyes
You’re so easy to read
Like a bad book
From you nothing I took
You bring out the worse in me
But most of all you bring the boredom out of me
I am happy and alone
You covered up everything
Including your mind
And you clouded mine
I’m always in your debt
But I don’t owe you anything
Everything is borrowed
And most things I forget
Envy drowns your eyes
You’re so easy to read
Like a bad book
From you nothing I took
Detection
From the highs to the lows
To the knees to the toes
From the floor to the sky
From the when to the why
From the heights to the depths
From tears you gave me I wept
From the troubles to the joy
You were beautiful and coy
From your ripped pink towel
To the sex and that howl
You were NEVER mine
You were ALWAYS mine
To the knees to the toes
From the floor to the sky
From the when to the why
From the heights to the depths
From tears you gave me I wept
From the troubles to the joy
You were beautiful and coy
From your ripped pink towel
To the sex and that howl
You were NEVER mine
You were ALWAYS mine
