lyrics

There’s a wall.
It’s been built up between you and Serge,
So I decided to pen this filthy dirge
About the two of you.

For a time,
I thought the two of you were doing well.
Someone slipped on the peel of another’s spell,
So head over heels

Now all I see is you in the frame,
Standing in the positive space.

It was not
A single word that he said
It was simply that he might as well have been dead
So inaccessible

Now you’re off
Like the bumper of my old red car
You’re chasing down dreams and swallowing stars
You try to stay

As far away from other people as possible,
So you can pretend to be alone

And all I see is you in the frame,
Standing in the positive space.
