lyrics

Don't worry about me,
I was preoccupied with a fantasy,
Anger has turned into defeat
My disgust is less than discrete,
A dozen yellow roses set ablaze,
There was nothing but hell to pay,
I walk through the ashes miserably,
While being buried six feet under me,
You're a symphony and a plague,
The types of poems that are cryptic and vague,
The words you never meant to say,
Snuffed out inside a heart shaped ashtray,
No one is ever what they seem,
Now this heart is like an urbexer's wet dream,
Yearning to break into it,
Abandoned by someone who could never commit.

I was your desire
But you hate me
I am on fire
People please leave me be

I'm filled with nothing but unwarranted regret
I wish you were
and I wish we never met.

Clouds of cigarette smoke,
Drinking with the down trotted folk,
There's some solidarity,
Collective broken hearts hanging heavy,
It makes me so mad,
Every genuine heart I know is sad,
But we will spend the whole night,
Convincing ourselves that we'll be alright,
Giving advice to another friend,
When I can't take my own in the end,
Don't fall for me if I give it to you,
I just see more in you then you do,
I'll be there for you in the end,
Don’t expect me to fall for anyone again,
If you do then you better leave it be,
You're not going to be the one who saves me.

I am your desire
But I hate me
I am on fire
People please leave me be
I'm filled with nothing but unwarranted regret
I wish she was
and I wish that we had never met

No mountain nights
No neon lights
I'm lost in the crowd
I bet you must be proud

I can't believe I didn't see
That the joke was always on me

Fly free now
little song bird
you never meant
a single word

I can't believe I didn't see
That the joke was always on me
