white hinterland - david lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
david, i don’t believe in god
i don’t think we’re heroes in this play
i see beauty in your eyes
but all around me
corruption, cruelty, and senselessness
you wanna know that time erodes all pain
with all certainty i can’t say

[verse 2]
david, i take no comfort in fate
unruly prevaricator
and bathos in the well of my memories
colors all it touches
sentimental and cheap

[chorus]
whatever you say
don’t say we were lucky
whatever you do
don’t call it chance
that’s like saying it was an accident
when i was running at you
running at you with my sharpest knife

[verse 3]
friends we know will fall behind
many of them at their own hands
some caught beneath the wheel of the bigger lie
they were f-cked from the start, baby
they never began

[verse 4]
david, i don’t need a second chance
though your hands are tied and mine are none too clean
this life is the only one i want to live
and it ain’t any less of a gift when it’s one you cannot keep

[chorus]
whatever you say
don’t say we were lucky
whatever you do
don’t call it chance
it was no accident
i was running at you with my sharpest knife
running at you
running at you
running at you with my sharpest knife
running at you with my sharpest knife
