it's time to play all the games and songs that make us feel okay
it's time today, for all the rancid thoughts we never dare to say
and once we've given up pretending there's still something that we share
is there gonna be somebody left who'd care
and all our friends who shouldn't hear just what we want to say
they take our hands, and with insistence they keep dragging us away
but once we've given up our new ways trying to embrace our past
will no one understand just what we've lost
it's time to play all the games and songs that always stay the same
it's time today for all the thoughts and feelings that are driving us insane
and once we've given up on giving up our stupid little ways
wouldn't we rather be at someone else's place

fate brought us together, i'm sure fate will make us part
i can tell from the convulsions that keep ripping through my heart
and then i will take a ferry to go watch some northern lights
to where no one gets upset 'bout how i spend my sleepless nights
i tried talking to my friends but they don't care 'cause it's the seaons
when my heart'll yearn to tell me that i miss you, for no reason
and as we just grow more distance as our lives run their own course
i've grown a dry patch on my head in the same spot where you got yours

look into the clouds
look under the shroud
look inside your heart, forever
look inside yourself
look for someone else
see if you can find anyone better
and every now and then you start to wonder what you fear
when every of your pick-ups lasts for more than half a year
may your inkling 'bout tomorrow's happenings be far removed
from the schemes which all your lovers if in jest had half-approved
so that you may ever after hold each other in your arms
as if that was what you wanted, as if those were your demands

recorded in the Bargain Spot basement on Lothian Road, january 2016. drums by jasmeen
where are you to tell me how to live my life today
and stop reading shit into the things that people say
somewhere 'cross the ocean you think there's one of your kind
what do you expect to find there, what d'you think you'll leave behind
your feline features are so graceful it almost makes me puke
just like them i'm standing 'round awaiting your rebuke
but all confidence is useless when your names aren't yet enshrined
like all confidence is useless when you two are not entwined
and I just want to sink my teeth into your soft white flesh
starting at your shoulder working down onto your chest
when I walked you through that doorway just to see how things evolved
take my wisdom, cheeks, confusion's there to be resolved
so when Eilish bailed on me again, I went down the road
down to where the sickos are, the injured old and dying
they said: see no evil, speak no evil, never hear me say
something 'long the lines of "my do I look cute today"
'cause everything is broken and my heart is broken too
in more than just one way but neither is because of you
and I just want to sink my teeth into your soft white flesh
starting at your shoulder working down onto your chest
when I walked you through that doorway just to see how things evolve
take my wisdom, cheeks, confusion's there to be resolved
and when I look at you looks like you're looking for someone
in every room you enter as your grind goes on and on
but I can't get your attention and nothing's there to fill the void
I've never been a man of action, just waiting 'round to be destroyed

so far from the one you're craving, the one you called your friend
from what you had just in that moment, what was there before it ran
like the smallest of the weakest that we decided to set free
in the middle of the night to face its death beneath that tree
following the night’s unfolding I can promise that for long
you won’t be the last to suffer, not the last to be done wrong
if you only just embraced it the same way we used to do
it might help your getting on, it sure won't help my missing you
and in that dark and lonesome staircase I was fine
and in that dark and lonesome staircase I could have been better
and in that dark and lonesome staircase I could have just opened my eyes
if I’d thought that there was something more to see
and I looked at the people, they’re all ugly
and I looked at the people, they’re all filth
and even though my eyes were shut when I turned back to look at you
I can see that you and me we both are ugly too
