Wake up next to you, honest screw.

Because you always go too far.

So, you slip slowly out, to sit in the next room

And eat your breakfast in the dark.

It won't feed your cold and lonely heart



Hush, hush before you say

Something you can't take away.

You step out for a cigarette,

You wait and you watch and you try to forget,

How the world doesn't need you around.



You're helplessly hollow

And you're feeling the sting.

You've always had your doubts.

Last night's naked kisses mock you over your shoulder

They light you up, then they blow you out.

Then they kill you without a sound.



Hush, hush before you say

Something you can't take away.

You step out for a cigarette,

You wait and you watch and you try to forget,

How the world doesn't need you around.

Hush, hush before you say

Something you can't take away.
