Lyrics

I’ve been thinking , over drinking
Pushing it right to the brink of
happiness or is it just a
clever ruse
January it was scary
I just keep myself preparing
For the moment I will lose it
All again
In a state of convalescence
I just know that you are precious
Crying on the pavement
Cause I’m leaving you
Don’t forget the mark I left
You tried to get me off your neck
You know I’m evil
Well you are too
A kiss can destroy my philosophy
A kiss from the stranger inside of me I read a book on a train and I hoped you’d see You wrote a song you explained on the BBC
You try and you try and you try
Just to leave her
And you cry and you cry and you cry You nonbeliever
You die and you die and you die
Just like you do
You try and you try and you try
to leave her
And you cry and you cry and you cry Cause you don’t believe it
That you die and you die and you die I’ll kill you too
You are the best thing I never ever had You are the worst thing I ever ever did
A kiss can destroy my philosophy
A kiss from the stranger inside of me
I resurrect from the tomb you abandoned me You wrote a song you explained for the wannabes
A heart can unfold all the truths in me A heart that has broken philosophy
I read the note that you left on the bed for me I write a book then erase it entirely
