Chop chop

I´ve got myself to blame for this
I´ve tried to compensate for everything I´m not,
and every face forgotten.
You felt the sun warming your bed
you looked so quintessential pressed against that cross,
in the face of what was lost.
Still I´m not asking much of me,
and you´re ignoring the matter...

You´ll shut me up and bleed me dry.
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
If nothing else matters, then
I will die trying,
thinking about you and I.

Three years on Friday since we met
you felt that existential kiss upon your neck.
how could we forget that?
Still I´m through acting like this feels right,
and that nothing else matters.

You´ll shut me up and bleed me dry.
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
If nothing else matters, then
I will die trying,
trying not to think about you...
Yeah

It´s on yourself and no one else.
It´s on yourself and no one else.
but without hindsight
I guess it serves me right.

You´ll shut me up and bleed me dry.
Cheap champagne and a disappearing lifeline.
if nothing else matters
then I will die trying
thinking about you and I.

Shut me up and bleed me dry
it´s only a matter of time
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
it´s only a matter of time.
Santi.
