Lyrics
Olivia, In a Separate Bed
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So this is how it ends
In separate beds
A wall between us
And this is how it dies
Separate our lives
And hope it heals us
I chose the love of strangers
I chose the fickle crowd
And the woman i wagered
Won't look at me right now
(not now)
I know i've been like a house cat
Give me this, give me that
And i know i'll be okay
But beg for my attention
A word from my affection
I just stare and walk away
How can i show you
I'd do all i could do
To show you i adore you?
Olivia
And the days go by
In a supplicated style
Hand me the anodynes
Oh, olivia
I still love you
And i know i will
'til i die
And this feels like
Common madness
Why this wasted life?
Come to me
The photographer is lucky
Does he even know my name?
Does he know i'd give it all up
If i only could be here?
But i used all my chances
(and a few after that)
Now i'm floating in the ashes
Olivia
And the days go by
In a supplicated style
Hand me the anodynes
Oh, olivia
I still love you
And i know i will
'til i die
And this feels like
Common madness
Why this wasted life?
Come to me
