Frank Turner - Worse Things Happen At Sea lyrics

rate me

Honestly, relax my dear, it's clear that we are done.<br />

It doesn't take a scientist to figure out that one.<br />

It's obvious, the way you move, the way you hold your head, <br />

The way you hide your pretty eyes and shift across the bed.<br />

<br />

Honestly, I'll be fine, this isn't my first time.<br />

I've taken blows before and every time I have survived.<br />

You made it clear you didn't care, you never did pretend, <br />

And in the end at least you never try to fuck my friends.<br />

<br />

Well honestly it doesn't matter, I know better than<br />

To cry over spilt milk, wasted effort, spoiled plans.<br />

We're adults here so she'd no tears, I'm sure we can be friends.<br />

I'll nod and smile and watch you in the arms of other men.<br />

<br />

Well honestly, your honesty, it has emerged unscathed, <br />

And I hope you're doing fine, because me, I'm doing fucking great.<br />

And I wouldn't want to waste another second of your time –<br />

I know my place, I know your face, <br />

So you hide yours and I'll keep to mine.<br />

<br />

You say "Worse things happen at sea", <br />

I say "Worse things have happened to me".<br />

Bitter eyes to the bedroom floor –<br />

And we're not going to talk anymore, <br />

We've got nothing to talk for, <br />

And you've got nothing to be sorry for.<br />

And I've got no one to care for.<br />

<br />

This is the worst thing that's happened to me.<br />

I guess worse things happen at sea.
