Zero

I still like going round
The old places from my past
Watching from the outside
In the hope they'll take me back
It's not my youth I'm after
It's not the protection
I just cant seem to get on with the man that I've become

And all my life, I've been waiting for you
And all my time, I've been preparing for you

Training myself like a dumb dog
Restraining myself with chains
Teach the past to stand up straight
So I can make the present change

And all my life, I've been waiting for you, and all my time, I've been preparing for you
Never give up, It'll never be the same, never give in, you've got to jump out of your frame

There's comfort in self hatred
it reeks of "return to form"
leave the curtains shut keep out
the glitter from the sun

Bones crossed into a tangent hug
An awkward silence but a toothy grin
I wouldn't mind changing into powder with you
If the moon doesn't come and drag the evil in
Sick of noise and sick of song
writing words and righting wrongs
But I just keep going, I'll keep on going

Moonbeams cause failure
Disaster and tiffs
Songs these days are too wordy
and the accents are all shit

And all my life, I've been waiting for you
And all my time, I've been preparing for you
Never give up, It'll never be the same
Never give in, you've got to jump out of your frame

It doesn't matter what you know
Or if there's good times coming
It doesn't matter that you'll be ok
When the grey rain vinegars in towards your heart
There's a river down your arm
And you cannae answer that
There's a rumbling outside
And the whole house is shaking
the world conspires against you
Safety lines are thrown
but
You cant see for the gold dust in your eyes
Your past is made of failures of foundations of futures, it doesnae
Matter because you're living for the moment
the moment is shit
It'll soon be over, but that doesn't help
When you can see around 7 corners
you're aware of all possible potentials and outcomes

Oblivion or zero, It's time to take control
Consequences vanish when you're fighting for your soul
tell me that I'll be ok, tell me without doubt
A shouting man running
as his flame flickers out
