lyrics

Nothing Ever Happens, It Only Seems To

flat tyres & prescription speed
a thousand miles go by in
an hour of cheap TV
coz it don’t take much
to lose my place
when you’re sleeping
or when you’re awake

time doesn’t pass it stops & starts & stutters
and I repeat myself when I get nervous

conning me with a line of dirt
I’ve done my best and now it’s worse
it’s the same as it was before
we’re tamed and then we’re bored
I see you clench your fists
for whatever good it’s worth

even the softest silks against my skin
feels like 100,000 pins

nothing ever happens, it only seems to...

how many days with that same expression?
washing our hair in a public restroom

flat tyres and prescription speed
a thousand hours go by in
I smeared off all your make-up
you did the same to me

time doesn’t pass it stops and starts and stutters
and I repeat myself when I get nervous

nothing ever happens, it only seems to...
