Unfamiliarity

I can't bear the thought of
Unfamiliarity
Or fast food love
I always thought I was the
One doing the leaving
Behind I suppose
You’re laughing at me now
At me now

I know the desperate
Late night priorities
Of a real plastic romance

I never shared a kiss from
At one night stand
That didn't taste of
Disappointment
The whisky wearing off to fast

I know more shadows than people
We call the night as our witness
The dark doesn't see how vulnerable we are
To skin, to speed and oblivion

I know more shadows than people
We call the night as our witness
The dark doesn't care how vulnerable we are
To skin, to speed and oblivion

One more trick and one more line
One more move to win the game
And reach that perfect situation

Untold unease beneath this
The shine of circus city lights
The surface smiling
For all the good moods you can buy
