Sorry - Slowly Slowly

Today I stared and I listened

I felt the charcoal light up in my home and

I felt ya kicking up the embers

Soft and nervous while the time capsule glowed

Deep-set eyes on the floodlights

Egg your cadence like ballet on ice

Heard you singing in the theatre

About brushing shoulders with the love of your life

Your teeth are grinding in your sleep now

(leave me alone)

I tell myself I don’t know what that means

(this is your fault)

The affectation in disclosure

I’m on Taylors road, down the street

Car crashes and the mouldy walls

Speak or shiver indoors, will hang, like stones

Body’s hollow on, tools

Cotton candy

Black confetti

All the things that won’t set the scene anyway

We were never

Really ready for it

We were never

Really ready for it

We were never

Sorry

They don’t get bored they just sit in their door

Sick of being hated, for something their not

Well and then you’re gonna haunt me

Then maybe you’ll see

That I am sorry

I’m sorry

We were, never

Really ready for it

We were never

Really ready for it

We were never

Really ready for it

We were never

Really ready for it

We were never

Sorry

I sat and I stared

I watched you light up my home

And I know, you won’t, you won’t leave me alone

I got, nothing, only one thing to say

That I am, sorry

Maybe I’ll tell you one day
