Metafiction

Hang my head like a noose round my neck
I don't have a say in this
I got a head full of fire and a heart full of ice and spite
Take me down to the well for some water but instead just drop me in
I need a cold damp place
Not so bad
I can stay the night

Take me to bed
Underneath the moonlight
Lead me astray
You never have to ask twice
Stuck in my head
I struggle to remember
Falling away
Deep into the water
Show me a better love
If there's such a thing
Gimme a break
A fracture I can live in
Down to the bone
Healing only half way
Heaven can wait

So close the curtains turn the lights out and show me the way
We have another conversation that don't lead nowhere
I've got a million different reasons to drive you away
So take me down another black hole like I ever cared

Do we jump
Are we pushed
Are we happy just to be the latest noise
When the cold hard truth is we never really had a plan
They took our jobs
Took our lives
Took our money just to buy their brand new toys
I don't care
Not to say I don't even know or understand

Take me to bed
Underneath the moonlight
Lead me astray
You never have to ask twice
Stuck in my head
I struggle to remember
Falling away
Deep into the water
Show me a better love
If there's such a thing
Gimme a break
A fracture I can live in
Down to the bone
Healing only half way
Heaven can wait

So close the curtains turn the lights out and show me the way
We have another conversation that don't lead nowhere
I've got a million different reasons to drive you away
So take me down another black hole like I ever cared

Like I ever cared
Like I ever cared
Like I ever cared
Like I ever cared
