She sat at the dressing room table. He flicked through the channels on cable. While talking of love in whispers. Voices humming like dusty transistors.
(Difford/Tilbrook). . As much as I love you. As much as I care. I just can't pretend that. The problem's not there. We know all the boundaries. From where we both stand.
(Difford/Tilbrook). . There's no tomorrow. When you feel sorrow,. There's just the evening. There's just the night,. To drink the feelings. Right out the ceiling.
(Difford/Tilbrook). . There is a voice within us all. That says destruct. Go to the wall. And you can't choose when this voice speaks. Deep in our souls.
