lyrics

Its a fusillade of fucking futility
The humdrum thrum of hard earned humility
An introspective case study of daily worry
And a note to myself not to wish it all away
In a hurry

It crossed my mind I was out of line
Another evening awry due to my
Inability to stay dry
Or even just a little damp

I upset you all over and said I don't recall
And that you exaggerate and overstate
But you know I know thats not the case
Its just easier for me to say that

Than Im just a piece of work...
In progress

Ill stay away forever and a day
If you say that you don't want me around
Ill pluck the strings of the worlds smallest violin
And cry the tears of a clown

Its a blitzkrieg blast of banality
This dull lull of our actual reality
An insipid example of the waste of a gift
And a note to self don't lose sight...
Theres more than this

It was a decade ago that we sang "If only, if only I could stop"
But the years in between suggest, well they suggest that I cannot
Im not ready yet and I don't know when
How many times until the penny drops
The biggest enemy is the one within
And the only way to start is..
To want to fucking begin
The process

So Ill stay away forever and a day
If you say that you don't want me around
Ill pluck the strings, the worlds smallest violin
And cry the tears of a clown
Ill play Nearer My God To Thee and gently weep
As that smile turns to a frown

Let the ship go down!
