Lyrics
No romantics, you insist
Promise not what you can't for sure keep
Definite not no don't you dare hope
To say stay together is chair-jumped neck-roped
But
You're a living thing
Scoring your skin
Gather those nails and hammer them in
Cos that walls for hanging
This frames for hope, and
Fifty score words with which speech cannot cope
Oh-
Little graze turned clever gauge
Of how little this reciprocates
I'm not asking fealty or ever to care
Not a swear but sincerity
I'm not sure we share, but
You're a living thing
Scoring your skin
Gather those nails and hammer them in
Cos that walls for hanging
This frames for hope, and
Fifty score words with which speech cannot cope
Oh-
So I'm held, and I hold
that don't lessen the load
But somehow I still feel we could break the mold cos
You're a living thing
Scoring your skin
Gather those nails and hammer them in
Cos that walls for hanging
This frames for hope, and
Fifty score words with which speech cannot cope
Oh-
Cos that walls for hanging
This frames for hope, and
Fifty score words with which speech cannot cope
Oh.
