St. Charles Square

I fucked up
I'm not the first to do it
Must forgo now, your smile
Off the wall, beige
I'm fixtures and fittings now
Call me out, but call me

'Cause there's something down here
And it's living under the floorboards (ah!)
It's grabbed me 'round the neck with its long and slender claw, oh
Ooh, don't leave me here, baby, don't leave me completely (ah, ah)
'Cause I might not get back to myself at all
Ah!

St. Charles Square
This year's migration
Basement flat with
Window bars

Pauli's outside
Spare me the gloaters and the pain
I don't want it
Anymore

'Cause there's something down here
And it's living under the floorboards (ah!)
It's up and down the clock of the town hall back in time (ah!)
Oh, I'll ride with you, baby, I'll ride with you forever (ah, ah)
But we might not get back to ourselves at all, no
Tesco disco

The room is shrinking fast around me
It grabbed me by the ankle and pulled me under
Loneliness, I've been here before
'Cause every generation has its gilded posers

Weird vibrations in the basement
I don't like this scene
Pauli's ghost come back to haunt me
Think I'm gonna-
