Slobberbone - Sweetness, That's Your Cue lyrics

rate me

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.
