Sleeping Rough

shoot out the lights
we’re sleeping rough like a tantrum
smile with our eyes
keep it up like a mantra
we’ve been trying for a while
what’s the hold up
wipe that smile
what’s your style?
now we’re on a roll
I know, I know, I know, I know
lost it all in a heart breaker
I know, I know, I should have known
choose your mask, cut me off
I know, I know, I know, I know
don’t it hurt something good
I know, I know, I should have known
wait for me
wait and see
keep them laughing
in this age of adrenaline
wrap your lips
around this barbed wire fence again
been discarded in an instant coffee can
we haven’t yet
for the best
now we’re on a roll
I know, I know, I know, I know
lost it all in a heart breaker
I know, I know, I shouldn’t know
pick a mask, cut me off
I know, I know, I know, I know
don’t it hurt something good
unravelling
make believe
uncertainty
conspiracy
grind your teeth
wait for me
shoot out the lights
we’re sleeping rough like a tantrum

Throwing down the gauntlet and what do we get?
Threading the needle again and again
Now I can’t tell if we’re in the midst
of checkers or if this is chess
I reckon we’ve fallen in love with the mess
this mess
I am an epithet
I am a nervous wreck
we got an affection for broken things
affectations and broken wings
we speak of love and miseries
the train wrecks the whispering
it feels just like a powder keg
this mess
It was an accident
Ambivalent
It was an accident, I am a nervous wreck,
this isn’t happening, it’s only chicken scratch
Is this a heart attack? This is no accident,
I am a nervous wreck, I am an epithet
