What's that smell you ask, I think I know It's the smoldering of expectations long let go Would you suggest you might affect some change? Or are you banking that one decent poke might stoke the flames Is that your game? And I know such things aren't the same for you But what gets me through is all I ever knew And you can try but you won't bust through Still I won't hold that against you, against you See I am a sinking ship and I am listing To and fro with everything I used to know I am a busted pipe and I am pissing, away Everything I used to hold, I used to hold And I know such things aren't the same for you But what gets me through is all I ever knew People try but they don't bust through Still I won't hold that against you, against you So don't think twice if I disappear I'll be gone for a little while, I'm gone, gone Now where you been sweetness? I've missed your face Your resolve seems to have disappeared Without a trace Where's your reassuring tongue? Dear, how I've missed your voice Was it me who silenced you? Yeah, well I had no choice, I had no choice And I know such things aren't the same for you But what gets me through is all I ever knew People try but they can't break through Still I won't hold that against you No matter what you might try and do Hey sweetness, that's your cue
