The bed it was warm
 Nettles and ferns
 The evening it chokes
 The candle it burns

This disguise covers
 Bitter lies
 Repeating the joke
 The meaning it dies

Pass me your coat
 I'm not afraid to leave
 I'm letting you know
 I know what you need

I'll turn you around
 This beautiful town
 And then you'll believe
 When your eyes they deceive you

It's easy, don't let it go
 It's easy, don't let it go
 It's easy, don't let it go
 Don't lose it

It's getting colder outside
 Your rented space
 They shadow box
 And they paper chase

It never stops
 And we'll never learn
 No hope without dope
 The jobless return

The bankers have bailed
 The mighty retreat
 The pleasure it fails
 At the end of the week

You take it or leave
 Or what you receive
 Till what you receive
 Is eternity leave

It's easy, don't let it go
 It's easy, don't let it go
 It's easy, don't let it go
 Don't lose it

Incandescent light adores
 In adolescent menopause
 In little clicks you got the music stops
 The needle sticks and the penny drops

The summer's gone before you know
 The muffled [bad word] of relentless flow
 You're looking at stars that give you vertigo
 Suns will burn and then dust will blow

Honey scars I'll keep you near
 Our blood is gold nothing to fear
 We killed the time and I love you dear
 Kiss of wine we'll disappear

The last of the last particles
 Divisible invisible
 The last of the last particles
 Divisible invisible
