chop chop!
I've got myself to blame for this
I've tried to compensate for everything I'm not
And every face forgotten
You felt the sun warming your bed
You look so quintessential
Pressed against that cross
In the face of what was lost
Still I am not asking much of me
You're ignoring the matter
You'll shut me up and bleed me dry
With cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
But if nothing else matters
Then I will die trying
Thinking about you and I
Three years on Friday since we met
You felt that existential kiss upon your neck
How could we forget that still
I am through acting like this feels right
And now that nothing else matters
You'll shut me up and bleed me dry
With cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
But if nothing else matters
Then I will die trying
Trying not to think about
Saw yourself and no one else
It's on yourself and no one else
But with our hearts tied
I guess it serves me right
You'll shut me up and bleed me dry
With cheap champagne and a disappearing lifeline
If nothing else matters
Then I will die trying
Thinking about you and I
You'll shut me up and bleed me dry
Only on that hour of time
With cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
Only on that hour of time
