Standard Lines
(album: The Places You´ve Come To Fear The Most)
Which of the bold-faced lies will we use?
"I hope that you´re happy"
"You really deserve it"
"This will be best for us both in the end."
But your taste still lingers on my lips
Like I just placed them upon yours
And I starve...
I starve for you!
But this new diet´s liquid
And dulling to the senses
And it´s crude,
But it will do.
So which of the standard lines will we use?
"I´ve been meaning to call you"
"I´ve just been so busy"
"We´ll catch up soon"
"Let´s make it a point to."
And your taste still lingers on my lips
Like I just placed them upon yours
And I starve...
I starve for you!
But this new diet´s liquid
And dulling to the senses
And it´s crude,
But it will do
It will do...
I hope it will do.
