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 |
