Yesterday

Leave your lovers at the door,

Here we’re lonely.

Leave the bodies on the floor,

Dont mind the mess, I’m sorry.

Save excuses for the deaf,

We know why you came.

Keep moving to the door to your left,

It’s a place where you can forget his name.

 

Bruising fades, from your face,

But shadows stay.

A waste of energy to try and get back to

Yesterday.

 

See where they keep the hard drugs,

For the bad cases just like yours.

See how they keep them locked up,

White labels, clear jars and the grey decor.

Please don’t waste your breath,

Oxygen isn’t well supplied here,

It’s all you can do to avoid your questions,

Forget what made you face these fears.

 

Bruising fades, from your face,

But shadows stay.

A waste of energy to try and get back to

Yesterday.

 

Like a scar that changes in the light,

You’ll break like dawn from this dark hour of the night.

 

Bruising fades, from your face,

But shadows stay.

A waste of energy to try and get back to

Yesterday.
