lyrics

If this is what you built of everything then I'm glad I'm not around
I'm far enough away
In a room with a view
I preferred you when you were you
You'll come back with words like 'sidewalk', 'aluminum' and 'gasoline'

When I heard what you thought of everything I was glad you weren't around
And far enough away
In a room that's not your own
Far from former homes
A mess of sterile worktops
The smell of sweet chlorine

When I consider the consequences of loving you
I weigh it up and I soon find the value in defeat
The sinking feeling finds me desperate and alone
A chapter to be ended
A book to burn
A door to close
