The Living

Oh, darling, baby, whatever your name is,
The pain that you gave me is all that you gave me.
You left in shoes,
Then you had the best night,
It's all on your website.

I've been beating my brains out,
I've been lying my heart out,
I've been winning my mind.

Strangers gather round me,
And they shake their heads and say,
This is serious,
This is serious,
The living are haunting the living again.

I see you in screens,
Clickey-click again,
Licking your lips again,
Your jewellery's new,
Show faith in a lunatic,
Suck on a crucifix.

I've been leasing my mind out,
I've been blocking the days,
I've been lying on pavements.

Strangers gather round me,
And they shake their heads and say,
This is serious,
This is serious,
The living are haunting the living again.

We are only the living.

Oh, darling, baby, whatever your name is,
The pain that you gave me is all that you gave me.
You left in shoes,
Then you had the best night,
It's all on your website.

We are only the living,
I am only the living,
I am only the living,
We are only the living.

I am only the living,
I am only the living,
We are only the living.
