other half (uk post-punk) - ugly reunion lyrics
[verse 1]
an ugly reunion between
everyone who has ever done me wrong
and now that david’s gone, it’s a fitting gesture
the funeral didn’t feel a thing like him
i think maybe just to spite him
[chorus]
this is the sound of a life lived underbound
splitting at the seams, seeping into the muck underneath
[verse 2]
the wake feels more authentic
the blood up the walls
the calls for immediate supplies
it’s hardly a surprise when big bursts in
to deliver reserves and say a few words
and not one of them nice
[chorus]
this is the sound of a life lived underbound
splitting at the seams, seeping into the muck underneath
[outro]
went direct from the beds to the box
burnt black in both
what seemed sinister at the time, now seems cloying at most
so i’d like to make a toast to all the backhand decisions
self+serving deals and deep, deluded visions
of something that never existed and probably never will
but i suppose the further you go man, the more intensely you feel
that you’re owed something better for the smidgen of effort that you put in
and i put in so little, it only takes a fraction to go all in
so give me your pin man, and i’ll get out the cash
i know a man, man
independent, no strings attached
what big doesn’t know won’t hurt us at all
because when you’re knee deep in it
it’s really not that far to fall
