lyrics

Lying on a roundabout and staring at the thunderclouds
The nausea only hits you when you stop
Hiding in the undergrowth, our hands inside each other’s clothes
We kissed until your cold-sore blister popped
Spinning slowly, losing sense, past-imperfect, present-tense
Daggers made from lolly sticks we tried to kick against the pricks
But how d’you fight a cue ball in a sock?
Breaking up and smashing plates and lashing out with razor-bladed words
That cut with every little strop
Spinning slowly, losing sense, past-imperfect, present-tense
This is the time and the place
This is the place and the time
Fault lines that don’t leave a trace
Cannot be traced in a line
Turning into someone else you realise that callous self-obsession
Is what really hurts the most
So clear the air and clear the decks and call it love and not just sex
This addiction needs another dose
Spinning slowly, losing sense, past-imperfect, present-tense
This is the time and the place
This is the place and the time
Fault lines that don’t leave a trace
Cannot be traced in a line
They cannot be traced in a line
The nausea only hits you when you stop
