You never speak the truth You never say what you mean Well, I never loved you more Than when you set yourself free No more visits to your bed No more keeping charming things you’ve said As a reward for working twice as hard For only half of your heart The buffalo and the bird, the stones, the caricature The key around my neck is yours once again
For someone who wishes to be left lonely You’ve sure gathered quite the exclusive group of company Don’t consider me, I’ll leave you alone I’ll leave you be to dance around with your disease You separate yourself, it seems an easy way out A restless rhythmic routine A habit of losing what you’ve found But you promised in the past that you’d be around for me A silly promise for the future That you obviously could not keep The love in a pack of cigarettes, the bracelet on your wrist The key around my neck is yours once again
For someone who wishes to be left lonely You’ve sure gathered quite the selective group of company Don’t consider me, I’ll leave you alone I’ll leave you be to dance around with your disease You don’t need me to dance around with your disease Oh to waltz around with your disease Yeah, you will
