lyrics
I stayed the night with misery
Talked to the front desk, stayed for free
Had the amenities
Yeah I was out for blood without apology
I booked the night with misery
I ‘d seen the worst so they told me
The miracle, and the mess
Waste not lest ye be wasted
My blood is under pressure
Fear not the solitude of having standards
Climb the rungs, human ladders
The saddest thing in life is a gesture
It’s the eyes that ruin us
The bastard sons and daughters,
of fallen dogs and pretenders
Some people talk, some respond
They ruin us
It’s a fine point
But it’s not sharp
Erase these things
These things of you
When we will meet
We feel the need
Hold hands like ghosts
White knuckles closed
I stayed the night with misery
Talked to the front desk, stayed for free
Had the amenities
Yeah I was out for blood without apologies
If there is a god
I would feel like Jonah
There was never a true north
Penny dreadful left me hopeful
Like a race horse equipped with blinders
Violent, decades
I died, in vain
Less life, head in, the sand, the sand
I can’t, contest
Announce, our love
We’re not certain
Nothing certain
Jonah, Jonah
Never a true north
Jonah, Jonah
Never a true north
Jonah, Jonah
Never a true north
Jonah, Jonah
Never a true
