Lyrics

Boredgame

Night falls again, blacker than ever
Chesspieces burn in the fire
Shall I compare testcards on TV
Or watch an old film about you and me

This is what I could have done
This is what I would have won

I hear us talk, nudging the silence
Patchwork chat like a balancing act
Heaven will fall down on your sweet head
Long before I fall at your feet

All those things I should have said
Still going round in my head:
"You're only as sick as the demons you keep
Watered and fed"

Beautiful world, have you stopped turning?
These wasted weeks feel like one long night...

I'm killing the time that I'll pray for tomorrow
Holding my breath till it turns light

Just think what I could have done

Just think what I would have won
