Honest Skrew - Patrick Park

Wake up next to you, honest screw

Because you always go too far

So, you slip slowly out, to sit in the next room

And eat your breakfast in the dark

It won’t feed your cold and lonely heart

Hush, hush before you say

Something you can’t take away

You step out for a cigarette

You wait and you watch and you try to forget

How the world doesn’t need you around

You’re helplessly hollow

And you’re feeling the sting

You’ve always had your doubts

Last night’s naked kisses mock you over your shoulder

They light you up, then they blow you out

Then they kill you without a sound

Hush, hush before you say

Something you can’t take away

You step out for a cigarette

You wait and you watch and you try to forget

How the world doesn’t need you around

Hush, hush before you say

Something you can’t take away
