[Verse 1 : Peter Doherty]. No one can hold a light to your misery. You're the number one. Being hard done. Hard done by. You'll get by with your smile.
If you get tired. Of just hanging around. Pick up a guitar. And spin a web of sound. . And then you could be. Strung out all day. With lovers and clowns.
Woke up again. To my chagrin. Getting sick and tired of. Feeling sick and tired again. I tried to write. 'Cause I got the right. To make it look as if.
Well life is short. We spend all our time. Just fucking fighting my friend. Well a soul can't be bought. Not with a cheap rhyme. And I know that when I die.
I got 'round to singing 'bout. this gang of gin I'm in. then you'll know most certainly. the kind of game i'm in. . just talking 'bout. just slinging 'bout.
The ideal girl, in London from France. Came over then left me, she left me entranced. Now I have to get by once again on my own. Nothing but memories.
I'm running away with you,. That's all I ever do,. And that's all we ever mean,. But I forgive you everything.... . Meet me at the railroad bar,. About seven o'clock,.
Yeah!. Don't look back into the sun. Now you know that the time has come. And they said it would never come for you oh oh oh. . Oh my friend you haven't changed.
Ahh, don't be shy. Don't be shy. For if you are shy for tomorrow. You'll be shy for. One thousand days, yea. Hey, hey, hey, hey. . Don't be shy. Don't be shy.
Do you know me? I don't think so!. Do you know me? I don't think so!. You romanticize the dark and gloomy past. Trying to escape from the underclass. You darkened the bright and beautiful day.
My love wrote the words to the saddest songs. The songs that says that life's too long. And the moon is always blue and just because. . I wish you'd sing me those other songs again?.
From way far across the sea. Came an Eritrean maiden she. Had a one track mind and eyes funny. Half blinded in a war. With a pale young Anglican. Who said he'd help her all he can.
What you try to do to me?. It seems to come so naturally. How you annoy me. How you destroy me. . And everywhere I'm walking like a cyclone. But don't mind me.
An ending, fitting for the start.. You twisted'n'tore our love apart.. Your life, fingers through the dark.. Shattered the lamp, into darkness it cast us..
An ending fitting for the start. You twist and tore our love apart. Your light fingers through the dark. Shattered the lamp, into darkness it cast us all.
There's a campaign of hate. It's waiting at the school gates. Not for what I am aware. Must be what you wrote. What you write, mmm. You swore that you'd swear.
You're walkin' like you never seen the light. Since you're walkin' like it every night. But I've never seen you dance. And I've never heard you sing. So how can it mean a single thing?.
I'll never really understand. why I believe you,. you're so sly and underhand. . I think I'll leave you now. with everything I stole since we met. Stole no kisses just some books.
I flight near the chaos out of reality. Made of powers cast of this elegy. I hate fucking physical attraction. Proof of image is only satisfaction. I must believe and I must deserve.
