Airport Arguments

from Minor Crush by Royal Chant

/

lyrics

Heading home when you said no
under the lamppost it’s all coming back to me
I became what I become
it’s not very becoming of me
keeping the peace whatever that means
I’d be content to watch you sleep
splitting infinitives, keep up appearances
becoming mythology
airport arguments, let’s make the most of them

Last chance, last legs
last words, last drinks
last flight, last train
loose ends, loose change
shaking out of me

Falling behind, falling between
a fever sweat in our fever dreams
weeping with envy, weep ‘til we’re empty
We’re not kidding in the least
we get around, we sweat it out
always a few tricks left up our sleeves
a permanent crush, it don’t take much
as anxious as the rest of us
airport arguments, shouting on command

Last chance, last legs
last words, last drinks
last flight, last train
last looks, again and again and again
looking over me

Slightly out of mind, drifting out of time
the mirror is slanted but suits us fine
avoiding distractions, playing in traffic
hiding in the seams
Just a shell of a shell, a shell of ourselves
at the end of our tether
we’re tarred and we’re feathered
face first through the looking glass
and when it comes it comes to pass
airport arguments, can’t get enough of them

Last chance, last legs
last words, last drinks
last flight, last train
loose ends, loose change
shaking out of me
