Black Cloud

(album: The Callous Heart - 2015)

You threw our rings into the wishing well
Your best friend didn't know what to do
I walked upon the ancient hallway
Down to your bedroom to get to you

You've been keeping count of the boys of the lips you bite
Spiking all your own drinks at the start of every night
It's late again and we're barely friends, facts you forget or at least pretend to
It's true, I'm no good for me or you

And I'll be your curse, the one you tell your friends about
Pills from the nurse fall like snow into the sea
So when it hurts don't fret upon my whereabouts
Just remember you're still young and you're still free

So forget about me

I've been overthinking every night and day this week
Been knocking nails into my ears to block out the words you speak
See I know you and all the things you do
Too much of a wreck to know what to expect. Break up. Break down. 22

And I'll be your curse, the one you tell your friends about
Pills from the nurse fall like snow into the sea
So when it hurts don't fret upon my whereabouts
Just remember you're still young and you're still free

And when you're dreaming in your bed
And when you're dreaming in the night
From the place of your birth to the ends of the earth
Our void is 'love in decline'

Your curse, the one you tell your friends about
Pills from the nurse fall like snow into the sea
So when it hurts don't fret upon my whereabouts
Just remember you're still young and you're still free

So forget about me
Yeah forget about me
Me
Me
