lyrics

I’m a different man in every city that I’ve been
And you wouldn’t like me in the ones that I’ve been sleeping in
you’re too far away to hate me anyway
How’s that hell you used to keep me in

Oh and loves a word I’ve heard said once or twice
When lovers fall when lovers die and when lovers fight
The air is vacant though I’m somewhat loosely waiting
To fall asleep to an alibi

But I woke up in a mess
With December on my breath
And melatonin pulled me from a high
So I broke down in cologne
To a girl I didn’t know
And asked her if she’d have my love tonight

There’s a place round here I’ve heard where lovers go
She took my hand she took my soul and she stole my phone
you’re too far away to care about me anyway
Where’s the harm in what you’ll never know

Please forgive me if I act a little insane
When I jumped the fence the grass had sharper blades
Tear my insides out and sign up for a liquor drought
Or just one more to see the day away

I’m sleepless in my chest
And I’m penniless at best
Becoming all the things you used to hate
So I broke down in berlin
Where the scars are coloured in
But here’s my last two cents for saving face

the company I keep
is just a wine to get to sleep
and drown out all the noises in my chest
but this bed it isn’t mine
and it’s someone else’s wine
this hotel’s not a prison cell I guess
so I tore my halo off
in a bar in Düsseldorf
its buried somewhere you will never find
with a taste for things I’ve borrowed
and a hint of fuck tomorrow
I wonder who will have my love tonight
