new academics - balcony confessional lyrics

Loading...

you p-ssed me the last straw
said you didn’t think you could do it anymore
i frowned; ‘are you sure’
’cause right now i’ve got a snowballing itch
that’s not going to be cured by the usual six pack
of amber fluid, so other plans had been brewed
but you were being wise and i knew it

so arm in arm we trekked back through the mud
coming on, coming up to the centre of the floodlit festival
knowing the best was still to arise
as first light made its move on the skies
and shouts and laughter become moans and sighs
we stepped off pathways bent to turn circles in my tent

oh sacrifical lamb, wherever you stand
please know you’ll always be part of me
bittersweet chemicals cannot be washed from my sheets
your blood has entered these arteries

from my balcony, the city seems a glowing tapestry of cold light
into which your carlessly held cigarette burns and bites
smouldering holes in the woven glow
without a word you end its life in the ashtray below
i flow to my feet, our bodies gently meet
fingertips greet a sketchpad of skin
where another lover commited unforgiveable sins
with his needles and ink, long before she could legally drink
the stink is on me too
i’m just another face in the line-up it’s true
all men who’ve taken without giving
sucking love out of the living

oh sacrifical lamb, wherever you stand
please know you’ll always be part of me
bittersweet chemicals cannot be washed from my sheets
your blood has entered these arteries

opened my mouth for the truth
but the lies were the first thing that moved
i tried to suck them back again
but their wings were too strong
i watched them crawl into your ears
and relieve all your reasonable fears
reached out to grab hold of their tails
but the damage was done

oh sacrifical lamb, wherever you stand
please know you’ll always be part of me
bittersweet chemicals cannot be washed from my sheets
your blood has entered these arteries
