Devastation - Matthew Ryan

Coffee is sweeter

Days are sharper

Since I lost her

Since I lost

From the steps of Saint Mark’s cathedral

I watch the steeple

Stab the clouds

Who’s lonesome now?

Never, never, never, never, never again

Never, never, never, never, never again

Never again

Remember when we met

We were so innocent

I was so cautious, you were so cool

The world was brand new

Never, never, never, never, never again

Never, never, never, never, never again

Devastation

Midnight now

In the city of sidewalks

I miss her so much

But not enough to call

I’ve wrapped myself in the sweet kiss

Of loneliness

She’s my mistress

She’s always been

Never, never, never, never, never again

Never, never, never, never, never again
