lyrics

These simple words are wrong
I said I love you
It took too long
Do you always have to sing that same dark song

I saw you turning red
Maybe it’s better if you don’t know what I said
Maybe I’d better not stay
If I was you I’d forget everything I say

It’s been a long time coming
I’m down in some tube station
Drunk and humming
You’re a flash frame
You never stay the same
You could dive for cover
But you know that you’re unfair game

I saw you thinking out loud
I nearly laughed but I’m not proud
Do you always have to bring that same dark cloud

I saw you turning blue
I don’t think you’re in control of the stuff you do
Maybe I’d better not stay
If I was you I’d forget everything I say

These simple plans screw up
It’s dark around here
I lost my coffee cup
