Breathless Heartburst
I didn't sleep at all last night
I didn't sleep but I'm not tired
I've got a good cure for my panic attacks
I've got a good cure for a quiet life.
I'm looking for the same things
in other people's eyes
but I don't find what I want
well it's the wrong wrong wrong
way of doing things
but sometimes it's the best way
.
I know what they've told you
I know what they say
I know that they've warned you
well if you listen to them
it doesn't matter much
because I'm already over the worst
and if there's anything I haven't said
put money on it, oh yes
and I'll get round to it one day.
Seeing a far flung hope slip by
it keeps me awake at night;
I can't help thinking
of where you are now
and I'm sure that you're sure
it felt like an ill wind
well that's not so strange.
All's for the best
oh don't make me laugh.
They're just words, words, words
that's all they are.
Only saying what they should.
