lyrics

MATCH POINT

What’s going on behind my green eye?
What’s going on inside all my trials?
Once I approached you alone
You turned away and answered the phone with phony smiles

Unsettling calm in the eye of the storm
Gave us shelter from the spinning hands
A moment of silence, unspoken violence
You while way, a cache of sound

Trickles through, spirals down
Tensions grew, without a sound

In a rush of shout and screams
The cat clawed through the bag
Dashing all of your hopes and dreams
The cat taught the dog to wag

The tale you tell, power and wealth
You know it so well, it sells itself
Another story rife with deceiving
Each time you leave your one step closer to leaving me on the shelf

Smallest bits of dirt always circle round the drain
You try to wash the ring but can’t erase the stain
My hand slid up your skirt, your fingers stroke my brain
An ounce of jealousy, a measure of pain

Tempers arising, the flames have all been fanned
You while away, a cache of sand
A grain a day, counting the hours
You while away, pulling petals from flowers
She loves me, she loves me not…
