A CAPTIVE AUDIENCE |

i'm gonna make it go away, like it never happened / like the author ran out of ink, before you got to me / it doesn't matter, you have your answer / my breath upon yer hand / my breath upon yer hand / cos we're never far from another life / but i never wanted to make you spend the night / with yer loneliest thoughts / will you come around this time / will i be left here / ooh, love / when so proudly we fail and all the optimists sing / "yeah, we'll be that far" / when we'll be that far behind / it's the drug distraction(tm) / they'll scream when i kick / but for every moment that i get too close / to the faceless void from which i stumbled / it's only because my heart swells over / and i misinterpret it, i dwell on my failures / cos i had parents who taught me to love / yeah, love was something / they never knew / they never cared about you anyway / a hope vicarious, a captive audience / even the people that you call your friends / can fuck you over in the subtlest ways / it'll be your comfort that you're always alone / they never cared about you anyway / they never cared / they never care so much / as when you've lost your way / fire and brimstone where they lay me / heaven help us for a way to get out of here / ooh, love |
