With one or two I get used to the room
We go slow when we first make our moves
By five or six bring you out to the car
Number nine with my head on the bar
And it’s sad, but true
Out of cash and I.O.U’s

I got desperate desires and unadmirable plans
My tongue will taste of gin and malicious intent
Bring you back to the bar
Get you out of the cold
My sober, straight face gets you out of your clothes
And they’re scared that we know
All the crimes they’ll commit
Who they’ll kiss before they get home

I will lie awake
Lie for fun and fake the way I hold you
Let you fall for every empty word I say

Barely conscious in the door where you stand
Your eyes are fighting sleep while your mouth makes your demands
You laugh at every word trying hard to be cute
I almost feel sorry for what I’m gonna do
And your hair smells of smoke
Who will cast the first stone?
You can sin or spend the night all alone

Brass buttons on your coat hold the cold
In the shape of a heart that they cut out of stone
You’re using all your looks that you’ve thrown from the start
If you let me have my way I swear I’ll tear you apart
Cause it’s all you can be
You’re a drunk and you’re scared
It’s ladies night, all the girls drink for free

I will lie awake
Lie for fun and fake the way I hold you
Let you fall for every empty word I say

I will lie awake
And lie for fun and fake the way I hold you
Let you fall for every empty word I say

I will lie awake
And lie for fun and fake the way I hold you
Let you fall for every empty word I sa

Breathe, trust, bless, me and release.
Climb, hard, or never be seen.
Closed off, rescue to breathe.
Just bless me.

Two sided time,
Your rebirth can’t hurt,
Branch out behind, the pain.

Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.
Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.

Had to to turn, lay down,
Your sting of disease.
Phase you out, should’ve seen this coming.
Go on confusing the soul,
Hold my breath till you rupture.

Three days aside,
Your rebirth can’t hurt,
Branch out behind, pride.

Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.
Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.

Like a leach,
I hold on as if we belonged,
To some precious pure dream.
Cast off, you’ve seen what’s beneath,
Now fail me.

Forget closure,
Forget closure,
Forget closure,
Forget closure.

Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me. (No)
Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me, to me.
No

When you think of falling skies
Remember there are a million ways to die

Don’t be afraid anymore
Don’t wear your inside out to keep you warm

So rest your head
It’s just as well
You can’t keep the sky from falling
Anyway

– Ane Brun, Lullaby for Grown-Ups

“I’ve had recurring nightmares that I was loved for who I am.
And missed the opportunity to be a better man.”
– Muse, “Hoodoo”

Your word’s to me just a whisper
Your face is so unclear
I try to pay attention
Your words just disappear

‘Cause it’s always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

So I speak to you in riddles
Cause my words get in my way
I smoke the whole thing to my head
And feel it wash away
‘Cause I can’t take anymore of this
I want to come apart
Or dig myself a little hole
Inside your precious heart

I am nothing more than a little boy inside
That cries out for attention
Yet I always try to hide
‘Cause I talk to you like children
Though I don’t know how I feel
But I know I’ll do the right thing
If the right thing is revealed

Inescapable
Your soft spot
Lethal the game
Fatal the light
Merciless flame

Who would dare to love again
If all cuts and every burn would awaken
And open wide the wounds again
Who would dare to love again
My friend

I’m a whisper in your snowstorm
Veiled in a dream shadowing suns
But if I could shed my armour
And lay in your arms
Sink in your death
Pass through to you

I could dare to love again
Even if the world awakened the pain
Lashing out pulling me down back in
I could dare to love with you
My friend

If I dare to love again
I expose myself to anything life brings
And all the threats are there again
Only this time I’m with you
My friend
