The Common Cold
You said let’s go on a break,
Sounded a little bit fake,
Sounded like you just wanted,
To go on a date.
Well you don’t need my permission,
There’s no point for me to keep,
Wishing you were more, more.
You’re a world class liar,
I am a damn crier,
Try to drag you higher,
But the stars, they fragile(?).
And now I’m piecin' together,
A puzzle of your face.
But the part for your heart,
It never fits into place,
Oh-oh, place.
Love is a turbulent sea,
Are you scared to swim with me?
Swim past the fishermen’s nets that have,
Already tried to trap you and me.
I remember when you said,
“There are plenty of other fish in the sea,"
You said “if this is love, then the current will,
Bring you back, bring you back to me.”
Bring you back to me.
Feeling a certain shame,
Let myself be treated this way,
No this won’t happen again,
Not over my dead body.
Like two dumb dogs walking in circles,
Got a feeling, was I just chasing,
The wrong tail?
Well it's better having your head stuck up your ass
You can’t sail(?).
He said "you don’t appreciate me",
Like a bastard on heat,
Two weeks I couldn’t eat,
But I made my pain discreet.
Wouldn’t sit the exams,
You wanted me to take,
I’m above all your games,
This shark won’t fall for your bait.
Oh woah oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Plenty of fish in the sea,
But I just wasn’t hungry.
Love is a turbulent sea,
Are you scared of swimming with me?
Swim past the fishermen’s nets that have,
Already tried to trap you and me.
I remember when you said,
“There are plenty of other fish in the sea,"
You said “if this is love, then the current will,
Bring you back, bring you back to me.”
Bring you back to me.
