Paws - Anything Worse

Being lonely in bars listening to songs you love.
Rum and whatever they have to keep me from push to shove.
Bum a smoke and I hate your incoherent rambling.
I'd do anything to disappear now amongst all things.
Passing the house, we kissed in before you died.
Searching for people that I've left behind.
Faceless lurkers will always run this town.
I know them all by trade.
I have memories of things that never happen.
Wits and patience shrinking thin.
Invite you round but I won't be in.
Telling yourself that this is the last day.
Soaking your scarf with tears on the subway.
Is he the one that you've got a thing for?
Is she the one that you've been searching for?
Refresh your balance every hour.
Throw a smile to the wave that comes in to wash our lives away.
I've been wandering around Glasgow hoping that we might brush elbow. I can't think of anything worse than pretending that I still love you.
Is there anything worse than sharing a life with someone that no longer loves you?
