These words you're trying hard to live by Get by, you'll never make it out with this smile This way of living's gonna eat you up This way of leaving will one day catch up Waste time, thinking about the chance that I'll wake up dead Wishing that I wasn't so badly fed Leaving it to fate to change my life for me Thinking in my sleep I'll write a symphony Wild birds are flying as you drive by This guy is always making out with this gal This way of living's gonna eat you up This way of leaving will one day catch up Spillt wine, not mine, leaving everything I loved except this town I never seem to get it right or write it down I'll leave you to get by I've got to make it rhyme I'll figure out a way to not get So tired and lonely, so what it's only It's only dying and I'm getting close I'm not quite dying, you know how it goes It's just the shakes make me comatose The will to die or drive to the coast So tired and lonely, so what it's only It's only dying and I'm getting close I'm not quite dying, you know how it goes It's just the shakes make me comatose The will to die or drive to the coast

Remember carving our names in the bricks Remember putting them back in the walls Remember lavender car you got fixed When we drove to the Lakes to the waterfalls Dropped your guard, you got sick We sat in the yard with your goals A job you didn't really pick You said oh when it rises it falls What am I talking about I know it's not about you What are you thinking about Let's try something new And every time I look into your eyes I see the reason why we can't survive This is a gunfight and I'm bringing knives Into the rhythm of our lonely lives We're ok, are we ok Until the very end my moon and back Until we're finally running out of tracks Remember you taught me tricks you borrowed To calm me down but then your cat Got stuck in the tree chasing sparrows The year before you left your flat Tonight I'll go to Claremont Road I'll walk two miles to where we sat I'll find the brick is bearing load I'll find the tricks are wearing out What were we talking about I know it sounded true What were you thinking about Finding somewhere new And every time I look into your eyes I see the reason why we can't survive This is a gunfight and I'm bringing knives Into the rhythm of our lonely lives We're ok, are we ok Until the very end my moon and back Until we're finally running out of tracks Until the very end my moon and back Until we're finally running out of tracks

I'm getting along it's my time to go home now There's gonna be someone with something to say about it I tried Sleeping at the weekends Take my medication Break up with my friends Give up the dissertation Waste another day lying down and scrolling Just no other way Thank god for all this living Alright, I can't help but feel Maybe, I'm thinking of taking a break now I think that I'll call it a day caus' I'm drowning and the water is waist high Maybe, I'm starting to think that I'm crazy There's all these thoughts I'm having lately I'm lying when I give you this fake smile Oh no no no no I'm too young I'm too old It's too late to go out now But you came in the room you said you're dragging me out now We had nothing to do We got maccies and beers You said "what's up with you?" I said it could take years To explain, even then I'm not sure I understand We went out in the rain You said you'd lend a hand I'm alright, I can't help but feel Maybe, I'm thinking of taking a break now I think that I'll call it a day caus' I'm drowning and the water is waist high Maybe, I'm starting to think that I'm crazy There's all these thoughts I'm having lately I'm lying when I give you this fake smile Oh no no no no

I'm staying out in case your parents call I wouldn't mind but Manchester gets cold You quit your job and suddenly got cool All of the grind I'm thinking I'm a fool I waste all day, your mouldy basement flat I kill the boredom with another Platt Fields walk The Gallery had this empty room It's been a long time coming It's been a while my troubled soul While we're out here waiting for the sea to save us all These streets all look the same And I can't find my way back home And look I can take the blame But blame can be lonesome Last night I parked up close to your old house I got reminded of your fags and fishbowl Remember trying to carry your couch Two floors up thinking it's impossible Remember cutting me a set of keys Last night I went and walked up and down Salford Quays When all we wanted was the peaceful life It's been a long time coming It's been a while my troubled soul While we're out here waiting for the sea to save us all These streets all look the same And I can't find my way back home And look I can take the blame But blame can be lonesome It's been a long time coming It's been a while my troubled soul While we're out here waiting for the sea to save us all These streets all look the same Now I can't find my way back home And look I can take the blame But blame can be lonesome
