about

A song of frustration, after slipping back to a mental state I thought I'd left a while ago.

lyrics

I bore you today and I swore you did everything right,
But I made the mistake of endorsing your half beaten pride,
Yeah you done it again well of course you did, everytime,
I know you did all that you could but it wasn’t inside

It’s just for the night,
It’s just for tonight,
Keep hanging on,
I said all along that something ain’t right

I wander away to the borders the corners the mines
I wander away coz I’m already bored of the fight
Yeah you done it again well of course you did everytime
You shoved it away and just left it to fester a while

It’s just for the night
It’s just for tonight
Keep hanging on
I said all along that something ain’t right

Lower your tone coz I’m getting there slowly I’ll see you at the end of the night
Coz I’ve been here before and I’ll be back I’m sure in this stand off this capsule in time
I didn’t know you at all when the fog came that night
I didn’t see you til the light of the dawn
I didn’t know you at all and I lost all foresight,
Of the context of this cold cold war
