Ruiner
Black cats and door mats are all I see as I make my way home up the road
and the stillness of the terraces
Feels like it's a therapy as I ponder my thoughts in the cold
True to form I've been drinking again
And though I feel like I'm a man in the zone
There is a faint thumping of dread
From the words which have been said
Via the pixels painting texts on my phone
They read
Well I've been trying to reach you
Where are you? I'e been lying here awake the whole night
And in a blind moment of panic
My fingers turn to static and I hit delete instead of reply
Straw hats and sun tans
Are things that any girl like you deserves
And then more
To be the apple in the eye
Of a high wage earning guy
Who brings his time and money all to your door
And I'll admit I'm a dreamer
But I'd rather be dreaming with my head in the air
Than to be stuck here on the ground
For decades, hanging around
Wasting my time from 10 til 6 on a chair
Instrumental
I told a lie
When I said it would be different and crossed my heart
But if you looked me in the eyes
You would have known that I was lying from the start
Cause I am, Iam, I am, I am a selfish man
And there was never an intention
Just a truthful apprehenision on my part
you said I told a lie
When I said it would be different and crossed my heart
But if you looked me in the eyes
You would have known that I was lying from the start
Cause I am, Iam, I am, I am a selfish man
And there was never an intention
Just a truthful apprehenision on my part
and the stillness of the terraces
Feels like it's a therapy as I ponder my thoughts in the cold
True to form I've been drinking again
And though I feel like I'm a man in the zone
There is a faint thumping of dread
From the words which have been said
Via the pixels painting texts on my phone
They read
Well I've been trying to reach you
Where are you? I'e been lying here awake the whole night
And in a blind moment of panic
My fingers turn to static and I hit delete instead of reply
Straw hats and sun tans
Are things that any girl like you deserves
And then more
To be the apple in the eye
Of a high wage earning guy
Who brings his time and money all to your door
And I'll admit I'm a dreamer
But I'd rather be dreaming with my head in the air
Than to be stuck here on the ground
For decades, hanging around
Wasting my time from 10 til 6 on a chair
Instrumental
I told a lie
When I said it would be different and crossed my heart
But if you looked me in the eyes
You would have known that I was lying from the start
Cause I am, Iam, I am, I am a selfish man
And there was never an intention
Just a truthful apprehenision on my part
you said I told a lie
When I said it would be different and crossed my heart
But if you looked me in the eyes
You would have known that I was lying from the start
Cause I am, Iam, I am, I am a selfish man
And there was never an intention
Just a truthful apprehenision on my part
