Empty

Dont get so distressed
If the good life wont arrive
Youve been reading s.o.s.
When its just your clock reading 5:05
And why are you so possessed
By the thought that she got free
And why are you figuring whos the best
When just your luck ran out
And she chose me We do not lie side by side
And mock the thought of you
And I dont take her hand and ask
Is this what he used to do?
cos I just want to free her from
Your jails of jealous dreams
cos at least a house when its empty
Stays clean
I wont pretend
That I was simply swayed
It was a two way thing not a Three day fling
No secrets kept, no truth betrayed
And heres the house that held
The nightmare that went on And youre sitting there wishing youd never been born
With that self-inflicted crown of thorns
We do not lie side by side
And mock the thought of you
And I dont take her hand and ask
Is this what he used to do?
cos I just want to free her from
Your jails of jealous dreams
cos at least a house when its empty
Stays clean
I wont pretend
That Im the saviour of the innocent and bad
But put two withered old blooms in a couple of rooms
And theyll behave like lunatics
And crave what makes them sad
So heres a card that says
Happy twenty-second birthday and I wish you were dead
And heres a house that held
A bevy of devils and an angel as well
And you want what Ive got
When all Ive got is guilt
And a room that wont stay still
Filled with pockets full of crumpled up money and
A mantelpiece littered with bills
cos at least a house when its empty
Stays clean
