Maximo Park - Write This Down lyrics

rate me

You said you wanted someone just like me

you let me read it in your diary

I'd like to write this out of history

it was an awkward patch

I had an itch to scratch

We spent the summer kissing

in a basement room

learning all the rules

you made them up as you went along

and then your passion cooled

you really had me fooled

I'm not gonna be around

you better write this down

I'm gonna leave without a sound

you better write this down

I didn't really need to hear the facts

but you know me I couldn't help but ask

and now you're telling me I need to relax

I chose the warmest day

to rain on your parade

I learned to love the sickly sweet

in order to meet

all of my body's needs

you swore to keep me in your nest

how could you tell a lie

about the birth of a child?

I won't always be around

day by day we assemble it all

and then we tear it away

Stealing post-punk posters

from your sister's room

(you opened your diary

I wish you'd never shown me)

Gossamer voices rising from speakers

in a prefabricated plume

Here's an entry for your diary:

dictation - are you ready?

I'm not gonna be around

you better write this down

I'm gonna leave without a sound

you better write this down
