Up to Nil

Been paying bills and swallowing pills
Feeling raw, undone, and ready for a refill
Yet I'm drowning in overkill

When all I focus on adds up to nil
I just can't fulfill, everything's moving uphill
And at the top, there's a standstill

Like a bruise upon a bruise
I'll give you the blues forever
I'd rather be the accused
But the phobias come whenever

I'm remembering you (yeah!)
Let's remember together
Remembering you (yeah!)

I must be vile with a girlproof smile
My teeth in line and a grin like a crocodile
Some kinda docile reptile

When all I follow leads me into exile
It makes me hostile and worse, juvenile
A denial would be futile

Like a bruise upon a bruise
I'll give you the blues forever
I'd rather be the accused
But the phobias come whenever

I'm remembering you (yeah!)
Let's remember together
Remembering you (yeah!)

Though life is sweet, I feel incomplete
Defending myself right through to my naked feet
It's like driving from the back seat
