Extra strong toothpaste
To dilute the taste of my lies
Can’t you see from my eyes
A million tears have been summoned from my heart
Day after day the pulse has weakened
But you still don’t notice me falling apart
And how I’ve conjured up sordid thoughts in my brain
From the absurd to the insane
Some would describe my perseverance as inane
But even when I lose, I refuse to complain
Just as long as you give me another chance
To do this slow dance all over again

The aroma of cigarettes and cheap perfume
Drift from your mouth and cold bedroom
Dancing along the waves your fingers tread
Up and down my yielding body of woe
Your awkward laughter sends shivers
From my head down to my toes
Drowning in a puddle of woes
A serenade of love? A serenade of love?
I’ve never felt more uncomfortable
Than you’re making me feel tonight
And my mums walked in on the two of us
So what does that tell you?
Take your time, I’ve got all night….
