Vitamin K - Gruff Rhys

I wrote this song to save myself

And now I sing it because I’m saved

Because she said goodbye

So long it’s time to die

Sitting in limbo in a limousine

She was betrayed by ideas

Homemade skirt

And died black hair

Long time, oh!

Ages ago

Hey Vitamin K

Do you even remember my name?

As fragments of the past come tumbling sharply now into focus

Like a big red typhoon

And gallons and litres of shame

Waterfall from heights unknown in the universe

What matters is what happened to you my love

For you my love

Estuary English was her second tongue

She climbed a rung in the ladder

Bladder bursting overflow

Long time … in the eighties or so

There she stumbles crying insane

She was swayed by the money

Tummy full of tumbleweeds

Nose bleeding into the reeds

Hey Vitamin K

Do you even remember my name?

As fragments of the past come tumbling sharply now into focus

Like a big red typhoon

And gallons and litres of shame

Waterfall from heights unknown in the universe

What matters is what happened to you my love

For you my love

I wrote this song to save myself

And now I sing it because I’m saved

Because she said goodbye

So long it’s time to die
