Never Going To Change

I put on my shoes and cover my bruise
The sentiment see-through as glass
I gave you my hand for your teeth to brand
By light of the silvery gas

I loosen my chin so you can reach in
And metastasise all of my airways
Your cruelty spreads from my feet to my head
Corrupted but captivated

I sing to remember then drink to forget
Always the same
We dance in the embers and think of regret
And hide the shame
Appraise and blame
'Cause we're never ever going to change

I go with the flow but somehow you know
The secrets I hide on my bookshelf
I change all the locks and I bury the box
The mystery we keep to ourselves

I sing to remember then drink to forget
Always the same
We dance in the embers and mither regret
And hide the shame
Appraise and blame
No we're never ever going to change

My shackles are snapped, I might just be back
I'm one in a million, a brilliant civilian
The counter attack of the amnesiac
Repetitive stories can get pretty boring

I drink to the memories then kiss them away
Back here again
I feel so much joy, so I feel too much pain
It's hard to explain and it's tough to sustain
But we're never ever ever ever never ever going to change
