Crushing Grief (No Remedy)

  • She's dressed in blue and black again
    Sometimes red or yellow dress
    She can't seem to make up her mind
    A shed of light is hard to find
    She was too cool for me to catch
    Or was I too slow and second best?
    I always knew this day would come
    I've got some things to get off my chest

    This whole thing's open to conversation
    But I'm not holding my breath about it
    I'm sick and tired of all your bullshit
    When all it is who can scream the loudest
    And it's funny how the time it flies
    And the people how they change
    You know it's funny how you changed

    Crushing grief, there is no remedy
    The mess you made of me
    Sleep with the enemy and
    I'll miss that old routine we had
    Get high, have sex, get high again
    I know you wanted more from me
    It's something I could never be, fuck

    This whole thing's open to conversation
    But I'm not holding my breath about it
    I'm sick and tired of all your bullshit
    When all it is who can scream the loudest
    And it's funny how the time it flies
    And the people how they change
    You know it's funny how you changed

    (I don't need you) this whole thing's open to conversation
    But I'm not holding my breath about it
    (Keep your distance) I'm sick and tired of all your bullshit
    When all it is who can scream the loudest
    (I don't need you) and it's funny how the time it flies
    And the people how they change
    (Things have changed) you know it's funny how you changed

    Crushing grief
    There is no remedy
    The mess you made of me
    The worst I'll ever be

    I started looking past the point
    That you were always best for me
    I've fought my way through all of this
    I've learned and loved and fell apart
    I came through unscathed
    Albeit betrayed
    But fuck playing safe
    I won't let you get the best of me Writer/s: Benedict Barlow, Daniel Washington, Lloyd Roberts, Philip Thorpe-Evans, Sebastian Barlow
