You're not the first to want to 'save' me
To take me from night to day...

The cover looked appealing
Albeit the spine slightly cracked...

Don't promise me a future
Don't lay down hope for me...

I've been creeping round now for some time
I'm sorry that I lied...

Drag your lies across my skin
I want to feel the pain...

Monday's child is fair of face
The magazine covers she will grace...

Holding on for dear life
Waiting for the storm to pass...

Darjeeling, green or builders
In a teacup or a mug...

A sphere of fluff is all that's left
To rest my hopes upon...

Perched on the edge of your world
My legs dangling over the side...

Oh my god, would you look at that!
The sky just emptied with snow...

Remove the signs and shut up shop
Dismantle my pride, just take the lot...
