lyrics

Oh the whole world’s a heartbreak
It’s not enough to stay alive still every baby’s gotta cry
You take it as an inspiration
Now yr the celebrated queen of only barely getting by
Don’t speak of tomorrow and much less today
Nor of truth and lies what does it matter anyway
Just don’t fuck me over
Here in the crotch of the cliché
Here in the belly of a world that is aching for to die
I wonder do I disappoint you, or is it only me whose expectations are so high
I find the whole thing rather charming
That every spasm of my will just prolongs the fantasy
Now I’m trapped behind my closed eyes
As you list the things we’ll buy when we win the lottery

Don’t fuck me over.

Spoiled for choice don’t make you free
This is a necessity
We can hardly think we’ll make it on
It’s not what it’s supposed to be whatever that’s supposed to mean
We can hardly think we’ll make it on on on
