Calais to Dover |
Under a microscope of apoplectic vision |
My face on a slide show, I looked totally unhinged |
Forgot the Latin word, the name for this condition |
Said I felt sick to get attention |
Now this winter got an excuse to not go home |
Rented a house out on the coast |
Flying away, I heard a memory, your voice over the engine |
So full of remorse and apprehension |
Now that you’re gone |
Now that I’m out here on my own |
It won’t be long |
‘Til I have to pay for what I’ve done |
Tell me to stop |
Tell me to watch the way I talk |
Because nothing is changing |
Don’t want to state the obvious |
Threw up on the ferry ride from Calais back to Dover |
As pale as the white cliffs that we faced |
Wasn’t afraid, eventualities, just knew that it was over |
No brushes with death could keep us sober |
If I was in London I’d hold you to everything |
If we were in Cardiff I’d just sing |
But I’m stuck in Omaha obsessed with my inventions |
There isn’t a name for this condition |
Tell me I’m wrong |
Tell me you understand my love |
Tell me what’s off |
What would you like to turn back on? |
Tell me what’s gone |
Make me a list of what you lost |
Because everything’s changing |
Don’t want to state the obvious |
Tell me what’s wrong |
Tell me I’ll pay for what I’ve done |
Tell me what’s up |
Pain like a big red rubber ball |
I wish it would stop |
I wish I could tell you it was gone |
But nothing is changing |
Sorry to state the obvious |
Now that you’re gone |
Tell me you understand my love |
Tell me what’s wrong |
Make me a list of what you lost |
That’s all that I want |
I’ll pay for what I’ve done |
Nothing is changing |
To state the obvious |
