Sonny

(album: The World Don't Owe You Anything - 2023)

All this self-sabotage is a wonderful thing
Gave me half my friends
And the strangest set of feelings
Waiting round as it all sunk in
Hope the time it mends
All the fences you've kicked in

I'm a former heavyweight
When the fight ends
Who's taken over
The will was spent
A planet collapsing the world crashed in
Was taken over
With no one spared

All this self-sabotage is a hell of a thing
Gave me half my friends
Left the strangest sense of grieving
Waiting round for your life to begin
You do the best you can
Just to bring it all undone

I'm a former heavyweight
When the fight ends
Who's taken over
The will was spent
A planet collapsing the world crashed in
Was taken over
With no one spared

I woke up singing about you
I woke as it all blurred
And moved and shapes fell into
The colours of all you were

I woke up singing about you
I woke as it all blurred
And moved and shapes fell into

I'm a former heavyweight
When the fight ends
Who's taken over
The will was spent
A planet collapsing the world crashed in
Was taken over
With no one spared...
